I've had a dog since I was 5, my boyfriend has had a dog since he was 7. We've owned various breeds (Mutt, Collie, Pitull, German Shepard), we have also been pet sitting and dog walking for 4 years now on our own for friends and family, which include puppies and older dogs. Greyhound, Boston Terriers, Malinois, German Shepards, Shiba Inu, Labrador. Pets are a pet of our family when they are with us. We get up and do morning walk and feed. Tim works from home and is home all day, I work from 9-2pm and then we do afternoon exercise in fenced in dog run, fetch or chase. We do walks, and do hikes with your dog weather permitting. We live by Quail Lake and will walk around the lake with dogs. We also have a potty mat on our patio for late night potty breaks since we don't have a yard. We pet sit mainly in our home, but have gone to other homes. Dogs come first when pet sitting. Their schedule with you is their schedule with us. We never take them off leash unless we're in a fenced in dog run or dog park, and will not socialize them unless we are told they can play with other dogs. We follow all dietary requirements for each pup, and make sure they feel loved, as well as get as much play time as possible!
