Dog Lover with a Flexible Schedule

Pet care experience

Dogs and pets bring me joy and I love caring for them. Going on walks, playing fetch, and goofing around with dogs makes me happy :) I work from home and have plenty of time to give your pet the attention it deserves. I also have a fenced in yard so your dog can play and use the bathroom as often as it needs. Come by for a meet and greet in downtown wilmington whenever you are free. I do not have any pets however my neighbor shares my backyard and has a very laid back, friendly dog that keeps to himself. If that's an issues, I can easily close off my neighbors side of the yard. Looking forward to meeting you! Peace & love! Derek

Derek was great with our mini goldendoodle! We were vacationing in Wilmington and realized our dog wouldn't stop whining in the hotel. Derek was able to watch Knox last minute so we could have a date night. We were so thankful and Knox seemed to love him!
