I'm Kiki, owner and pet care extraordinaire at Big Puppin' Dog Walking, where your dog is boss! My love for animals started at a young age, having dogs and cats starting in my elementary school years. I fondly remember my first dog being a stray my dad found. Bonita was a very sweet mix that blended seamlessly into our family. From then on my formative years were shaped with the various dogs and cats we had in our home (Boomer, Neo, Zeus, Dugan, Catrina, Milan, and Jamaica). They taught me about unconditional love and warmth, responsibility and what it was like to care for a precious life.
I believe in positive reinforcement, keeping routines to minimize pet anxiety, and giving every animal the same love and attention as if they were my own. I learn about your pet's needs and wants and strive to meet them. Building trust with you and your pet is of the utmost importance.
I am a big fan of hip-hop and rap especially of the 90's and early 2000's variety. I wanted to merge my love of the genre with my love of dogs. I chose Jay-Z's song "Big Pippin" because it is the quintessential anthem of 2000 and with just one letter change could reference dogs in a throw back way.
The logo was inspired by a Rottweiler I had named Zeus. While I loved all the dogs I've had in my life, each of them were uniquely wonderful, Zeus was special. Because of Zeus and my other positive interactions with Rottweilers, they are my favorite breed. As one more homage to hip-hop and rap, my Rottweiler is decked out in sunglasses and wearing a gold necklace with a dollar sign, representing the Big Puppin' life.
