About
The Curious K9 Crew
The Curious K9 Crew was born from my deep love for dogs and the joy found in our daily dose of fresh air and exercise. After a lifetime of being a devoted dog owner, I’ve finally turned my passion into my purpose—and made it my everyday.
This business is a tribute to my original curious crew: my soul dog, Stella Bear—a wise and loyal Shepherd mix—and her goofy, lovable brother, Blue Dog, a towering Great Dane with a heart to match. Their boundless curiosity on the trails and their dedication to sniffing every blade of grass inspired the name and spirit behind The Curious K9 Crew.
I believe every dog deserves love, fun, and adventure. And since life gets busy, I’m here to make sure your dog never misses out on a little extra of each.
With love, Lea Grimm

Testimonials
I 100% recommend and trust Lea with my “beloved” Winston – you won’t find a more committed, loving and responsible person to interact with “your beloved”.
As pet owners, who are way too attached to their dogs, we enthusiastically recommend Lea as a conscientious and caring dog walker. We have known Lea for over 15 years. There is no question of Lea’s trustworthiness and her love of animals. She is not only an exceptional caretaker, she is also knowledgeable, reliable, efficient and devoted. She is always willing to work around my schedule on short notice and her rates are reasonable for the service she provides. More importantly (in our opinion) she is extremely compassionate, dependable, honest and she cares for other people’s pets as she would her own. We love Lea almost as much as our dogs do (and that’s saying a lot!).
