Please let me know if your dog has any sort of aggression tendencies. For example: - Nipping its housemate - Food possessiveness - Toy possessiveness - Reactivity to the doorbell or noises outside - Is your dog reactive on walks? Many of these traits are very normal in dogs but for the safety of your dog and myself it is imperative I'm made aware of these behaviors ahead of time. I’d also like to be made aware of your daily schedule with the dog/dogs. When do you take them out in the morning, when do bring them in at night. How long do you keep them outside for? What time are their walks at? Many dogs experience separation anxiety and stress when having an unfamiliar person in their home. I would highly encourage having your dog meet me ahead of time before we book a date so it can be introduced to me a calm and familiar environment.

I understand that similarly to people, dogs also have boundaries. Not every dog likes the same things. With that in mind I really like to understand what your animals are comfortable with while watching or staying with them! If your dog is high energy then I'll make sure I find ways to use it up! Whether that's treat games, going on walks or play time I'll make sure your pup is getting what they need to be satisfied! With regard to the owners instructions of course, I like to explore the local parks, walking trails or neighborhoods. As a retired track & field college athlete I'm always looking for long/short walks or jogs!
