Availability

I am a semi-retired ecologist and conservationist who manages a non-profit organization from home, so I am usually nearby and readily available. I was raised in a family that bred Labrador Retrievers and have always lived with dogs and cats (and lost of other critters). I currently have three corgis - two Pembroke Welsh and one American (Pembroke and Cardigan).

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and can care for gentle, corgi and child friendly pups. Most of my work is at client's homes. I'll make sure gates are closed and yards are safe and fresh water is available. I pay attention to weather conditions, accommodating for rain, hot, or cold weather. I pay attention to my surroundings on walks and in the yard to keep your pup safe.

Information Bill J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has favorite toys and activities, a schedule pattern (e.g., when they like to go out), and any special interests and needs.

A typical day

I can visit 2 or 3 times a day, let your dog out, throw a ball and play with them, give them fresh water and food, and keep them stimulated, cared for, and happy while you're away. I can do short walks as an alternative to a backyard run. I'll send you photos every visit. I can feed fish and other small pets and water houseplants too.

Pet care experience

I am an experienced, caring, mature dog walker who has been a life-long dog, animal, and nature lover. I am a professional ecologist and life coach who works mainly from home, allowing me to be available for dog walking. I have a lifetime of experience with dogs. As a child, my family used to breed labrador retrievers; now we have corgis. Love them! If you want someone dependable and smart who will love your dog while you're away or at work, I'm your person. My family has lived in the area for many years. I am available weekdays and most weekends as needed. Your dog will be in good hands. I'll feed your cats too. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! Thank you for your consideration.
