I truly love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I've always had dogs in my life and just recently had to put down my 14 year old German Shepherd/Husky mix. He went for a walk every day, rain or shine! I believe strongly in taking dogs for walks every day. It's great for their physical and mental health. I'm patient and kind and would make a great companion for your dog. I'm happy working with lap dogs and high energy dogs as well. Picking up after dogs does not bother me in the least. I understand taking care of dogs is not all playing and walks, and there will be messes to clean up. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty if need be.
