Your pet and I will be best friends
Pet care experience
I have 19 years of experience with multiple dogs, and have been pet sitting for 12 years. My home was used as a foster location for small dogs that needed socialization, so I am experienced with semi-aggressive dogs. I currently have a senior dog (special needs) and a blind dog and have experience with cat sitting and small animal care as well. My apartment is hard floors throughout with a fenced in back yard. Piddle pad trained dogs are more than welcome, crate or play pen trained is awesome, but not a requirement. I treat every pet as my new best friend! I love to take pictures of the pets I care for. I am willing to drive dogs to parks or their favorite walking areas. ------- Please give me at least 24 hours notice for an overnight request! I like to make sure my house is clean and my schedule clear. More time is preferred so that we can schedule a meet and greet to allow your dog to explore my place and meet my dogs before their stay.
Reviews
Calvert did a great job with our beagle mix. We’d definitely use her again!
So glad I found Calvert to leave my 13 year old dog with! She sent photos of some of the highlights of his stay that put my mind at ease and kept in close contact. Will definitely be using her again!
Calvert was great with Draco and was super accommodating when my flight got delayed so much that I had to pick him up the next day. Definitely a recommend!
Charlie had a great time with Calvert and we are already booking his next stay! Calvert provides a safe, loving home that ensures that our dog was happy and healthy. She sent lots of photos so that we didn't worry.

Information Calvert G. would like to know about your pet
How leash trained are the dogs? If you have multiple, do they get walked separately or together? Do they like dog parks, if yes how are they in cars? Preference for smaller breeds but love them all.
A typical day
I take dogs on regular walks around the neighborhood. Sometimes on weekends I like to take the dogs on special walks/hikes (like seeing the Bluebells at Great Falls)! I recently adopted my blind boy Wally. He's special needs but doesn't know it! He loves playing with other dogs, but if your family member would prefer a more relaxing experience, I am able to divide my apartment to keep them separate!
