Information Al K. would like to know about your pet

Two things your dog will have to have for me to take care of it; first it will have to be able to handle uddels of love. Second enjoy the outdoors, big back yard and lots of walks...unless it is a small house dog.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks Around the block (quiet safe neighborhood), or at a near by park. If you let me know your dog likes the beach, love going to the river jetty between Newport and HB, very dog friendly. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Where ever they prefer. Time I'll spend with your dog Most of it, I am home all day and love the company. My wife also is around and will only add more love...

Pet care experience

I have a large fenced in backyard in Huntington Beach. Home full time to care for your sweet baby. Love dogs, love dogs, love dogs... I am happy to care for your loved one over night, a few days while you are on vacation, or just for the day while you are working. If needed and you are close, I can come to your house and feed and walk your dog. I have owned two other dogs, both living for over 15 years. Just read my reviews and you will know... About this sitter: I absolutely love dogs...You puppy is treated like it is my puppy, only problem is they might get too much love. Large backyard (NO pool) for them to roam, plus the door is always left open. I am retired so home all the time to play and care for them. They go where I go, and you will always get plenty of pictures... I have lived in HB for 33 years. I am retired and have time to watch out for your loved one and your home if you need. I have owned 2 dogs in the past that lived for over 15 years, and just love dogs. Very reliable and trustworthy to take care of your needs while gone... I do take care of sweet little pups in my home if that is better for you...check out my reviews. Why I love dog sitting I got my first dog when I was 6, Taffy, so much fun...Then there was Aussie, the smartest Australian Shepard ever. She went everywhere with me, the beach, park, even to work and would climb a ladder to go on the roof with me. Meet my pets an 80 year old tortise About my yard Large fenced in, with a large covered patio. Dog can roam, dig, or just enjoy the sunshine. They do have to share it with Fred, our 80 year old tortoise. My experience administering medication No problem.

Al was an incredible sitter for our pup! Lucky was really on a vacation while we were too! He took great care of him, has the perfect space for our furry family members, and we know Lucky was loved on so much. We had no worries while we traveled. Al was so accommodating and we are so grateful we found him!

Al was amazing! He was such an amazing help at the last minute. I felt very comfortable leaving him with Maple! Will definitely be using his help again in the future! Thank you Al!
