“Eleanor was very responsible and our family felt like she was taking care of our dogs well. We got photos of them every day we were away. She was great about responding and getting in touch with any questions or concerns in a timely matter. We will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“My older dog is blind and crabby and my younger dog has the energy of a toddler after drinking a RedBull. She did great with both of them! She is a vet tech at the same vet practice for many years, so I feel better having that experience if anything would ever happen. Definitely would recommend.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of the pups for us! We very much appreciated the communication and the photos. You put our mind at ease while we were away! Looking forward to working with you again!”
“Sonja was a blessing for my 2 Huskies, Ciera and Athena!! She was patient when they had gotten into mischief in between visits!!! I felt she truly loved them and was so attentive when she was here!!! She gave me many pictures to enjoy which helped my anxiety about leaving them!! She truly appreciated the reality that they are my fur babies and I love them so much!!! If you have the opportunity to hire So ha for your pets, don’t hesitate!!!!❤️👍💪🐶”

About: I’ve always had dogs big and small and love taking them on walks!! I’ve always been an animal person and I love to be active!! I’m a college student and athlete, so I would have to walk in the morning or the evening! I am almost always free on weekends though. I can walk your pet wherever needed! I live in an apartment complex which is dog friendly so I can take them on walks in my neighborhood or I can walk them in yours!

She’s patient, dependable, and truly loves giving animals the attention they need, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or simply quiet company. She has always been the go-to person for family and friends when they need someone trustworthy to care for their pets. I can confidently say any pet in her care will be safe, loved, and treated like family.”
