Hello! I have owned three large black labs over my lifetime and with each one, I have trained, walked, fed, and played with them. They have given me an appreciation for all dogs, and because each new dog I meet brings me so much joy, I love making them happy with lots of attention and whatever they need. I can read their body language to assess the kind of care or treatment they are receptive to. I am also a very active and outdoorsy person, and would greatly enjoy taking your dog(s) on walks (and runs as well!) and would make sure they enjoy their walk or play time just as much. I am capable of handling multiple dogs at once, of varying sizes and I am committed to caring for your pets just as if they are my own. I love establishing a trusted bond with dogs and hope I get the chance to do just that with your pet! I am compassionate, reliable, trustworthy, and enthusiastic. Please consider me for your pet needs! When dog walking, I know and can enforce commands like sit, come, heel, place, etc. and have experience walking and running with dogs from small to large. For house/pet sitting, I have experience staying at and taking care of homes and the pets in them for days to weeks at a time. I am committed to making sure the pets are comfortable and not anxious about being without their owner(s). I also have personal experience administering any necessary medications to both dogs and cats during that time. You're barking up the right tree with me! (Sorry I love the puns)
