About: I have had dogs all my life. I have been caring for other people's dogs in their own homes on and off for 8 years. I currently work as an independent contractor so I have some open availability for pet care at almost any time of day most nights and most holidays too. I do not offer boarding since my dog is very territorial and jealous but I do over night stays, drop ins and walking (and of course play time!)
About: Since adopting our dog as a puppy in 2020, I have gained a new found love for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. My dog, Marley, likes to come along and play with dogs too, when allowed. I work from home making jewelry, and sell at pop up events on the weekends. So I have free time during the day and a means of transportation to walk dogs and make some extra money on the weekdays. I live in a campground in Elberton, GA and can either walk the dog at the owners house, around the owners neighborhood, OR I can take the pup for a ride to a park in Elberton or the campground where I stay.
About: Your boy/girl is probably not going to like that you are going away, but I know how to minimize their discomfort. I am a friendly young man, very well versed in animal behavior with plenty of time and energy to devote to keeping your dog happy. I have 2 medium sized dogs. My pets are treated like family and I appreciate their company very much. I will appreciate your dog’s company as well. I work 1 block from home. Your dog can hang in the house, in their crate or in a partitioned room I have lots of options for all sorts of temperaments and training. I walk my two dogs when I wake up, then sometimes a short walk after work. Dogs are welcome to roam the house (1500sq ft). When outside I have a tightly fenced in yard, attached is a newly constructed 2 car garage (empty) with concrete floors perfect for cooling off on hot days. Water is always plentiful and refreshed often whether inside or outside. I am also available around the clock, and am never far from home. I rarely go out but at night I use a webcam to watch the dogs if I’m out. Animals are visited every 3 hours on days that I work, and I usually send photos when the dogs go walking or when I check in. Fenced in yard, plenty of room; I have 3 XL animal crates for visitor’s use if preferred. I also have AirTags which I put on my guests during their stay for added safety.
