To date, I have mostly watched the dogs and cats of friends and nearby neighbors when they have been out of town. Their pets all love me and always look forward to my visit. I truIy love animals absolutely unconditionally and they know it. I'm a very active person so walking dogs is great for them and for me. I can also help to train your dog(s) to walk next to you rather than switching sides and making your walk more difficult. I am not a certified trainer but have a way with animals that lets them enjoy the learning process. I also volunteer at Gateway Pet Guardians where they rescue dogs from East St. Louis and foster them and re-home them. Great organization that has allowed me to work with many types of dogs that also have many types of personalities. I walk them, clean out their kennels and just sit and pet them so they receive the affection that they probably really have lacked in their life. It's been extremely rewarding.
