Retired, pet lover!
Pet care experience
I have had dogs and other animals since I was a child, and have been involved in animal rescue, fostering, rescue transport, animal advocacy and wildlife animal rescue rehabilitation. I will treat your beloved animal family as if it was my own. Whether your pet is an energetic breed that needs plenty of exercise, to the pet that might just need a little walk around the neighborhood for companionship and to do his business, my pet walking/sitting service will provide the necessary needs for your specific pet. Do you need someone to keep an eye on your pet while your away at work? Or perhaps you are going out of town on vacation and feel more comfortable with your pet at home, my service can provide all needs your pet will have while you are gone. I currently have two rescues of my own, a Golden Retriever named Seff and a mixed breed with DNA pointing to Shar Pei named Sophie. Inclement weather is of no concern to me, as I have the tools to walk my dogs in snow, ice, or rain without problem.

Safety, trust & environment
While visiting a pet that is home while their owner is away, I make sure to play with them with their toys and provide cuddles and petting to show them the love they usually get from their owners.
Information Barbara B. would like to know about your pet
Prior to walking your dog, I would like to know if the dog shows interest in other dogs or critters it sees, or vehicles on the road. It is good to know in advance if a dog will show aggression at other animals or trying to run after cars.
A typical day
Most pets love to be petted and cuddled. I also give belly rubs and what I call 'butt scritches' that dogs love. Playing fetch, tug of war with dogs and enticing cats to go after their toys is part of my visits.
Services
Barbara can watch in your home
Availability
After retiring I wanted to do something fun that would help others and keep me busy. Providing visits, walks and care for other animal lover's pets while they are at work or out of town is a perfect fit for me.
