Dog walking and running.
Pet care experience
My favorite part of the day is taking my dog for his two walks a day. I would love to have the chance to get outside even more and take your dogs out for some fresh air and exercise. While I am not currently a dog trainer, I have completed a course on dog training a few years ago. I have lived with dogs my whole life. Including 10 years of Dog Obedience training in 4H has a child and teenager. And 6 months of volunteering at the local shelter to walk dogs. I am also a runner. So if you would like to get your dog even more exercise, I'd be more than happy to take them out for a bit quicker paced exercise. I will not walk any dogs off leash, even in authorized areas. Any dog can be unpredictable. And I endeavor to remain in control of any situation at all times.
Reviews
Vickie has taken care of my dogs several times. She absolutely loves dogs!! I think her favorite activity is going for walks with dogs. She has been certified as a dog trainer so she is very competent in handling them. I would highly recommend her for all of your dog loving needs.
Vickie dog sat for me for years when we had our Weimaraner, Dante. I never worried while we traveled because Vickie was so attentive to him, ensured he got his medication, plenty of exercise and attention. He was always excited to see her. I can't recommend Vickie highly enough. If Dante were still with us, Vickie would still be my first choice for our pet-sitter.

Information Vickie K. would like to know about your pet
Before watching any dog, I'd love to know what they are sensitive to. Are they child and pet friendly? Do they have any kinds of phobias? Are there any particular hazards they react to (bikers, runners, load noises, specific other dog breeds)?
A typical day
Trails are my preferred areas to walk dogs. Where they can really get out and smell the scents of nature. But I am willing to stick close to their homes and stay on any owner-preferred routes as requested.
