Safety, trust & environment

I have a dog of my own to keep your pet company on walks but I also offer solo walks if needed. Pets in my care are treated like they are my own with lots of love, attention and respect.

Information Blane H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any allergies or quirks I should be aware of. If you are booking me for your dog, please let me know if they are good with other dogs. Thank you!

A typical day

Enrichment is both mental and physical! I love taking dogs on fun adventures around their neighborhoods, local parks or exploring somewhere new if that is more their speed. Engaging cats with play and affection is equally important. I am always happy to offer some quality cuddles.

Blane was great with our cat and our apartment, everything was done to our cat’s liking, and he was happy and well-fed when we returned! Blane was very easy to work with, responsible, and in the future I hope he’s avalible to stop in for Salem again!

Blane was a wonderful cat sitter! He dropped in everyday and made sure my cat was loved while I was out of town. He sent lots of pictures and a paragraph describing the visit. Thank you Blane!

Blane was a pleasure to work with! He was able to accommodate my schedule on short notice, and was well liked by my pups. He kept in contact, and went the extra mile to make sure my Newfies got enough exercise while I was at work. I highly recommend him for any pet sitting services.
