Dog Walking Mooseheart

“Kate was really awesome with walking my dog Chase. I have a big German Shepard and I was worried about him being too much for someone. Kate is amazing with animals and my dog took to her right away. She had no issues walking him and he’s strong and doesn’t like other dogs but I felt totally at ease which lifted a huge weight for me as I recover from surgery.”
