“I love kids in fur coats!”
My name is Ann! Dogs have always been part of my life. I learned to walk holding onto the back of a Bearded Collie,& my first word was Doodle, the name of our dog! I am a dog and cat mom. I have a 3 year old Anatolian Shepherd, Levi,& 2 cats,DonJulio & Elwood. Levi & I are very active. We run 5K's, hike, play with his friends, go to school, and snuggle together. My boys are my children in fur coats. I understand the love you have for your little (or big) family member. I'd love to walk your dog!

“Tell your dog I said hi!”
Hello! I’m a recent college grad who is looking to love on your pet! I’ve been dog walking and dog sitting for friends and family and have spent several hours volunteering at animal shelters over the past four years. I have had a few dogs as family pets in the past, but I don’t currently own a dog, so I gladly take up any opportunity to spend time with any and all dogs. Hopefully your furry friend will be one of them!

“Must love dogs”
Hi, I’m Michelle and I have a 7 month old bishon/shihtzu mix! I was always the girl in the neighborhood that people would call to pet sit for them while they were away or to take their dogs for walks. I’m so passionate about Wag and providing the best care for your pup, that I recently became certified in dog CPR, safety, and first aid. Dogs bring such joy to so many people and I just want to provide them with the same love and excitement that they bring to us!
