Pet care experience

I always have had pets . I had cats and dogs. I enjoy having dogs. I have milo he is a rescue . His breed is poodle/ terrier . Have new edition to our fambily his name is max a chihuahua / Jack Russell . He is 2 years old now. Ever. Since. I remember love pets as a child. Anywhere I go pets attach to me real quickly. I be a good dog walker and sitter to any client. I have dog park near my home also always take my dogs for walks every chance I can. I will take your pet for walks to.Your pets will be taken care of very well. Also have fenced in back yard and dog pen to. I will take. Dogs for walks.World’s Biggest Dog Lover - Belly Rubs Included! From the time I can remember, I have always had pets. Thanks to my parents, my dog loving personality was instilled in me at a very early age. And did I mention, dogs love me too? I currently have 2 dogs of my own, Milo and Max. Max is my 2 year old Chihuahua/Jack Russell mix and is very spunky! Milo is a rescue poodle/terrier and loves to play fetch outside. Your dog(s) will be welcomed into our home and have regular walks and playtime in my fenced-in backyard. I also live near a local dog park, so we often find ourselves burning energy there if it’s not too cold or wet outside! When your dog stays with me you can rest assured they are safe, exercising regularly, and getting lots of belly rubs! What Barbara would like to know about your dog If your dog is friendly and gets along with other medium-sized dogs If your dog has been aggressive in the past or has any behavioral issues If your dog needs to follow a firm schedule (feeding, walks, playtime, etc.) If your dog takes any medications Important facts that I feel are necessary include: What is his/her quirks are and the kind of "naughty" behavior to look for while in my care and any other information you feel I must know about. None of this will make or break a decision to book a stay. I simply use this information so I can determine how much supervision

Barbara B. was a good choice to temporarily house our Buckie. She provided daily pictures and updates. Very responsive also. Buckie said she had a blast with Max and the rest of the family. I would recommend Barbara.

Barbara does a great job and always sends me photos of tank. She was flexible with me when I needed to board him an extra day. I love that she has a yard, too, so my dog can run around lots. Will use again! :)

Barbara was so nice, and my senior pups got along great with her two dogs. She also has a beautiful backyard that both of my dogs enjoyed very much.
