Availability

My schedule is open but new dogs I will book solo so we get to know each other first. I can do day or evening walks, any day of the week. Boarding at my home would consist of walking your dog twice daily everyday, right now I am only booking boarding for one dog at a time except in special circumstances. Can do stays or sits in your home for two dogs max.

Information Tina F. would like to know about your pet

I can handle very large dogs but prefer if male dogs are neutered. All breeds are wonderful!!! Puppies are a handful but hard to resist so I’d be happy to take care of yours on an individual basis!

A typical day

It depends on your dog’s individual needs and personality! I can do big forest hikes or walks in the neighborhood for senior dogs or smaller dogs. We can play ball, or run around a park, whatever your dog enjoys!

Pet care in the Tri Cities

Pet care experience

I have been a dog trainer for the past 26 years and I have had pets all my life. I know how important it is to find someone reliable to take care of your pet while you are at work, or away. I have had my fare share of dog walkers cancelling at the last minute so I know the frustration with finding a reliable and responsible person. I am now 50 years old and will be there for your dog or cat, as agreed and as needed. I recently lost my big Rhodesian Ridgeback. We hiked every day for his ten year life. He was a well trained (by me) but spoiled boy who slept in my bed and was allowed on the sofa. I would treat yours based on your own rules but they would be loved and completely cared for. I find myself not wanting another dog of my own just yet but wanting to take care of others while I have the time. * Doggy day care max 8 hrs * House sit at your home two dogs max * Boarding in my home 1 dog max at a time except in special circumstances * Dog walking one hour up to 3 dogs max * Home visits 20-30 minutes

Tina went above and beyond caring for my dog while we were away for the weekend. She made my dog feel so comfortable, safe, and engaged that I never had to worry while on vacation. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands. I can't recommend Tina enough and will absolutely book with her again!

Couldn’t have been more fortunate to find Tina available on short notice. Wonderful lady with years of dog experience. Tina bonded with our dog Molly right away. We were able to enjoy our time away worry free knowing Molly was in great hands Highly recommend Tina!

Tina is absolutely amazing with dogs! Dogs are her love and passion. Her knowledge, training and experience that she shared with me in training my puppy was incredible - for ever grateful!

It was obvious from the start that our dog was in good hands with Tina. She has a natural way with dogs and it’s obvious she genuinely loves them. You can tell she really understands dog behaviour and knows how to work with them. She’s confident, patient, and clearly has a lot of experience training and handling dogs, which made us feel completely comfortable leaving our pup with her. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and had been well looked after. I would definitely leave him with Tina again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter.
