I live for my dog and treat her as well as I would a child. Her happiness and safety is my utmost priority, and I believe in treating someone else’s dog the same way when they are in my care. My dog loves getting exercise, but I do not push her when she gets tired or wants to go back home. She is very nervous around noisy trucks and cars, so we plan our routes to avoid busy roads and possible triggers. I know how to perform the heimlich maneuver on dogs and the different ways to break up dog fights. I have experience administering medication via food/treats, eyes, ears, and topically. I will let you know if your dog exhibits any concerning behaviors (coughing, diarrhea, vomiting, head shaking, etc). I am patient & loving and will not rush a slower dog through their walk. I keep a close eye on dogs when they are chewing on toys/treats and do not let them put anything in their mouth that may be a hazard (like a bone that’s too small for chewing). If you are training your dog and would like certain behaviors reinforced/corrected, I’m happy to help, but I don’t believe it’s my place to punish someone else’s dog. Similarly, I know how important it is to keep some dogs on their diets or away from certain foods - I will not feed your dog anything you haven’t approved.
