Book now“Discipline and kindness are two words that should always be linked!”
Hey you! Yes you reading this! Looking for a dog walker/babysitter/trainer up for any challenge? (My specialty may be dogs but I’m more than happy to take care of cats as well!) From the smallest cuddliest pooch to charging beasts who absolutely must sniff every single bush they come across... I'm the doggie caretaker for you! Currently I work at a dog daycare as a hands on supervisor! This has given me endless opportunities to interact with dogs of every breed and personality. I’m certain I can click with any kind of dog I’m introduced to! Patience, kindness, and plenty of treats can certainly go a long way!

I love on every animal as if they were my own. Your pet will be in good hands!

Book nowHi! I grew up in the Chicago area with three dogs but gained most of my dog care experience as a Volunteer Dog Trainer and Raiser at the College of Wooster in Wooster, Ohio. As a volunteer, I fostered service dogs-in-training (SDITs) for three years! Over the course of those three years I got to bond with 8 amazing dogs while training, socializing, and caring for them. I get excited to meet any dog, big or small, cranky or sweet! Outside of dog care, I am attending the University of Illinois UC for graduate school and have a career in wildlife biology.

I have had dogs my whole life. I’ve adopted adult dogs and I’ve adopted puppies. I currently have a 5 years old black lab who is just a goof ball. I have been a doggie daycare worker for 8 years, and recently switch to being a dog trainer. I have been training dogs for about 1 year. I have also taken classes in animal communication and behavior. I look forward to meeting and taking care of all of your fur baby or babies.

Book now“I just love dogs- young, old, big and small.”
I live in the Tri-cities area and am currently available for daytime and night time walks, training and dog sitting. I have a dog of my own but have cared for up to four at a time. My friends all call me to watch their dogs when they are not available. I live in a community with 46 dogs, all of which I know and love. I am not afraid of any breeds and can spoil or follow the strictest rules. I believe each fur baby parent knows best how they want to have their babies cared for.
