Pet care experience

I have owned pets all of my life

I have worked at a dog daycare for 12 years and I have learned so much about dog body language and dog care and safety. I have previously worked at a dog shelter for even more knowledge and care. I have owned dogs and cats my entire life and I can’t imagine my life without companion animals.

Valissa is communicative, prompt, and always has tidbits to share about her time walking with our kinda awkward girl, a large Shepard mix Maggie. Would recommend her to walk your big dogs who need a strong leader!

Safety, trust & environment

At home I have a decent size fenced in backyard. I have a dog and cat friendly dog if yours would like a companion. If not that is not a problem at all. I do own three cats but they have their own bedroom just in case your fur baby isn’t fawned of cats. I have plenty of dog beds, blankets, couches and I big dog crate just in case. I also have basic first aid for fur babies.

Pets

I would like to know if your baby is dog friendly or has some dog restrictions. I would also like to know if your baby is on any medications and has any special needs.
