Your dogs and cats best friend

Pet care experience

I have grown up around dogs since childhood. I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of dogs, including neighbors' pets, friends' dogs, and family dogs. I've also walked and fed dogs for neighbors, friends, and family members.

Bjarne is great! Not only is he wonderful with pets but he is really easy to work with as a pet parent. He’s trustworthy, flexible, responsible and reliable. He was able to watch my cats on short notice over a holiday weekend. My notoriously shy cats took to him immediately and he was able to balance greeting my dog while making my cats still feel like they were the most important creatures in the room. He has also been able to walk and play with my dog from time to time. He is my go to person for pet care when I travel as I know my little ones are in excellent hands.

A typical day

As a dog lover and caregiver, I have a variety of fun activities planned for the dogs I watch. Here are some examples: Engaging Playtime: I'll provide plenty of playtime with toys, such as fetch, tug-of-war, and interactive puzzles, to keep the dogs mentally stimulated and physically active. Nature Walks: I love exploring the outdoors, and I know dogs do too! I'll take them on scenic walks in local parks, nature trails, and nearby green spaces. We can enjoy the fresh air, soak up nature's beauty, and let the dogs explore new sights and smells. Doggy Socialization: If your dog enjoys the company of other canines, I can arrange playdates with friendly and well-behaved dogs, either in dog parks or with the permission of other dog owners. This is a great way for them to interact, make new friends, and burn off some energy. Beach or Lake Trips: If there are dog-friendly beaches or lakes in the area, I'd love to take the dogs for a swim or a splash in the water. Water activities can be a refreshing and exciting experience for many dogs, and it's a great way for them to cool off during hot days. Hiking Adventures: If the dogs have a higher energy level and are up for a challenge, I can take them on hikes suitable for their fitness levels. Exploring new trails, enjoying scenic views, and engaging in more rigorous exercise can be a fantastic adventure for both the dogs and me.
