I have been walking and loving on dogs at the Humane Society for 7 years. I have taken shelter dogs to training classes for basic obedience and AKC Good Citizen. I use click and treat to reward good behavior, like sitting on command and walking nicely on leash. I started out walking a neighbor's pet for free and now dog walking is my preferred form of exercise. It keeps me from becoming a "couch potato"! My cats are my children. They follow me around the house and bring me toys when they want attention. I have adopted five kitties over 35 years. Sabrina was adopted 2 years ago. She was so frightened of "everything" that she would bolt at the slightest sound. Today she is serene and accepts hugs and kisses without objection. Retirement allows me plenty of time to pet sit or to walk your dog. I enjoy the time with your pet each and every time. Weekends, weekdays or holidays are all good! This is not a service that I provide because I have 2 cats. In my experience, cats and dogs don't mix well, and so I don't attempt boarding.
