Walks, swims, ball throwing, love

Pet care experience

I've had my own sweet pup, an extremely sociable boxer-German shepherd mix, for six years now. Together, we go on hikes, walks, and very often to parks and fields where I throw her ball and try to match her endless energy. She comes everywhere with me. My job as a nanny has given me a lot of experience taking care of others' pets (dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities). I love to take dogs on walks and hikes, to [fenced] fields where they can run, or just cuddle with them on the couch. I do not typically crate my dogs, unless an owner feels more comfortable with that, as they aren't often on their own when under my care. I will love on your dog and treat them just as well as my (rather spoiled) own dog, who enjoys multiple exercise sessions and ample potty breaks each day,

My Petey is always in good hands with Karen! He loves her and her family! I'm so thankful to have met Karen for my Petey Poo!

Karen was very sweet, my Petey had a good time and enjoyed playing with her dog! I received multiple pics and videos on his stay! I will definitely be using her again! ?

I have a fenced yard and a social dog of my own. I don’t use a crate with her, but am happy to use one of your dog prefers it. I live a short walk from the river, and just outside my home is a mile long walking trail.

Information Karen M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how they behave around other dogs, and how they are in general in the house (i.e., are they chewers or diggers, do they require crate time, etc). I would like to be informed of how they are when on leashes, how they react to other dogs when on walks or in parks, etc. I don't have breed preferences.

A typical day

We will take walks in local parks, on hiking trails, or just around the neighborhood. We will play fetch and throw balls to any dog's content. I always love to teach a new trick or two, and my sweet, social pup will play with any dog she can meet until they both drop of exhausted happiness.
