Aaron

Norfolk

I grew up with a dog named Terry in Virginia Beach, VA for the first 18 years of my life. I currently am a board member of the Norfolk SPCA and own a cat named noraA. I enjoy watching my best friend's two Golden Retrievers when he goes out of town as well as my sister's three Boston Terriers when she goes out of town. I already walk between 10-15 miles per day on my own so the opportunity to combine my love of dogs and walking is very exciting to me.

We are so appreciative to have him walking her on a regular basis, she always comes back so happy and I love knowing that I can trust Aaron with her and to come into our home with her when we aren’t home. He always leaves such great feed back and I love the videos that he send with each walk. We can tell she certainly adores him! "

"I always worry about my furbaby when she's with a stranger. Kelsie immediately made me feel at ease and Sadie was thrilled to meet her! Ik my pup can be quite the challenge when she's being stubborn so I really appreciate Kelsie being patient with her. Sadie refused to go with either of the two previous walkers, so I'm happy Sadie was happy with her walker. Sadie is all tuckered out now. Thank you, Kelsie! "
