We’ve just started working with Jenny and it’s been going great so far! She is always on time or early, very careful to follow instructions about training, and Beaux puppy is already showing positive signs in her walking behavior.

About: The dog animal kingdom loves my gentle spirit. From the moment I have adopted and rescue from the Animal Care Center in the East Side of Manhattan and for 3 years taken well enough attentive care of Uni have results of having positive encounters with any meet puppies of dogs. My close circle friends and other pet owners recognize that the dogs smell my dog scent within my clothes and skin. I truthfully believe so because they so friendly wants to interact with me. I am mostly available to dog walk services throughout the weekdays and even so possibly on the weekends from late afternoon to evening hour timings I like to make sure my space is cozy, fairly clear enough, and safe for the dogs to stay and be able to move around while I baby sit them. I make sure the pets has or brought its adequate meals food and enough clean water, it’s playing toys or garments that keeps them comfortably cozy and at ease, it’s managed medications if necessary needed to be consume, make it has its playtime or nap time hours moment if is needed.

Kate was wonderful with Brinkley! He is a very shy boy and she did an excellent job at getting him to interact with her. While he was reluctant to leave (as always), it was an easier exit than we've seen with any other walker so far. She asked great questions and is a great communicator and Brinkley came back happy and tired -- booking a recurring weekly session right now!
