Mature and works from home

Pet care experience

I grew up with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 6 goldfish, and 2 parakeets. I have cared for multiple animals including cats, large dogs, young dogs, and older dogs. I realize all animals have their own personalities and need to be appreciated for their unique differences.

Dale is such a great find. We had him stay with our baby for close to 2 weeks. Our dog is a Covid puppy and is very fearful of people. Dale worked with him and by day 2, he was asking for belly rubs and attention. Dale sent us numerous texts with photos to ease our worries. By day 2, I knew we were all in good hands and we sat back and enjoyed our vacation.

Dale watched our Great Dane and Golden Retriever for a week in December when we were out of the country. He was great! Timely communication providing pictures and updates. Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I have kept dogs in my home for friends and family. Being in another person's home is a big responsibility. I strongly believe in respect for private property and treating another persons possessions better than I would my own. I'm offering to stay in homes of pet owners because I realize pets are calmer in their usual surroundings.

Information Dale W. would like to know about your pet

Does the dog have anxiety triggers? (One of my sister's dogs was deeply frightened by thunder.) Is the dog is restricted to feeding at certain times? Is the dog allowed to have treats? How does the dog behave around other animals?

A typical day

I enjoy walks, especially trail walks if there is time. I have an app called All Trails that my daughters and I use to find good walking places. Activities really depend on the dog's age and health. Older dogs may not have the energy or interest for longer walks. Puppies might get overstimulated in certain situations.

I currently work from home as a Senior Financial Analyst. My work schedule is flexible and is more focused on finishing projects than working certain hours. Dog walks and pet cuddles would definitely help break up the day.
