Dog Walking Dodson

“Callae walked both my dogs early morning for a week while I was out of town. One is a puppy with lots of energy. She handled both dogs professionally and they seemed very happy!”

“Gema has taken great care of my adolescent dog. Penny is still figuring out the transition from puppy to dog and can still be pretty nervous at times, but Gema has taken great care of her whether it is walks or play in the dog park or at home. I definitely recommend Gema! Penny is an angel too 🐶”

About: I have been caring for animals for over 40 years and truly love being around them. Over the years I've owned and cared for dogs cats chickens goats and ducks so I'm very comfortable with different personalities needs and routines. I currently have a 17 lb rat terrier named Dutton who I've had since he was 12 weeks old. He is now almost 5 years old and absolutely the love of my life. Because of him I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and know they're being treated like family. My home is set up to be safe and comfortable for dogs I have a fully fenced backyard with a dog run, as well as a dog door so they can come and go in and out freely. I offer weekend overnight boarding and make sure every dog in my car gets attention affection and a calm loving environment. If you need longer boarding needs we can discuss that. Take care of something I generally enjoy and prioritize in my routine. During the weekdays Im home most of the day and maintain a consistent schedule at home with morning and evening care. On weekends I'm home much more and able to give pets my full attention. This is when I offer overnight boarding so your dog will have plenty of supervision interaction and a relaxed home environment. Because I have a dog door and a fully fenced backyard with a dog run dogs in my care can safely go in and out as needed I make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they're with me. I have a fully fenced backyard. With the dog run. A dog door so they can go in and out when they please. This gives the dog an opportunity to venture into the backyard as they like.

About: Had dogs my whole life. Mines a coward and we'd need to check that he gets along with yours first, he'll get bullied if I'm not careful, the poor thing I stay home all day and spend as much of my time as possible outside. Your dog may come back muddy though, the messier you get the more fun you had and all! I am home all day with eyes/ears on the pets nearly constantly. I also spend so much time in environments that encourage explorative play and will keep most dogs too busy to get bored and act out in the first place. If a pet did act out, there's more than enough space in my place to separate animals and allow them to decompress. If at your place, mine is kennel trained for the same idea.

I’m available for round the clock care or daily walks, and hour is best for an active dog but if we have an hour forest hike we don’t count the driving time.
