Dog walkers in Santa Maria, CA
I love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I will feed them accordingly to their set schedules and nutritional needs. Play, walk, lightly groom and keep them company.
For more low maintenance animals I will drop in multiple times a day to check on them and take them out, play with them and care for them as needed.
