A mature & responsible pet lover!
Pet care experience
I am self-employed and run my own business from home in Alexandria VA (Rosemont). We used to have basset hounds, but they've since passed on. I have a single-family house rigged for dogs with a fenced in back yard, a doggie door, and 2 crates available as well, (if needed). I have taken care of friends & neighbor's dogs for 10 years now and wish to do this on a more steady basis. My wife and I are at home all day, the kid has moved out, and we have but one cat which we took in 2 yrs ago who sleeps all day upstairs and goes out all night. I have a car, so distance is not an issue for walks or drop-ins. We live in a quiet neighborhood with nice dog-walk routes, including a path along a creek and path through the woods in a nearby cemetery which allows dogs. There is also an enclosed dog park located nearby as well, where we used to take our own dogs. We've lived in our house since 1999 and owned our business since 2005, so we are long-term people able to provide long-term relationships. We are mature, responsible, and reliable.
Reviews
This was for the second time Don watch Becks for me and this was right after the loss of my other dog who Becks had never spent more then 15 min away from for the first 5 years of her life. She was a hot mess with sever separation anxiety. He took such great care of her and is one of the only few people I can leave her with without her freaking out. She trots into his house like she owns it and without a look back at me!
Don took great care of our high-energy dog! He was also very flexible and accommodating when our schedule changed at the last minute.
My pups had a great weekend with Don and Karen. The photos sent let me know the pups were being well taken care of and were very happy.
Jean-Luc seems to have had a great time with Don and Karen — the second I arrived to pick him up, I was incredibly gratified to see how happy Jean-Luc was and how well they treated him. I will definitely be reaching out to the two of them next time Jean-Luc needs a place to stay.
