Before taking care of a dog, it's important for me to know some key information in advance. This helps me provide the best care possible. Here are a few important things to know: How to pronounce the dog's name: This way I can address them properly and build a bond. Any special instructions: If the dog has any special needs, like medications or dietary restrictions, it's crucial to know so I can follow those instructions carefully. Allergies or fears: If the dog has any allergies or fears, such as loud noises or certain objects, it's important for me to be aware of them to keep the dog safe and comfortable. Exercise needs: Knowing how much exercise the dog needs helps me plan activities and make sure they get enough physical activity. Behavioral quirks: If the dog has any specific behaviors, like being shy or not getting along with other animals, I need to know in advance so I can provide the appropriate care and environment. Emergency contact information: It's important to have the owner's contact information in case of an emergency or if I have any questions or concerns while caring for the dog. Potty Trained: If the dog is not potty trained or has accidents I would like to know in order to be prepared and have the necessary supplies to take care of it. Others: Anything the owner feels that I need to know in order to ensure that the dog’s needs are met.

When I take care of dogs, we'll have lots of fun doing activities together! We can play fetch with a ball or frisbee, go on walks around the neighborhood, and maybe even explore a nearby park. I'll make sure to bring along some toys for us to play with, like tug-of-war ropes or squeaky toys. If the weather is nice, we might even have a picnic in the park and enjoy some outdoor time together. When taking them outside I'll choose safe and pleasant routes for our walks to make sure the dogs have a great time exploring and getting some exercise.
