Hello! My name Claire. My family got our first dog when I was five and I have loved them ever since. I am a stand up comedian now so I don't have as much time to have my own dog so I can't wait to play and spend time with yours!
"She was a pleasure meeting! And Nila really liked her. I really hope to continue having Claire for the future. I will definitely recommend. "
"Claire did an amazing job with my boy today!! I love the video she shared via app of them walking!! "
"Claire was just absolutely wonderful - she took very good care with my dog. I highly recommend her. "
"Bad day today with flooding and hospital visit so Dexter was pretty much ignored. Maria was awesome with him and never complained about the numerous potty breaks. She's wonderful! "
"Amazing walker! Very patient and kind! Extremely trustworthy! Put this nervous fur momma at ease! ❤️"
