Full time Dog enthusiast

Pet care experience

I have no preference as far as the size, or breed of the dog. I love the goofy ones that just like to flop over for the belly rubs. I've dealt with the escape artists as well. Having a great deal of patients is always beneficial and having compassion not only for the well being of the animal but for the owner I find is the best and most reassuring quality of a dog sitter. Having my own dog for the past 12 years (the dog in the picture) has taught me great responsibility and what it means to want to trust your fur baby with someone else and how important it is to feel comfortable. Why expect anything but the best for all around.

Alex was great. Meet and greet went very well. We knew from that, that we’d found a very calm, responsible dog walker. Everything went great and we felt fine leaving Hogan in her capable care.

Alex was great, she came by to meet Luna before the walk and then after she told us how everything went and took some pictures.

Safety, trust & environment

So every pet has different needs. I have a variety of clients I do watch for, but I think the biggest thing is communicating with the owners in how their fur babies are. And pictures if they prefer it. A lot of people just want to make sure that the medicine is given, that the dogs ate and that they were let outside.

Information Alex D. would like to know about your pet

I love knowing if the dog requires medication, if they have allergies to anything. How friendly they will be with me walking threw the door. If they are animal friendly (if we go on walks). If they have any ticks in general.

A typical day

So depending on the dogs needs is what I’ll do. I don’t have an issue with dogs that require more attention. However we do love walks, any place their comfortable at their own pace. Some dogs just love to cuddle.

I am currently working part time at my main job. However. I can not do any early mornings or night time walks. I still have time to do walks and drops in. I just currently require some flexibility. I know it’s a lot to ask for. However I am managing and still walking and doing drop ins for your loved ones
