Raq, yes, as Hec says, I've used TaskRabbit and found it super useful.
msbelle, [unsolicited advice following] one thing I want to point out - since I have a dog with severe fear issues - when Bailey shows any signs at all of fear, be it shaking, tail under legs, etc, it's very important that you fight your natural instinct to coddle.
It was one of the biggest mistakes I was making with Cayenne, and it wasn't until Cayenne was 10 months old and I desperately sought advice from a dog trainer, that I learned the comforting reaction was the worst thing I could do. Don't even make eye contact with your scared pup, as everything we do that shows attention to a frightened pup reinforces to them that they do in fact have something to be afraid of.
It's best to ignore completely. And if she really is frightened, I'd recommend this leash.
A leashed dog feels secure knowing that you're in charge and they don't need to be. It's similar to the feeling a dog can get from a crate - that hierarchical structure that allows them to relax. The leash I linked to is great for leashing up Bailey to you while you're in home (or wherever) since you can attach it to her collar and then around your torso (so you don't need to use your hands). When Cayenne is showing fear because I have people over, or there's thunder, I leash her to me, but don't let her hide under me. And then I walk around the house or whatever like usual. Within 5 minutes, she's usually calmed herself down and stopped shaking, etc. That's when I let her off the leash.
