About: Hi! I’m Shawna — Unlike a regular dog walker, I provide structured runs to safely burn excess energy and reinforce calm leash behavior — ideal for high-drive dogs. I specialize in structured walks (working with dogs that pull the leash) and 2+ mile runs to help dogs burn energy and feel calm. I’ve trained everything from mellow labs to my current reactive cattle dog, so I’m comfortable with strong-willed or high-energy pups. Whether your dog needs a peaceful walk, consistent leash guidance, or a good run, I bring calm, confident energy and real experience. Let me help your dog stay happy, tired, and well-exercised. A tired dog is a happy dog. Caring for animals is already a part of my everyday life. I have a well-trained but high-energy cattle dog of my own, so daily walks, playtime, and structure are built into my routine. I’m also a runner, so exercising dogs through long walks or runs fits naturally into my schedule — it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I plan my days around being active and outside, which makes it easy for me to give pets the time, attention, and movement they need I’m happy to care for pets in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely, making sure they get the right balance of exercise, structure, and affection. I’ll respect your space, keep things clean, and communicate clearly while you’re away. I always aim to make your pet feel safe, loved, and calm while you’re gone — and make the transition as stress-free as possible for both of you

“Our nervous dog Catalina warmed up to Nicole right away. We’ve had her come by for walks several times and can always trust that our girl is safe and well taken care of.”

“Carlie took such good care of our girl. 10 stars!”

Anytime I visit other countries the dogs always feel safe enough to come close to me. I’m currently a full time psychology student but most of my classes are online. On my free time I would just spend it with my dogs. Therefore I thought of the great idea of walking dogs whose parents have a busy schedule. For my pets I take them on two small walks everyday. For one of them it’s a little longer since she’s 2 (my other one is 9) therefore she gets tired more easily.
