About: I have been around dogs all my life and I love to exercise. I have experience with dogs of all sizes. Comfortable working with reactive dogs. I am currently a student at ASU however I have free time so I can walk dogs on a consistent schedule after or before classes. I can also work some weekends and holidays! I have a three story town house with no yard. However there is a dog park nearby. I walk my dog often due to limited space.

7. Amber & Nico W.
“Amber and Nico were fantastic for my little pup while I was away. They were also very accommodating as I had had to go out of town unexpectedly. With little notice, they both stepped up and made Mila feel right at home. I felt as ease knowing my dog would be taken care of with these two. They kept my pup active throughout her stay and since she is a very social pup, they made many trips to the park we typically go to. I received many photos and videos of Mila throughout her stay and she always looked happy.”
