Pet care experience
I love dogs! Growing up always had a dog and now I have a beautiful goberian dog named Harley. I have been walking dogs, running dogs, and taking good care of dogs for over 15 years now! I love running and I promise to get your dog tired out with healthy excercise - a lot more exercise than your average dog walker. Generally speaking, a leashed walk around the block isn’t enough exercise for any dog. Most dogs need 30 to 60 minutes of exercise a day or enough that they slowed down by the time you stop. Some things to keep in mind are: Active breeds need a minimum of 30 minutes of hard aerobic exercise most days of the week, preferably daily. Not all toy or small breeds get enough exercise inside the house (contrary to popular belief). Pugs, for example, are prone to obesity and need much more exercise than they usually get. Good exercise uses both mental and physical muscles. Exploring a new hiking trail, for example, engages your dog’s mind as well as their body. Live by the philosophy that a tired dog is a good dog. In one half-hour run, your dog will run up to 4 miles with me (depending on their level of fitness) and your pup will be dog-tired by the time we're done. If your dog is out of shape, I will start out slow with walking, and work your dog up to running with me.
Reviews
BJ was great to work with! He played frisbee with and walked Indy on his favorite trail, black water creek trail. He sent us updates along the way and was gracious with us getting in late due to traffic!
BJ was great! He gave us regular updates of how our dog was doing and she came home tired and happy. Was very easy going and flexible when we had to adjust our pick-up time. Would definitely recommend and book again!
