My job schedule is very flexible & I love to be outside. I pride myself on delivering a ✨✨Premium✨✨pet care experience. _______________________________________ I will go the extra mile 💫 to ensure the WELL-BEING and SAFETY of your pet, as I would want the same for my fur babies. _______________________________________ As part of my ✨✨Premium✨✨pet care service, I enjoying running with my Rover dog(s). This allows your dog a chance to release their built-up energy - with the outcome of increasing mental stimulation & reducing destructive behaviors due to boredom. The best part? There is no additional cost! 🎉 _______________________________________ At no additional cost, with your permission & a short drive, your dog (or cat‼️) will enjoy the sights and smells of nature while on a leisurely scenic stroll through the park* _______________________________________ *PLEASE NOTE: if a park outing is approved by you, the owner, I will not start the clock for the service until I have arrived at the destination. This ensures your pet(s) enjoys the park for the full amount of time booked.

Taylor is an excellent dog walker and goes the extra step when it came to caring for my big dog. I felt very confident leaving him with her. I’d say overall she’s very considerate and I will be booking with her again.
