I love long walks with your dog!
Pet care experience
I just graduated from Hampshire College with a degree in physiology and systems biology, and that coursework included classes in animal behavior and physiology. I have experience working with, walking, and training dogs. I know the dog Heimlich maneuver, dog first aid, and dog CPR. I am an EMT and I have worked with dogs training for search and rescue work and ski patrol assistance. I grew up around dogs, have worked with service dogs in training, and the only reason I do not currently have a dog is that I have been living in no-dogs-allowed student housing for the last four years. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and older dogs, both small and large! I would love to take your dog for an adventure!
Reviews
Libby was fabulous. We were gone nearly a week and she took great care of the puppster. Super responsible and responsive. Highly recommended—and we will be using her again most certainly.
We were very happy with Libby. She seemed to take good care of Trixi and checked in often.
Libby is incredible with dogs. She is kind, loving, and always happy to play with any dog she meets. At the same time, she can be firm when needed and dogs naturally listen to her. Libby was able to effortlessly navigate my pack of 3 dogs, all different sizes and ages. I have every confidence that she would take incredible care of any dog put under her care.

Skills
Information Libby P. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog reactive to other dogs? Does your dog tend to bolt after squirrels/rabbits/cars/anything else? Does your dog have any special needs I should know about?
A typical day
I like walking on the bike paths and hiking trails around here. I can work on training your dog and reinforcing behaviors you want from your dog. I'm happy to play with, walk, run with, and bathe dogs.
