I volunteered with my local SPCA since I was a teenager and our family always had cats and dogs. I enjoy walking and running with dogs, making sure they are safe while letting them get the exercise they need. I love watching their joy at being outside. At the dog park (if they like a social experience) I encourage dogs to chase balls, visit with dogs and run around. I feel it's important for dogs to sniff around and be dogs. I am strict with poor behavior, although never physical. I am happy to sit at your house and I enjoy being able to give ear rubs and hugs. I am an engaged and caring dog sitter and walker who will take very good care of your furry friend.
