About: If you are looking for a reliable and experienced dog walker look no further. I have been around animals all my life. I have eight years experience dog walking, and pet sitting. I have worked with dogs with behavioral problems. I have taken care of old dogs, and puppies. In my experience walking dogs and pet sitting I have learned that anything can happen. So I'm always prepared whether that means extra bags or bringing a small water bottle of it gets too hot for the dog. Making the pets happy is what makes me happy!! I look forward to meeting you and your pets the next time you need a dog walker/ sitter. I just moved from NJ! I'm excited to learning the area with your four legged friends!
