“Lover of dogs, walks, and walking dogs! & cuddles!”

I moved back to the Lancaster area with my husband and our cavapoo, Ella about a year ago, and I’d love be able to help out other dogs and their families as others helped me out with Ella when I was working full time! I love dogs and have had them as pets my whole life. I treat all dogs with the same love, care, and responsibility as I give to Ella. I would love to be able to spend time with new furry friends!

Dog Walking in Holtwood

At first glance, Holtwood looks like a small town with less than 100 people and perhaps not much to do. While it may be true that there is a serious lack of restaurants and shopping malls, there is definitely no shortage of things to with your pup!

Holtwood is primarily a hydroelectric power plant town, which means two things; one, the town has one primary function, and many people who live in the town work at the plant. Two, because of the presence of the hydroelectric power plant, you know there is a giant, beautiful source of natural flowing water -- Susquehanna River.

Not only does the river run through amazing, beautiful land, but the region also has plenty of beautiful parks and forests for you and Fido to explore together. If you want to spend some time on the water or go fishing, you'll be spoiled for places to do so here! There are also plenty of forests and nature preserves in the area for people and pups who love to spend their days lost among large, gorgeous trees.
