For over a decade I’ve been providing my dog walking services to truly wonderful clients in the Lincoln Park & Old Town communities. I pride my business on bringing an impassioned quality care to all of my clients. I have years of experience in understanding canine behavior, psychology, leash training, proper nutrition, elder care, and more. This allows me to provide a comprehensive service to both owners and pets alike.  I know every dog I’ve worked with deeply and have been honored to be an integral part of their lives.

When you live a busy life, it is hard to consistently provide the attention and care that your pets can demand. My clients have relied on me for their dog’s  physical, mental, emotional enrichment, potty needs, as well as guidance, recommendations, and problem-solving tips in all areas of their dog’s life .  
Most of all, they know their dog is being cared by someone who truly knows and cares for their dog.

I act as another set of eyes for the their dog's health and happiness. Working personally with each dog enables me to notice what may not be obvious. I am often the one  who first discovers an ear infection, lumps, bumps, potty troubles, changes in affect, allowing owners to take quick action. 

City living has many distractions. A smart phone needn't be another. Instead of focusing on social media, I am focused on your dog. My cell phone is for emergencies and keeping time while walking. 

For clients looking to strengthen their dog's leash skills, a variety of lessons are practiced repeatedly on each walk. Those lessons include conditioning your pup to keep to one side, refrain from pulling on their lead, to stop and follow as lead, curb reactivity to surroundings, and much more.
