I like to meet the folks. Then let them tell me bout their dog. Let them show me where everything is. And walk around with thedogs while client is still there. Dog gets to know me as well as I get to know them. Letting the client tell me what commands the dog expects at what time. Treats are a must for me. I always reward the dogs for good behavior. I took care of my friends dog while they were away. And I've always been interested in doing more of that. Going to parks..walking and playing with them are big highlight to me. Growing up with pets and animals gives me experience to enjoy my pet sitting. I hope I can be a blessing to you as I watch your pets.
