Experience with shy dogs.

Pet care experience

I have always been a dog lover and have had several dogs in my lifetime. I do all of my dog’s grooming and nail trimming myself. I have taken my dogs to classes over the years and have learned many training techniques. I have been taking care of my neighbor’s dog for over 8 years - walking, feeding, playing. Have also boarded this dog for while my neighbor was on vacation for weeks at a time. My daughter’s two dogs love to come to “grandma’s” house because I spoil them like grandchildren. I am home full time so that dogs will always have someone to tend to their needs. I live near walking paths, parks and a dog run area which I frequently make use of.

Linda exemplifies dependability. She walked my dog every week day for years. It was a huge relief knowing my dog was being so well cared for. She also helped when I was in a pinch on weekends. Linda is trustworthy and never disappoints.

Linda walks my two Italian greyhounds every day. She often takes them on what she calls "the long walk"- at least a mile! She even takes care to put on their coats when the weather is cold and gives them treats for a job well done. The dogs are always SO excited to see her (and also very relaxed after the long walk!)

Information Linda S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the dog’s schedule, likes and dislikes, fears, habits.

A typical day

I walk on paths in my neighborhood. My usual route is 2.5 miles. Sometimes will go to Foxbrook park and walk around the lake or to Mitchell Park so that dogs can run freely. I always reward good behavior with small treats or praise. I will engage the dogs to play with toys.
