Pet care experience
The Dog Whisperer
Since I was 13 years old, I've had 7 dogs in my life: a Golden, a Border Collie, a Bernice Mountain Dog, two mutts, a King Charles Cavalier and a Cockapoo. Each of these dogs lived an average of 14 amazing puppy, mid-life and senior joyful years. I learned as a child and then as an adult, that dogs abound with joy when given a consistent, kind, safe and loving environment. I adore dogs and the energy they bring. They teach us how to live life to the fullest and maybe even teach us how to love. My friends know this about me. They're always asking me to take care of their dogs. They call me the dog whisperer. They trust me. Your dog will be at home in my care. A walk every 2-3 hours, some play, a snack (if allowed), a good snooze and we'll do it all over again.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Our dog came home safe and healthy, which is what matters most. While we’re still reflecting on the overall experience, we appreciate the care provided during his stay.
I have known Dan for over 8 years and Dan is a dog person! Dan has owned dogs most of his life. He took care of our golden retriever, Tulip, while we were at our son's wedding for almost a week. I never had a moment of hesitation during the time we were away. I knew Tulip was being cared for as if she were Dan's dog. He played with her, walked and fed her and allowed her to sleep in the room he was staying in. She was a happy pup! To this day, Tulip is so excited when Dan comes over - she wags her tail, runs circles around him and can't wait to play. If you want reliable, fabulous pet care - call Dan!

Schedule
As described below, your pet will be with me much of the day. I work from home on the computer and can take numerous breaks throughout the day to walk and play with your best friend. See below for our daily routine.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog and I will take a long walk the morning. If they're a ball chaser, there's a fenced in area at the local park where we'll spend some time running after balls. After the walk/run, we'll hang together as I work for a few hours on the computer. Mid-morning, we'll spend some time in my backyard on a leash making sure they get additional air and a pee. At noon, they'll get another walk around the block, have a mid-day snack (if allowed) and then while they nap, I'll work some more until quitting time when we'll go for another long walk or run. And of course what they care most about, breakfast, lunch or dinner will be served according to their routine. After the evening walk, we'll read or watch some TV while we relax on the couch. Bedtime is around 11 in which a quick backyard pee prior to bed. Depending on their preference, they can sleep on my bed or if they're crate trained and you or they would prefer that, they'll rest in the crate for the evening in my bedroom. And the next day, we'll do it all over again.

A typical day
When they're not napping, I'll play with your dog. Have chew toys that squeak along with a ball or two. They're be my side throughout the day. I have cozy beds and most always will have an eye kept on your dog.
