“Alex is awesome and really loves walking my dogs! Very nice and walks the extra mile :)”
“Auden has given walks to our dog, Mochi, over the last six months. She was a lifesaver after I had a baby in January and it was harder for me to have the time to walk Mochi, especially in the cold weather. Mochi especially loved going on walks in Hickory Hill Park with her. Thank you, Auden!”
“Sierra did a great job with several dog walkings. We appreciated the notes and pictures.”
About: I’ve had dogs since before I can remember, and I have always been the go-to for my friends, neighbors, and family to watch and care for their furry friends at home. I’d care for your pets too! I am a medical student that has a flexible schedule to walk and care for neighborhood pets. I can typically work around my schedule to help out when needed! I have a cat, so I am comfortable inviting a cat into my home and providing necessary services with my own supplies.

“Fawn was wonderful with our pups. She spent extra time with our younger dog that has more energy than our senior dog. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I have always had a pet to take care of my whole life. I have a nursing background, so am comfortable with giving any medications as needed. I can bathe, feed and walk your pet as desired. I currently work part time but would be available to watch your pet on the weekends or make stops in to let them out or walk them throughout the day on days that I do not work. I have 2 dogs of my own and they are both very social and well trained dogs. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs who are well trained and socialized. I have the best of both worlds with an older (14 year old) dog who prefers to relax next to his owners and another dog (8 years old) who has energy for days! You can bet that I will care for your pet as if it were my own.
