“Four legged friends are the best!”
*Woof!* I'm Joshua and I just said 'Hello!' in dog speak. I've been told I'm a good human and often get wet nose kisses in recognition of a job well done. Dogs are simply amazing and I absolutely love them. I appreciate dogs of all sizes and breeds, but big playful pups are my favorite. When caring for your dog, you can rest assured that your fur baby is in the good hands of a trustworthy human who is as loving to your four-legged friend as you are. Your pup is always priority #1!

Hi I'm Abbey! I've always had a passion for animals and have been taking care of my own animals for pretty much all of my life. I love meeting new animal friends because each and every one is so unique. I currently am a Walker/Sitter through Rover and I love it so much that I'd love to be a part of the Wag community as well. The more the merrier! I'm very flexible with my schedule so I'm willing to do last minute walks, but my main goal is to have as many reocurring walks as possible!

Hello, my name is Donna. I’m Marleys mom.... I love dogs and wish I could have more then one! But my Marley isn’t too friendly and doesn’t like to share my attention... so instead I have decided to surround myself with your fur-babies!
