Information Heather W. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know about if the dog has any health concerns or any type of aggression. Any a-typical behavior would be great to know before. Especially if they get along with other dogs or not.

A typical day

As previously stated, going on walks and runs with dogs is something I really enjoy! Overall I just enjoy to be outside, especially when it is a beautiful day!

Experienced animal-lover!

Pet care experience

I am a 31-year old who loves to be active! I’ve cared for various animals, dogs, cats, fish, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. This includes feeding, grooming, walking, giving medicine and of course playing! I grew up on a farm, where I helped take care of horses, chickens and other farm animals. I have no problem getting dirty. I love to go on walks with dogs and I especially love playing with them! I adopted my own puppy about two years ago. I also grew up with an English Springer Spaniel who was full of energy! I continuously help my sister who has rescued three dogs. I assist in picking up and dropping off from daycare as well as help care for them when needed. I look forward to meeting your pet!
