Book nowMy name is Hannah and I am a violinist. I have 4 years of dog walking/sitting experience. I grew up with dogs, but since moving away from home I've realized how important it is for me to have dogs in my life! I love to take walks and use it as my main way to exercise, but I prefer to do it with a canine companion! I can't wait to give some belly rubs to your furry friends!

Hi, my name is Amber! I’ve been dog walking for 5 years and training for 3 years. Also I’ve done many dog sittings and boardings. Experience at Petsmart, Board & Train the. wag! During your dog(s) walk they will work on loose leash walking skills and periodically checking in. I will use correction methods if they bark or pull. Also will practice leave it’s for things they shouldn’t get into during their walks. During drop ins we will practice appropriate interactions, play all sorts of great games for stimulation and practice potty if needed, leave out treats for “trick”’s training! If you’re interested in having your dog learn heel/stays book a training session and we can do that and so much more!
