Walker & Sitter, Joined 2021
Jan lives in Raleigh, raised a daughter and always had a home full of pets. After a career in museums, Jan enjoys hiking, tai chi and the arts. She is also a big fan of soccer! Time spent with family and friends includes plenty of dogs, as well as her two senior cats, Oliver and Neko. The animals, of course, receive plenty of attention and exercise.
Ray R.
Senior Walker, Joined 2021
Ray was raised by teachers, and this gives him a unique perspective on animal care. He takes the whole "dog dad" thing very seriously and believes that, just like with kids, how we treat pets has a huge impact on the way they treat us. He's always striving to understand animals from their point of view, which is why you can find Ray on the floor next to the dog at any given party. Some of his favorite training tools are positive reinforcement and modeling.
Ray has fostered cats and dogs for local rescues, taken care of countless pets for friends (everything from horses to lizards to rabbits), and started dog walking and pet sitting animals for another company in Chapel Hill. After relocating to RTP/Durham in 2021, Ray joined Peak City Puppy. In his free time Ray enjoys going to figure skating practice to escape the heat.

Overnight Sitter, Joined 2021
