Enrichment-based dog walking and cat care in Portsmouth, NH designed to support your whole pet.

Understood, Stimulated, & Loved

I don't just care for pets—I take the time to truly understand them.


By observing behavior, body language, energy levels, and routines, I am able to meet your pet exactly where they are. My approach adjusts in real-time based on what your pet is communicating—whether they need stimulation, structure, or a calm, supportive presence.


Because when a pet feels understood, everything else falls into place.

More Than the Basics—It’s an Experience!

This isn't just a walk or a quick check-in.


Every visit is hands-on, engaging, and intentionally designed—whether that means structured movement, enrichment activities, or simply being fully present with your pet.


The goal isn't just to get through the visit—it’s to create an experience that leaves your pet fulfilled.

Backed by Knowledge. Guided by Experience.

With my feathers in my cap—including certifications in canine enrichment, communication, and psychology—along with pet first aid, CPR, and professional training—your pet is in capable, educated hands.


Every decision made during a visit is rooted in understanding behavior, safety, and what truly benefits your pet.

The Origin Story

Playtime Adventures began with one dog—and the realization that love, exercise, and good intentions are not always enough. My story is the heart behind the P.L.A.Y. Experience™. It is also my journey: that seeing a need more than just the basics—they need understanding, purpose, enrichment, and care that truly supports who they are.


What started with one Australian Shepherd became the foundation for my thoughtful, compassionate approach to both dogs and cats.
