Happy to walk or watch your dog(s)!

Happy to walk or watch your dogs! I’m also happy to go on a run with your dog, teach them some new, simple tricks or simply sit around and provide them with some company (and lots of pets!). I’ve been around dogs all my life and find this to be a fun and rewarding way to make some extra money and get in a little more exercise. Let me know how I can help, and we’ll go from there! And if you have any questions about me or about my services, please also contact me as well! I want you to know that your pets are in good hands. Cheers and have a good day!

Our dog Lucy takes some time to trust humans - Shay was understanding and committed to gaining her trust. We did a meet and greet and she was comfortable for drop off day. We appreciated the communication and photos throughout the visit, as well as the flexibility during drop off/pick up. Lucy was clearly very happy, exercised and well cared for. We will be contacting Shay again in the future. Thank you for watching Lucy!

Shay is the best with our Remi especially as he gets older. He takes his time with him and is really sweet and gentle. He takes great pictures and gives great updates. We highly recommend him!!
