I own two dogs of completely different exercise needs and am very good at making sure both get their needed daily exercise. I'm experienced with puppies, older dogs, active dogs and passive dogs. I'm very good with a leash and have a natural ability to keep dogs calm and happy. The heat is tough these days and I'm sure you could use a break from trekking up and down your street with Fido. And on that long walk, I will treat your dog just as if he or she were my own (which, mind you, is a pretty good treatment). I also have experience with senior dogs, so no matter how old Fido is, he or she can go on a long stroll to experience the great outdoors themselves.
