Welcome To
The Fairy Dog
Mama

Sometimes dog owners feel stuck and they can’t find convenient, knowledgeable, safe R+ coverage in their local area. Maybe someone like yourself wants a more personal touch than traditional dog sitting and care. I created the Fairy Dog Mama to give all animals safe, comfortable, force-free options in the comfort of their own space! I have created a team (who have completed Pet First Aid and various Dog Knowledge education courses) to help people and their animals enjoy both their everyday lives and vacations away. Even if your dog has been labeled aggressive or anxious, our team has special training and education to help your dog feel their best, on their walks and in their homes.

All dogs deserve their own Fairy Dog Mama.

Why Fairy Dog Mama?


Our Approach

Our staff is educated and certified through The Pet Professional Guild and the Shock-Free Coalition, and each team member has completed Pet First Aid courses. We are proud to have a high level of expertise and understanding of scientifically based Force-Free, R+ positive reinforcement training methods, so your pet can receive quality care.

Peace of Mind

As a premier service provider since 2016, our local team of professional dog walkers, pet care specialists, and house sitters, are dedicated to providing your pet with the attention and care you expect in a safe and healthy environment. All of our dog walks are on-leash, off leash, or on a long line either individually or in small groups of no more than four. We believe that your pup deserves enriching, mentally stimulating, safe & fun care each day.

Flexible & Communicative

You can’t always predict a crazy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog or cat the attention and exercise they require. We provide per visit updates and we’re flexible to work around your busy life.
