Neighborhood strolls have never been this fun!
Our private walks are flexible and are perfect for slower/senior dogs, reactive dogs, nervous nellies and dogs that rather spend their walks with humans than other 4-legged friends. These walks are also great even for fearful or "not-so-sure" dogs who need positive reinforcement on walks to gain enough confidence to be ready for pack walks in the future. During our walk time, we can also add enrichment play such as fetch, if requested.
If you have a puppy who can't go on walks yet, don't worry! We can use the time for puppy playtime and cuddles as well!
​
We've got you covered!
We can take care of refilling water bowls, administering meds, or even handle feedings if needed.
About Us
Meet Our Founder, Imari Manning
Imari’s love for animals started during her childhood where she dreamt of becoming a Veterinarian. Throughout her high school years she volunteered at Oakland’s SPCA which furthered her love for animals and led her to enroll in a vet tech program. In 2013, she worked as a Kennel supervisor at a day care and boarding facility for a little over a year before leaving to starting her vet tech program. After 4 internships and 1 externship at pet hospitals, in 2016, she graduated and officially became an animal nurse. While in vet tech school, she started dog walking and pet sitting and valued this intimate, happy time she was spending with animals. This inspired her to go to business school at California State University, East Bay where she received a Bachelors degree in Business Marketing and started her first business, Elite Pet Society. Proudly black woman-owned and operated.
