“Lulu has been wonderful! She has been walking my 10 month old puppy who was not great on a leash but seems to be doing well! My puppy cries for her when she drops her off! Lulu is very punctual and professional and has answered any questions I have. She also leaves a detailed report after each walk. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my own pets as well as pet sitting for friends and family for more than 20 years. I have two dogs and two cats. One of my dogs is disabled and requires a lot of care. I’m well trained to take care of any of your pets who require special care. I spent three years as a pet store manager and I can care for birds, reptiles, small animals, fish, dogs, and cats. I’m a high school teacher and so I’m up by 5am and off work by 3pm. I can come before school, as well as any time after 4:00. I can easily care for your pet in your home. Keeping them in a familiar place and on their normal routine. This allows their familiar sights and sound while you are away.
