Information Janie Z. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has special needs or requires anything specific. Likes and dislikes. Special treats if allowed and brand. I would like to know everything about your dog to insure his/her safety and to make sure he/she is getting the proper care he/she deserves.

A typical day

Depending on the dogs activity level, I like to throw the frisbee and ball. I like to play with a slightly deflated soccer ball and play soccer with them. Sometimes I will just sit with them while they play with their toys and bones as they just want someone their with them. The neighborhood has many places to walk and run. Various routes, parks and walking path.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Besides having a dog as a pet throughout my lifetime, I volunteered my time to help train service dogs for a local organization for the past 2 years. During this time I would walk, feed and bathe puppies through adulthood. I would potty train, teach door manners, heal, sit, stay,place, stay under table during dinner time and various other life skills for the dog to follow. I would also brush their teeth, play with them daily and show them constant affection and love.
