Experienced, caring dog walker

Hi I'm Val and I can't wait to meet your best friend! I’ve loved and owned dogs my entire life, and have had all different breeds from a bernese mountain dog, to chihuahua, to a Rottweiler, and I have a pit bull now. I have a lot of experience with reactive dogs, as well as dogs with special needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how stressful it can be having someone else care for your pup when you can’t be there! We can communicate as much as you’d like so we both feel confident about me doing the service. I'll always go above and beyond for your pet and I can be as communicative as you’d like during the service.

Please tell me anything you’d like me to know about your pet! For a walk it’s very important that I know any triggers your dog has and especially how they behave around other dogs or people. Let me know if there are any treats you’d like me to give your dog, if I should check their water bowl when we get back in, or if their harness is a little tricky. I know it can be scary to leave your pet with a stranger so please communicate any concerns or just things you’d like me to keep in mind :)
