Dog whisperer for Midcity pups

Growing up in a big schnauzer household, I’ve had my own dogs for the last 5 years, have been fostering for 4, and have been working within animal rescue for the last 3 years. I’m excited to get to know and hang with your pup(s).

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small fenced yard with grass, and two smaller dogs who are experienced in having brand new friends in the house. I have a senior pup who relies on the potty pad, so we’re no strangers to that routine.

Bonnie Goodson is a dog magnet. She spends a great deal of her free time helping capture strays and fostering. (She was a big part of the "Skrim" rescue in New Orleans.) She is smart and kind and prefers the company of dogs. She is mature, responsible and cares deeply for animals. You would be lucky to have her working with your clients.

Bonnie was so great with my pups! they can be a little difficult and reactive during walks and she handled it like a pro. it’s clear how much she cares about everyone’s pets, treating each of them like they’re her own. I couldn’t recommend her more and will definitely have her back when i’m out of town next!

Bonnie has attended to my pets, and those of our mutual friends, for several years. I give her my highest endorsement, and if anyone needs an personal testimonial, please reach out to me. Everything I am about to write comes from firsthand experience. Bonnie is the person you want to walk your dogs, and take care of them when you are away from home. I can honestly say that I've never met anyone as good with dogs as Bonnie. Some people have this perfect energy to win over any dog, however frightened or high-strung the dog might be. That's Bonnie. It doesn't matter the size of the dog. Large, muscular dogs like pit bulls all seem to love her, and play with her, and let her walk them them like she's known them since birth. Yappy, defensive little piranha-like dogs somehow eat food right out of her hands. Doing animal rescue, I've seen her attend to scared, injured dogs, and witnessed how they somehow trust her implicitly. I think she secretly speaks canine. I trust Bonnie with the lives of my fur babies, and the keys to my house. She understands the importance not only of walking dogs safely when their owners are away, but also of their mental health: playing with the dogs, bringing them peace and comfort, making sure they eat, cleaning up after them, and keeping their environments safe and serene. Whenever Bonnie is holding a dog's leash, that dog is the safest it will ever be in its life. She's also good with pet owners. When I am away from home, I am anxious to know my pets are happy and safe. Bonnie is reliable and reassuring. When pets are sick or injured, she is good with giving them medicine and keeping a close eye on their health. She is excellent at keeping owners informed, and also at communicating with vets, when necessary. Bonnie has my highest endorsement not only as a dog walker and caretaker, but as a human being. I'm so grateful to have her in my life, and those of my pets. I'm certain you will be, too.

Schedule

I’m a freelance film worker, so I have weeks at a time between jobs. I spend that time working with local rescues to locate missing and stray dogs, so I’m already primed to walk dogs in the neighborhood.
