Thoughtful Caregiver
Pet care experience
Barbara is a dog owner (labrador retriever, labrador mix, Basset hound, chow mix, German shepherd, and French bulldog) and a cat owner. Barbara provides a half-hour or hour-long walks, playtime with toys at a local dog park, and house-sitting. She lives within a half-mile walk to the dog-friendly beach and downtown shops. She blends fun with socialization. She knows how to pill a dog, inject medication, perform CPR, and help your pet rest up from an injury. Barbara loves dogs! She loves cats! (She lived on a farm and used to care for chickens and pheasants.) "I'm sure to love your dog and cat as you do!" I am a stroke survivor and I've been one since July 2015. I am quite well physically except for speech difficulty. I will have no problem understanding you. Before I had my stroke, I was an English professor.
Reviews
We had never used Rover nor any sitter before for our two dogs. Barbara was extremely helpful as she guided us through the process, eased our anxieties, and took wonderful care of our boys. She was responsive to all our concerns and sent a ton of great pictures.
Barbara is a wonderful and caring pet sitter. My dog Kuma loves her. She takes care of my 5 cats and 2 dogs and does a great job. I know my pets are safe and well cared for. Thank you Barbara!
Barbara is always amazing! She's keeps up updated on our boys and takes great care of them!
Another great sit by Barbara. Boys were well taken care of!

I have a fenced yard, cats, and a pool. You provide your own crate and we will provide the love (and the treats)! We will not let you down!
Information Barbara H. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog have human aggression? Does your dog have pet aggression? Is your dog reactive or scared of humans or other dogs? I have no breed preferences. Pitbulls and chihuahuas . . . welcome! Barbara does NOT cross bridges to Martinez, Pleasant Hill, and Walnut Creek. In the past she did, but it was before the toll went to $7. She is serving Vallejo, Benicia, American Canyon, and Cordelia.
A typical day
Go on long walks at Benicia State Recreation Area, trudge up hills, and going to play at the beach! Go, with his parent's permission, to a dog park!
