I am joyful and love being active. I walk about 3 miles a day but if your dog is really active I usually double that and take him on a beautiful trail by my home. So plenty of time to get all that energy out for puppies and active dogs. I love dogs so much I want one but my landlord won't let me get one so I would like to continue my experience of loving on yours! :) Dogs and I usally bond instantly but the timid ones usually warm up within the day. I do little things like calm them and talk to them gently. And then when it's time to play I get really excited and usually play fetch or tug of war. I also give great baths and don't mind getting dirty so if that is what they need for the day, I'm your gal! :) * update please read* due to recent dog sitting I have to ask for vaccination records and proof that they are being treated for fleas. please understand that multiple dogs come to my home I cannot put it at risk for the other angels that visit. Thanks for understanding.
