Pet Parent for 20 Years!
Pet care experience
Hi my name is Bonnie and I've been a pet parent for 20 years. I've walked my dogs every day with my first dog Jake and now with my second dog Frankie. My dogs and I have been on thousands of walks and adventures. Is your dog a "sniffer"? So is mine so I have the patience to accommodate that. Is your dog fast passed? I love to walk and can keep up. In 20 years I've seen it all. I love dogs. They love you no matter what and are great companions. I'm eager to start walking your dog today. I also can make trips to your home to feed and exercise them. I am a loving and caring person and will take care of your dog like my own. Happy trails! Dogs love routines. Every morning I wake up and get ready to take Frankie out for a walk. We walk around my apartment complex so he can sniff at everything. He's a Yorkshire Terrier and they love to sniff things. We then go out and walk in the neighborhood for some exercise. When we get back I feed him his breakfast and then he gets a few treats. He plays or naps during the day and if it's nice out he sits out on the balcony. We go for another walk later in the day and then he has dinner and a few more treats. I'm semi retired so I have plenty of time to spend with him and with your dog too! I love to care for and help train your puppy too. If I'm sitting for your pet, I will follow what their normal routine is, including walks, food, naps and treats. I will stay on your dog's schedule the entire time for minimal disruption.
Reviews
Bonnie was so amazing with our puppy Scotch! Fully trusting and followed instructions perfectly! Communication and follow up have been impressive and she is detail oriented which I appreciate. Highly recommend her for a sitter!
Bonnie is my neighbor and friend. She is out every morning walking her dog Frankie. Her dog is very friendly and well cared for. Recently I asked her to come over and watch my two dogs while I was away for several hours. She was happy to come by. When my regular sitter came over, the dogs were quiet and sleeping next to her. I would definitely use Bonnie again if needed as a back up to my regular sitter.
My sister Bonnie has had dogs for the past 19 years. She got her first dog, Jake in 2003 at four months old. Jake lived to be 16 because she took such good care of him. After Jake passed, she got Frankie in 2019 at seven months old. Bonnie loves her dogs and they are happy, healthy companions. Whenever we went on Vacation Bonnie would take care of our dog Pepito. I knew he would be in good hands. She took care of him and gave him medication when he had an allergic reaction one time. I know she'll be a great dog sitter and walker.

I get up every morning with my dog Frankie. We go for a long walk. When we get home I feed him breakfast and then he has a treat. He will play, nap and go out on the balcony if the weather is nice. We go for a late afternoon walk and then I feed him dinner. He has access to filtered water all day. He will usually sleep next to me at night.
Information Bonnie R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there are any special needs or behaviors I should look out for so that I can take care of your pet just like you would.
A typical day
I live in an apartment complex that has wonderful walking trails and tons of trees in a park like setting. It's located at the end of a dead end street so there is no heavy traffic. So I can walk your dogs without being on the street.
