Akira

My husband, Alton, and I were inspired by our lovable rescue, King, to ensure other pet owners could have the same confidence we look for when it comes to pet care providers. From birth, there has always been a dog in the house, so the connection is just organic. Even though I am a part-time dog walker, I am certainly a full-time dog lover. In addition to meeting wonderful dogs, one of my favorite parts about this job, is the amazing people it has led me to meet. When I'm not spoiling your furbaby, I enjoy traveling and spending time with loved ones.

Carey

Hi there!  My name is Carey, and I have always had dogs and cats of my own from as far back as I can remember. Pets are an integral part of my family; my dogs and cats are my kids!! I have had all sorts of dogs from Gordon Setters, Border Collies, Hound dogs, Lab mixes and Rottweilers too! My husband and I recently adopted two cats…the cats certainly keep my husband & I on our toes as they are quite mischievous!!
I have been working in the animal profession for almost my entire career! I begin working at an animal hospital when I was a teenager and have remained at the same practice for over 25 years. I worked in almost every role from a vet assistant to a technician and now a manager. Taking care of pets is what I’ve always done and what makes my heart happy - I can’t imagine ever doing anything different! I’m so happy to be a part of the be BwB team and look forward to meeting you & your furry kids!

After dedicating decades to adjudicating for the government, I'm excited to use my skills to help ensure that all Barking with the Bradley's team members are an extension of what the brand embodies. I've been around dogs for most of my life, but my passion for them has grown over time. Now that I'm retired, I hope to spend more time volunteering at the Chesapeake Animal Services and spoiling my grandpuppies.

Tonya

Hello! I am an avid animal lover. I have had dogs my whole life, and I started walking and sitting for friends and neighbors when I was still in elementary school and worked professionally as a dog walker and sitter from April of 2016 until August of 2019. After completing my master’s degree in public history, I realized I no longer wanted to be tied to a desk and decided to return to my passion: working with animals! I strive to make sure every pet I visit feels safe and loved and I will take care of them just as if they were my own. Whether your dog weighs 10 pounds or 110 pounds, they are all good girls and boys, and they will receive the attention and affection they deserve!

Moreover, I worked as a full-time intern at the Ohio Humane Society in the summer of 2020, where I had the opportunity to rescue and care for abandoned animals and help them find new homes. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible, and I am happy to work around your needs. You can trust me to treat your furry friend and home with the utmost care and respect. I will ensure your home is clean and tidy and your pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for!

Alton

After buying our first puppy together (King), Akira and I met a lot of our friends at dog parks and puppy play dates. During this time, we would assist friends with dog sitting and walking. That's when the love and passion grew, taking care of other people's dogs and showering them with love. I have always had a passion for dogs and grew up with them as a child. I love working with different breeds and getting to know each one and learning more about them- “it’s like making a new friend with four paws!” I hope to ensure that every pet is left healthy and happy, so their owner doesn’t have to worry. They can know that their pet is being cared for when they are gone. Other than working with dogs, I have a strong interest in weightlifting and spending time with family.
