ABOUT THIS SITTER: I have lived in this home, in the Palomar Park area, most of my 50+ years. I graduated San Carlos High School in 1980. I moved to Canada around 2000, returning 2013 with my Collie cross Bella (she has since passed). My main passion in life is dogs. I enjoy the company of both dogs and cats, and appreciate and respect all wildlife. Other interests include spending time with my current dog Keenan, my family; friends, working in the yard, NASCAR, attending SF Giants, Forty-Niner and Golden Gate Warrior games. I have a great yard for dogs. I enjoy being home so I will be with your dog all day. I have never been without a dog in my life, and I never will. WHY I LOVE DOG SITTING: I have been a dog lover/guardian my entire life. ABOUT MY YARD: The yard is 3/4 acres, fully fenced, 1/2 acre is comprised mainly of tilled soil; there is some patio, and a built in pool (now empty). There are plenty of shaded areas, as well as sunning areas. Property has been in the family since 1964, has been the happy home to numerous dogs, cats and chickens (no more chickens). There is also a cat in residence, Gidget; she remains securely indoors. I offer Boarding. Caring for dogs occupies all of my day, and I can’t imagine a better way to spend my time. It is a rarity that I meet a dog that I cannot get along with. The yard is 3/4 acres, fully fenced, 1/2 acre is comprised mainly of tilled soil; there is some patio, and a built in pool (now empty).
