Dog walking would be lovely for me since I am in the middle of writing my thesis. Taking a break throughout my day is much needed for my personal sanity and productivity! Plus, dogs AND walking, say less.

Safety, trust & environment

Since I have two cats my place is not the best for dogs that aren’t kitty friendly, but if I feel comfortable with a dog I don’t mind bringing them over. I house sit for the gals at my barn now, plus I’ve house sat all throughout high school and undergrad. Following directions and being respectful are extremely important to me.

Information Rebecca Teresa S. would like to know about your pet

As always, I would want to know history, breed, and personality characteristics eg. triggers when walking by children or other dogs. It’s important for me to feel like I kinda know a dog before taking them out away from the comfort of their home and loved ones.

A typical day

I am good at following directions and will do as much or as little with your dog as you’d like. I enjoy taking my boyfriends dog on hikes around Corvallis, walks around my horse barn, and practicing our agility and obedience training. As a kid I showed my Australian Shepard in dog 4-H, so I enjoy training and spending time mentally challenging my pets ?

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm taking care of farm animals of all ages, sizes, and species. I now own 2 kitties and 2 horses while I am finishing my masters in marine resource management! Being an animal person is kinda my thing! I spent 6 years of my life shadowing, volunteering, and near the end, working in vet clinics. It wasn’t until I went out to sea for NOAA that I realized I wanted to go into environmental studies. For now I can’t own my own dog due to the lack of a yard at my apartment, but dog walking seems like a great compromise! Not to mention, I have been walking horses around my entire life, which are basically large, unpredictable dogs.
