Reactive-Dog Experienced Walker
Pet care experience
I am a dog mom to two amazing pups and frequently care for and train dogs for friends and family. My 80lb Rottie mix is reactive and I do extensive training with him so I am familiar with all balanced and positive training methods and tools you might use with your dog. I am committed to being patient and holding dogs accountable so that they can enjoy their best lives. I specialize in working dogs, sporting dogs, terriers, and herders but love all dogs of all shapes and ages and sizes. I can’t wait to love on your pet!
Reviews
Annette walked a shy dog I am temporarily caring for. Thank you!
Mina loves her. Annette is great to work with
Annette is wonderful! She walked my giant breed dog this past week and did a fabulous job! She is reliable, capable and pleasant. There can be several off-leash dogs in my neighborhood, so safety for my dog is always a concern. I was confident my dog was in good hands this week with Annette!?
Annette stood out for me because of her experience with reactive dogs. I needed someone who would be able to handle a dog barking at them loudly when they come in our house. We did a meet and greet and practiced this situation. I was satisfied that she would be able to get a leash on him so we scheduled a walk. First time walk worked out and I will hire her again!

Safety, trust & environment
I know how important it is for your dogs to have structure, routine, enrichment and love and I am committed to ensuring that the boundaries and rules you have set for your dog are followed to the T while caring for them. I love training and caring for dogs, it is a responsibility I do not take lightly and I will care for your animals as I do for my own.
Information Annette P. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your dog’s likes and dislikes, how they are with other dogs, other animals, specific environments, and if they are reactive - any triggers you notice and what you are doing to work on this so I can continue your progress. I want to make sure I take the best care of your dog possible so I would love to learn as much about them as possible
A typical day
I love to make sure your dog receives the play, mental stimulation, physical activity and affection that they need. I love playing with and training dogs in home and out and about in new environments. I do not take dogs to dog parks for liability purposes but am happy to expose and exercise them in fun and safe environments.
