Meredith
has been walking dogs for many years, ever since walking dogs for
Poochersize in Seattle, WA. She currently walks dogs full time for Doggy
Business.
We have two great dogs of our
own: Jack is an Australian Cattle Dog mix and Chico is a
Beagle & German Shepherd mix. They're great dogs and have been with us
for ten years. (That's them
in the photo enjoying a nice break during a hike in the Cascades!)
We are members of the
American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) and
the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS),
and we donated our last two vehicles to the Oregon
Humane Society. Thanks to organizations like these, hundreds of
thousands of dogs and cats live rich and comfortable lives.
We started
Doggy Business
because we
love working with dogs. We believe in keeping our business small so that we
can provide the best service possible to you and your pet.
At
Doggy Business,
the safety of your pet is our primary concern. As a client, you will never see a
stranger coming to walk your dog. We are always happy to answer any
questions and we always provide a free consultation for new clients.
We'd be happy to provide you with references
from current and past clients and, as always,
we'd love to hear from you! Let us know if you have any questions or
concerns or would like further information about our services.
