I grew up with dogs and cats with my Mother. I had my own dog Brandy for many years, (I found her as a stray), and she was one of my best friends. I have cared for a friend's dog's here in Asheville, I used to walk them three days a week, and we were great friends, (so I do have a local reference). I don't have any dogs of my own currently so I thought this would be fun to make some new friends and get some playful exercise! All I ask is that you tell me your dog's patterns and habits honestly, including characteristics that may be challenging so I can be prepared. I may not accept dog walking jobs of larger dogs if they are aggressive, as I am strong but I wish to make sure safety is thought about for everyone. Thank you for your time, I also love cats! :)
