I’m a huge dog lover who loves taking great care of all animals and making sure all of their needs are met and they are very happy! Aside from spending my free time working with rescues, shelter dogs, and fosters, I also have four of my own fur babies. I will treat your pet like my own! I exercise discipline when needed, but otherwise will give your fur baby all the love and affection they desire. Your dog will have a blast walking, playing, and getting lots of pets and belly rubs!

“Patient, attentive, and personalized service!”

I can’t wait to meet your dog! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have rescued several abandoned dogs and cats from the street. I am also a vegetarian of 16 years and a certified meditation instructor. People have commented that I get along better with animals than humans as I can quickly develop a bond with animals and have a ton of patience. I am also certified in wilderness first response, CPR, and Leave No Trace. I hope to meet you and your dog(s!) soon!

Dog Walking in Tacoma

Open until the break of dawn until the fall of dusk, the Chambers Bay Off Leash Dog Park & Beach is an admission-free, seven-acre park with one acre specifically for dogs to run off-leash. This beautiful park stays eye-pleasing and functional thanks to SUN Dogs – Safe, Unleashed, Natural – a non-profit group in University Place.

Perched on the edge of the 285-acre Wapato Lake is the one-acre park of Wapato Lake Park. Leashed dogs are welcome to explore the short trail that entices visitors to a small sand beach, or Fido can frolic about in one of the three completely fenced-in leash-free zones. Benches, shelters, and water are available, and there is no cost to get in. If you want to make Fido's day, plan on spending the entire day at the park, in order to do this simply find out what time sunrise is and then show up a half-hour before then, and stay until the sun goes back to bed.

Experience a piece of Tacoma’s history at Browns Point Lighthouse. Browns Point is home to Tacoma’s historic lighthouse and has plenty of places for picnics, so travel back in time during your lunch hour. Your pooch is welcome to tag along too, as long as she’s on her leash at all times.
