Give Bassey all the dogs! She's one of those people who "get it" all around -- whether its your dog's needs or your potentially absurd dog-care routines. I used to leave a binder of information for my dog walker -- Bassey doesn't even need a binder. She'll remember your dog loves apples, but not carrots (unless they are cooked) and the he only like being picked up if you hold his butt. Why? Because she probably instantly loved your dog and wants to make them happy. While she's crazy about dogs, she's not crazy. I want to emphasize this as someone who has questioned my dog walker decisions in the past. Also, you don't have to worry about trusting her in your house. Everything in her house is much nicer than yours, I promise. But if you catch her while she visits, she'll probably be willing to give you some tasteful decorating advice or a good recipe that will impress your friends. You should think of her like Mary Poppins, but for dogs. Hire her for your dog and improve your life!
