Happy Dog Happy Life

I have been walking and exercising dogs for 15 years for clients, friends, and family. Because my dog was a very active dog, we usually took on other very active dogs too. Dakota taught me that exercise isn't just walking. Dogs need variety. For elderly dogs, this might simply be slow walks and lots of sniffing. Sniffing is essential mental exercise even though it gets boring to us. For active dogs, whenever possible, we would go on excursions for an hour or more which involved walking, running, swimming, and playing. My hours and schedule are flexible. I will tailor the exercise to what your dog wants and needs.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I don't board or sit dogs at my house but will happily consider house and dog-sitting while you are away. Safety is a huge thing for dogs, even more than owners. They have to trust you to not put them in danger, ever.

It's important to adapt to the pet. If they have any problems interacting with people or other dogs, it's essential to know that. Will they try to eat everything they see? Are they stubborn and will stop walking if they don't get their way? ;-) I want to know everything.
