DOG WALKING SERVICE (Same Day or Next Day Service)
When we provide dog walking visits, we spend the first few minutes of our visit giving our furry friends some extra love and getting ready for the walk. Angela is trained to walk in a way that’s comfortable, relaxing, and fun. The first few minutes are spent “sniffing” so they can have some structured down time. After the dog goes potty, we should have time to pick up the pace and get some good exercise in. We will walk as briskly as your dog can comfortably and safely walk. If your pup decides to pull or lunge, we’ll use distraction techniques to get them to refocus. We use “watch me,” touch,” “sit, or “let’s go.” We always have treats and will use them to reward good behavior. If your dog wants to stop to admire the scenery or sniff around a new spot for a moment, that’s okay. Mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise.

PET SITTING SERVICE (with less than 4 days notice) - NOT available during holiday weeks
​
Your pet will stay in the comfort of its own home while you are away. Angela will come to visit to feed, give fresh water, walk, and/or play with your pet. We do all of the little extras as well as part of our standard visits (bring in mail, turn on/off lights, water plants, and make your home look like someone is home). We must provide a minimum of 3 visits each day but prefer to provide 4 visits for dogs and at least one visit per day for cats.
