Dogs are family, love them as such!

Pet care experience

I have bee watching and loving dogs for years and am the dog mom to Barley, my 3-month-old Golden Retriever. Services & Skills: Walking/Running I am comfortable with off leash walking if the dog is trained. I also have experience running reasonable distances (3/4 miles) with dogs. I am even training my puppy to run with me at the moment. Puppy Training I have experience with training a puppy from the start of potty training and teaching them how to "tell you" they need to go outside. For this, I use positive reinforcement and small treats to start. Mild grooming bathing and brushing Playdates Bringing dogs to dog parks and the like for social interaction, occasional visits to dog-friendly restaurants when the weather is nice.

Information Amanda S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog is a friendly dog. Having a dog already in the home and a very social atmosphere it will be important to know how your dog handles other dogs and strangers in a home and social setting. The size of your dog is also important to know.

A typical day

While staying in our home your dog can count on daily walks, playtime with Barley, long naps, lots of tug of war, freedom to roam the backyard, occasional trips to New Realm for lots of doggie play, trips to Sawdust Road coffee shop for sunbathing and lots of pets from fellow patrons, the occasional run (if the dog is accustomed to running), the occasional special treat, and lots of loving.
