Who I am

I am an operatic soprano, cat mom, and photographer supporting my career through animal care. It's important to me that I can do something that nourishes the soul and brings something good to the community that I am a part of.

I grew up in the Northeast Heights and I am passionate about bringing community-centric dog walking and care services to the neighborhood I call home. I've been caring for animals my whole life and I look forward to centering your pet's individual needs and personality during our time together.

FAQ

Where do you walk the dogs?
In your neighborhood or in a nearby neighborhood or park. If opting for a hike, the dogs will be picked up and walked in the foothills.

What areas do you service?
I'm based in and service the community in the NE Heights.

How do you handle extreme weather?
During the summer, I would recommend having your dogs walked early morning or early evening. If you need them to be walked midday, I'll drive the dogs to a green space where their paws will be protected from burning concrete. If you are concerned about your dogs being out in the heat for too long, we can do a shorter walk followed by longer indoor play.

In case of blizzards during the winter, safety permitting, the dogs will be walked in the neighborhood for a shorter span of time. If you have already paid for that week's services, the extra money will be rolled over to the following service as a credit.


Do you house sit?
I generally do not provide overnight visits. However, I am more than happy to come by several times throughout the day for let-outs, walks, to water the plants, bring in mail, etc.

Do you have insurance?
Yes, Barks & Rec LLC and all its staff members are fully insured.

How do you accept payment?
Cash, check, Venmo.
