Pet care experience

A Lifelong Dog Lover — And It Shows Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and that deep bond shapes everything about how I care for them. I don’t just see walking a dog as a task — I see it as an adventure tailored to what dogs do best. Did you know that roughly a third of a dog’s brain is devoted entirely to smell? According to the AKC, dogs can detect scents at least 10,000 times better than we can. Every walk I take is designed to honor that — giving your pup the time and freedom to truly experience the world the way nature intended. What I Offer Whether it’s an hour-long nature hike on a wooded trail or a leisurely half-hour neighborhood stroll, I customize each outing to your dog’s energy level and needs. I’m experienced walking multiple dogs at once and genuinely enjoy the company. Your dog won’t just be exercised — they’ll be enriched. I’m also happy to reinforce whatever training methods you’ve already established at home, so there’s no confusion and no backsliding while you’re away. Consistency matters, and I take that seriously. For pet sitting, your dog becomes part of my home — well-loved, well-supervised, and never an afterthought.
