Pawfect Pet Exercise

Pet care experience

Growing up my mom always told my family it was "either us or a pet" forbidding us to allow a pet inside. In her defense, she grew up in Europe, their pets were kept/lived outside, and she loves her house spotless. Ever since I can remember animals have had a huge place in my heart. All of the summer has been spent on the docks/marina in New Buffalo with that being said many boaters have dogs. The rule in the marina is that dogs are only allowed to use the bathroom by the railroad tracks, which is about a 15-minute process. So when I was about 8 I started a business on the docks and would take anyone's dog to go the bathroom/walk/play making it convenient for dog owners through The Moore marina. Ever since then, I have cat/dog sat while people have been out of town and in my college town take my friend's dog on a walk or to the dog park.

Natalia has such a heart for animals! She is constantly asking to take my pup on a walk and treats her with such love and care. Your pet will be so happy and safe with Natalia!

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to dog walking or playing, the most important thing is to ensure the safety and well-being of the pet. A checklist I made for myself to ensure the a safe and fun evirovernmnet : 1) Before starting the walk or play session, I make that the dog has had a chance to go to the bathroom and has access to water. 2) Choose a safe and appropriate area for the walk or play session. If walking in a neighborhood, make sure to use a leash and avoid busy roads or areas with heavy foot traffic. If playing in a park, make sure the area is fenced in and safe for dogs to run and play. 3) Monitor the dog's behavior and adjust the intensity of the walk or play session accordingly. Some dogs may need a more vigorous workout, while others may prefer a more leisurely pace. 4)Bring along water and treats for the dog to reward good behavior and keep them hydrated. 5) Always clean up after the dog by bringing waste bags and properly disposing of any waste. 6)After the walk or play session, check the dog for any injuries or signs of exhaustion. Give them a chance to rest and provide them with fresh water. Every dog is different, and it's important to me to tailor my care to the individual needs of the pet.

This summer I will be in 10 semester hours for classes through the University of Iowa which is all online allowing me a very flexible schedule. My assignment will be assigned to me Monday and be due either Friday or Sunday night. In between watching lectures and doing homework taking a study break to play or go on a walk with a dog would be refreshing and fill me with happiness.
