Bridget can also help with: Pet transportation, pet walking, pet sitting
My family has had pets for all of my 28 years of life. I've been successfully able to care for my parent's pets when they are out of town. I make sure that all pets are well taken care of (i. e. make sure they used the bathroom, ate, walked, played with, etc.). I'm used to cats, dogs, and reptiles (mostly lizards and snakes).

I know how important our pets can be to us, so if I can help you by taking your dog for a walk I'd like to do that.
