Information Barbara L. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know your pups schedule and any personality traits, any likes and dislikes your pup may have. Also, their energy levels - if they like long walks, short walks, etc.

A typical day

I will make sure to go on walks, there is a great path right by my house. We will of course have playtime too! I am a very loveable person so they will always get a ton of attention.

Welcome my fur friends!

Pet care experience

We had a family dog 11 years that we loved and cared for until he passed. We did everything together. He was our best friend. My work schedule is flexible and I am typically working from home. There should be no problems with scheduling your dog to stay at my home. We have a yard that is fenced in, so I can let the pups out but I would take them on walks - as I enjoy walking myself! I would play with them, make sure they are getting lots of attention (if wanted!) and would care for them as if they were my own.

Barbara was absolutely wonderful! She updated me and took pictures of my dog while I was gone. She took my dog for walks and gave treats! My dog seemed very happy with her. I Highly recommend Barbara as a dog sitter and will definitely use her again! Thank you so much Barbara for taking such good care of my girl!!!!
