I wants some walking buddies!

Pet care experience

I love to walk and I am looking for some fur buddies🐶to walk with. We both get the exercise, get outside and become BFF's. I have had fur babies all my life. The 32 years of experience I listed is the first time I loved my first dog, as an adult. Growing up there was always dogs, cats, rabbits, ducks, etc... At one point our German Sheppard Nicky gave birth to 13 puppies! They dominated our home for 6+ weeks. In 1988 is when Duke came into my life and has been in my heart 💘ever since. He lived to be 18 years of age. I offer: Dog Walking - It can be several times a week or once a week for a weekly romp. It is up to your needs and will work with you to come to a compromising solution. Currently, I do have several bookings during the lunchtime frame Monday - Friday. I will do my best to work with you but am limited at this time. Drop-in visits - You have a long day at work or maybe have to go out of town for a day coming up. Need somebody to drop in the let your dog out, clean up any accidents, make sure there is food/water available, and play or walk them for a little bit. Maybe you just got that special new puppy. You do not want them in their crate all day when you are at work. Their tiny stomachs and bladders do not hold as much. I am sure they would love a little company during the day. I do have time built into my schedule to take care of a couple of drop-ins each day. I also have evenings and weekends available. I want you to know I am serious about taking care of your baby while they are in my care. I earned a certificate in Dog Walking and I have taken the Red Cross Pet First Aid course.

Sally is the best. So sweet how she talks to the pets. My dogs love her. I was home today when she came to walk them. I got to see how excited they were to see her & they ran straight for the door. I appreciate the detailed reports including fun comments on their personalities & all the pictures.

Sally did a great job taking care of our bassett hound. We went to South Carolina for a week and she stopped in over lunch hours to take him out, gave him some exercise, and always had treats, which Sid loved.

Safety, trust & environment

I walk dogs in their own environment to gain their trust. I always keep them on a leash unless we have a gated area to allow some running and ball/frisbee throwing. If I do drive your dog to a local park, I have a seatbelt to keep them safe in the car. When entering homes I am cautious to make sure there are no escape artists around. I double-check any door I have entered through to make sure it is closed correctly before leaving.

Information Sally M. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to meet with you and your dog to go over some specific information: likes, dislikes, temperament, allergies, conditions. This will give both of you some time to sniff test me. In the first few weeks, I would prefer to walk your dog close to your home while we get to know each other.

A typical day

I usually stay close to your home so they can pick up the local news at the neighborhood fire hydrant. If you and your dog are okay with it sometimes we can drive to a local park. For all, I will have toys such as frisbees, tennis balls, tug toys that we can play with.
