Acreage Home, Lotsa Lovin Provided

Pet care experience

Dogs are therapy to me. I LOVE them. I can't own one now because I occasionally take overseas work assignments and I plan to downsize to a condo in a few years. I do this more for your pet's companionship than the money. I volunteered with the German Shepherd Rescue of Orange County (CA) from 2015 - 2022. I have raised multiple large-breed dogs and a Shitzu. I am an Ex-Naval officer and recently retired (semi) from the U.S. Merchant Marine. I hold a secret clearance (which means an extensive background investigation was completed). Your doggie will have free run in my house (if well-behaved) and be will cared for. I work from home so other than short periods of no more than 3 hours I will be with them in my home. I will provide lotsa pics and video of your doggie. * 11 minutes to Silverwood 😀

Clifford was absolutely amazing with our two pups! He gave us a tour of his house and let the pups sleep on the bed which was great as they are use to that at home. He took care of them and loved them as if they were his own! He has a fenced in yard, perfect for the dogs to run around and do their business. We also received lots of pictures throughout the day! We will definitely have him watch our pups in the future! Highly recommend!

Assuming your doggie is potty trained and not a furniture chewer they will have free run in the majority of the house which has LVP flooring. I will send you pics and videos of your doggie every day. I have a fenced yard that my two German Shepherds used to play in (they have gone over the Rainbow Bridge). I will take them for leashed walks on my property and the surrounding forest. I use a very secure leash system and carry bear spray when walking dogs. So you're dogs will be safe while enjoying all the cool smells of the wild😉 If you're doggie is high energy or destructive I may need to crate them when I can't have eyes on them. If crated I will check on them as frequently as possible/needed.

Information Clifford M. would like to know about your pet

1. Are they fully Potty trained? If not, no problem as long as they are okay in a crate if I have to run errands. Or I could leave them in my secure, gated yard. I won't be gone long. 2. Any chance of my furniture or stuff gettin chewed on? If so, that's okay just let me know so I can manage that situation. 3. Any allergies or medical conditions I should know about? 4. Is your doggie crate trained?

A typical day

1. Lotsa petting and luvin. 2. Plenty of potty breaks off leash in my large fenced yard. 3. Walks in the forest behind my house. When I had my German Shephereds here they would get so happy and excited when they knew they were goin back there. Lotsa good smells I guess. 4. I'd be happy to do some training with them. 5. More treats and lovin.
