At Wild and Free Pet Services, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to every interaction with your beloved pets. Dog walking, pet sitting services, and more. As a Certified Professional Animal Care Provider and a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA), I have spent years honing my skills to ensure the best care for a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and even exotic pets like lizards and hedgehogs. With a strong background as a former vet technician and zookeeper, I understand the unique needs of each pet and am dedicated to providing top-notch services, from dog walking and drop-in visits to positive reinforcement training.

Serving Grand Rapids and the surrounding areas, I offer mobile services tailored to your pet's needs, ensuring they receive the care and attention they deserve without the stress of travel. My services cater to all sizes and breeds, whether your pet is a tiny hamster or a majestic horse. I am fully bonded and insured, and my Pet CPR+ certification ensures that I can handle emergencies with confidence. Plus, with my extensive experience, you can feel assured that your furry or scaly friends are in the best hands possible.

I believe it takes a village to care for our pets, and I'm thrilled to be part of your pet parenting journey. I understand that life can be unpredictable, which is why I offer convenient online sessions and a flexible cancellation policy requiring just 24 hours' notice. Ready to get started? Book through Petworks today and let’s ensure your pets live their happiest and healthiest lives!
