The comfort & wellbeing of animals will always be my top priority. It is rewarding to provide an animal with exercise and attention, and I take that role seriously. I'm aware that our walk together might be the only one of the day for whichever animal I'm with, so I make sure to give that animal a fulfilling experience. And I truly care to earn their trust; pets (mine and others’) have given me more than words are able to relate. Safety: I am responsive to physical signs that your animal might be uncomfortable, i.e "skipping" when walking (potential injury or issue with paw), excessive panting, etc. Living in a dirty city, I'm always watching for the sneaky grab @ a cigarette butt or discarded chicken bone.
