I Love Dogs, Cats Not So Much

I've had at least one Labrador Retriever as a family member for most of my life. When I'm walking in the neighborhood, I'll cross the street to say hello to any dog I see. I am retired, but I paint watercolor portraits of special animals by commission out of my home studio.

Dean was very welcoming of Squirt, making him comfortable throughout his stay, staying in touch with updates and photos! He made me feel very comfortable taking appropriate measures to maintain safety for Squirt, understanding his dog reactivity, walking him in his backyard space. Thank you for taking such excellent care of Squirt!!

I'm mostly retired now, and I no longer have a dog as a family member, so I'm avaiable most days for pet care when I am in town.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm mostly interested in dog walking and dog day care. I am not able to do drop-in or day care at night, and I cannot accommodate dogs a my home overnight.

A typical day

I enjoy walking and playing with dogs both indoors and outside, particularly fetch and tag. Looking for squirrels is also lots of fun where I live.
