🌈🤍 For Hannah & Rosy, on Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 🤍🌈
Some clients come into our lives for years. Others, for far too short a time. But sometimes, even the briefest time is enough to leave a lasting paw print on your heart. 🐾 Today, I’m remembering two of the sweetest senior ladies who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge since being in my care.

HANNAH was a gentle soul🌻 Our time together was brief, as she came into my life through her connection to one of my regular clients, but I truly cherished the time we did have together. She was one of those sweet souls who reminds you just how special it is to be trusted with someone’s family member.

And then there was ROSY🌹 A ball-obsessed, snack-loving, professional cuddlebug who knew exactly what she wanted—and wasn’t afraid to let you know! Her personality was impossible not to love, and I’ll always smile thinking of her favorite things and the joy she brought with her.

One of the hardest parts of loving animals for a living is that sometimes we have to say goodbye. But I feel incredibly lucky to get to know them, care for them, and be a tiny part of their stories.🫶🏼

Hannah and Rosy, I hope you’re both young, healthy, pain-free, and running free on the other side of that Rainbow Bridge. You were loved. You are missed.
And you will always be remembered. 🤍🐾

Today was a first for me- snakes on the trail! 🐍
Bauer and I loved the first encounter- so small and cute! Next friends we encountered weren’t as cute, swipe for yourself! 👀 Bauer and I decided to make moves and switch over to pavement walking after that. We wanted to give the snakes their space since they were so active today. After all, it’s their world too 🫶🏼🌎

Thank you for being my why Willow✨
If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that Willow was my very first client when I started this business back in July 2025. She’s the reason that I decided to take that chance and bet on myself. Because why not, right? After leaving a job that no longer aligned with who I was becoming, I dove straight back into where my heart has always been: animals. Like many people chasing something bigger, there were hard lessons, growing pains, unforgettable connections, and moments of heartbreak while trying to find a place that truly felt right. Somewhere along the way I realized that maybe what I was looking for didn’t exist yet.. maybe what I had been looking for all along was myself. (I know, corny but it’s true!)

It had been a few months since leaving the job I thought would be my forever career and Willow’s mom’s post came up in a local community group on Facebook saying she needed to find a dog sitter for her upcoming trip. I had never felt so called to respond to something before and didn’t hesitate to respond to the post! A few days later I had my very first ever meet &greet and landed the job! The sweetest full circle moment was when Willow remembered me from spending time together while I was working at a local dog daycare- I like to think that dogs never forget their favorite people💛

And just like that, The Velvet Leash Northshore was born ✨

Since opening in July of 2025 I’ve completed over 500 walks and over 150+ overnights. As a one-woman business built entirely from love, trust, and a whole lot of heart, I’m feeling incredibly proud. All of the long days, muddy paws, early mornings and every small moment in between make it all worth it. There is no better reward than the love of a dog. If you made it this far, thank you for being here and supporting my small business, it truly means the world to me🫶🏼🐾
