History of Happy Trails & Wag’n Tails

Your San Marcos Pet care Professional started their business in 2006 in Southern California after taking care of a military member’s dog for 1.5 months. Since opening my business, I have taken care of many dogs and cats, but occasionally I have the pleasure of working with other caged animals such as turtles or parakeets.
My goal is to provide excellent pet care with an emphasis on pet health. From inception to present day, I continue to attend seminars on general health issues and how to treat pets holistically.
NYE 2024 I completed my training to be a Dog herbalist which a person who has undergone training to help educate dog owners on which herbal remedies may support their dog. The other certificate I received is, Raw Dog Food Nutrition Specialist, which is someone who undergoes training to understand all the important factors to go into making a well balanced dog food.
How does this benefit you? You will feel at ease knowing someone who truly loves what they do for a living is caring for your pets.
Advantage of using me vs. another dog walking or pet sitting company?
There is NO requirement for pet sitters or dog walkers to know anything about health issues or be able to guide you on products. My continued education in this area makes it more likely that I would recognize any health issue and whether it is really necessary to go to the vet (saving you money and unnecessary worry).
At first, I was nervous about hiring a dog walker. But Happy Trails & Wag’n Tails is such a great find. She has never missed a day, and she always sends detailed email updates on how each visit went. One time, She mentioned that Maple might have an ear infection, which I hadn’t noticed. It gives me peace of mind to know that Maple is in such good hands. I’ve gotten the same feeling from my personal interactions with her. She definitely has a special connection with Maple. I could tell right away that Maple felt comfortable with her, whereas she seemed nervous around the other dog walkers I considered.”

About your San Marcos pet care professional
The owner & operator has been a lifelong pet owner. I grew up having birds, hamsters, dogs, and a cat. I started taking care of pets for family and neighbors several years before I started pet sitting professionally. For many years I had a large breed dog that I adopted while working with a rescue organization (which is something I fully support). I am a member of several pet associations, an avid reader of many pet health articles, and even wrote a few of my own articles.
