About
My name is Bret Shepard!
Hi, I’m Bret, owner of Lucky’s Dog Walks! I’m born and raised in Ottumwa, work professionally at a local kennel, and have been walking and caring for dogs for years. I’m active, dependable, and a dog owner myself — with a Husky and a Jack Russell Terrier mix. The business is named after Lucky, my family dog who passed away and inspired the care I give every walk.
