Let's Walk, Run and Play!

Pet care experience

I'm a dog lover who can't have dogs right now, and I'm offering my services for dog care. I do everything from walking and exercising with dogs, to playing with dogs, to feeding and attempting to teach them tricks with snacks, to bathing and pet sitting. I also own a car so I could transport dogs to the park or to the groomers and back home. I've always grown up with pets, and my family has owned dogs such as Great Danes and Labrador mixes, as well as even smaller breeds. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes. In the past I have also volunteered at the Montgomery County Humane Society in Rockville, Maryland. For them, I walked the dogs, played with the dogs and cats, and showed the dogs and cats to potential owners so they could get to know the pets and I could tell them everything I noticed about the pets.

Information Marcia P. would like to know about your pet

Does the pet get along with other pets? What about getting along with adults vs. children? I would prefer medium to smaller dogs, but I think I could handle being pulled by a larger dog if he/she has a good, sturdy leash system.

A typical day

We can walk around my neighborhood and discover parks. We could play fetch, I could give your dog back rubs and try to teach him/her or practice tricks with snacks if you provide them
