Two greyhounds who never let a walk go by

Duchess and Ruby were my greyhounds, and they are why this business exists. Duchess came to me at 3 years old. Every day I would come home and find her at the door at 4pm, waiting for her food and her walk. Two years later Ruby arrived, and she did everything Duchess did. They both loved to be walked so much that it inspired me to have my own dog business.

I still walk every day. I am always walking my own dog, 7 days a week and sometimes twice a day, and I have found I really enjoy it. That matters when you hand your dog to someone else in Elkton. A walk is the part of the day I would not skip for myself, so I do not treat it as filler for yours.

Pet sitting that keeps your dog's day on schedule

Pet sitting means your dog keeps a routine when you cannot be there to keep it. Food at the usual time, a trip outside, a walk, and someone watching how your dog acts that day. A dog who skips a meal or will not settle is telling you something, and I would rather notice it than miss it.

Donna Thachik, who sees me almost daily as I walk other pets, wrote on Google that I have an equal rapport with the animals, and that “She maintains control. She takes time with them and talks to them” while they seem happy in my care. Liz Malin called me “Reliable with schedule” and said I walked her Shepard mix and did overnight care for over a year.

How to get started with a walk or a sit

Call me at 443-406-6694 and we will talk through your dog: age, energy, what they pull toward, what they are afraid of, and which days you need me. You can book a meet and greet, the same first step every daycare and boarding dog takes, so your dog has met me before the first visit.

Hours are Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm. If those hours do not work, contact me and I will be willing to work something out. Current prices for let-outs, daycare and boarding are on the pricing page, and the quickest way to sort out a walk is the phone call.
