I need to know about your dog's special needs, if any. If your dog has had past aggression issues (with people/dogs/small animals, etc), then I need to be informed immediately. Please provide your own leash, harness, and muzzle (if necessary). ***PLEASE be educated on what is the difference between a "flat/base rate" and a "sum total." I will give a final quote for my services as soon as I am able. I reserve the right to charge extra for the following: short notice, aggressive animals, unhygienic conditions (if overnight stay, I ask for a clean restroom and a clean sleeping area), or anything else about the request that would make things markedly more difficult. I request payment up front, either before or during services rendered. If you want to shop around for the quotes of other sitters and walkers, then that is perfectly fine and I even encourage it. Update: Drop-ins and Housesitting appointments require at least 7-day notification of cancellation. If you still wish to cancel, you will only receive a partial refund.

I like to walk my dog at a normal pace, and then initiate a faster pace heading back home (essentially racing him to the front door). I’ll match to your dogs energy level. I find emotional and Intellectual stimulation just as important as physical. My overnight stays are filled with much couch cuddling and attempts to teach new commands. Hiking with dogs is also fun.
