Pet care experience

Pets deserve love and respect too

I have loved dogs ever since I was a kid! I couldn’t have one growing up and it wasn’t until I was an adult that I finally got a handsome Schnauzer Mix. I loved him the moment he came to my home. However, over the years I have walked friend’s and family dogs. I am a former preschool assistant teacher and so I tend to believe the same patience, love and care I have for kids is felt in every dog I come across. Besides the mentioned qualities it is important to also consider safety. Yes, dogs need love and patience but safety is a number one concern. When I walk my dog I put on my eagle eyes and make sure I’m not walking him into danger. That is the same mindset I’ll have with any dog.

Dog Walking • Mar 20, 2026

So happy to have found Newell, a very nice gentleman who lives very close to me. New old was super polite, always on time and he really took the time to get to know Roscoe a little bit and let Roscoe warm up to him. We maintained great communication while I was away Newell sent several pictures every day and Roscoe seems content and happy. Couldn't ask for more.

Newell has walked dogs for me for some time now. He is reliable and super patient. I would say patience is his best quality. He truly cares for the dogs. I trust him 100%.

Newell has walked my two dogs several times. One is a medium sized dog who barks at every dog he sees outside and the other dog is a small toy poodle who walks on three legs. Newell is so patient with each of my dogs. The bigger dog requires a longer walk while the smaller one can only walk about 10 minutes. He is so caring with each dog and gives them the time and attention they need. I would absolutely have Newell walk my dogs again.
