Physician assistant walking for fun
Pet care experience
I'm a physician assistant with extra free time due to the pandemic. I'm looking to fill my time in a more active and meaningful way, so dog walking is an obvious choice! I'm educated, responsible, active, knowledgable about positive reinforcement training principles, and I love to snuggle puppers. I've owned cats for years, and have dog sat and house sat with dogs for many family and friends throughout my life. I'm looking to adopt a dog soon, and this is great practice for now. Outside, I'm an outdoor enthusiast, and will take dogs on trails if appropriate. Inside, I'll allow dogs wherever I go in my house, except on couches or beds. While with me, they'll be showered with lots of love. For discipline, I'm strong believer in using positive reinforcement only, so I will never use punishment or physical force unless explicitly instructed by the owner. I prefer only using treats (if appropriate) and/or play time to encourage good behaviors.
Reviews
Daryl was the ABSOLUTE BEST! She connected with my dog so quickly and he just adores her when she comes around. Daryl has excellent communications skills and so much experience with animals. Her background in healthcare gives me the confidence I need when selecting the right care taker for my dog.

Information Daryl H. would like to know about your pet
I like to know about their house training habits, any history of aggressive behavior towards humans or animals, if they have any destructive behavior towards objects or furniture, allergies, health concerns, and what their favorite treats and form of play are.
A typical day
I love walking off the beaten path. If there is a trail near you that you know your dog likes to walk on, I'd love to take them there! I tend to avoid dog parks due to the unpredictability of the dogs present.
