Pet care experience

Excellent care/Lots a Fun & Love!

I've had dogs all my life and consider them one of life's greatest joys! They are truly selfless and provide unconditional love. I adopted my dog Bitzy from a rescue service twelve years ago - she's a Chihuahua and Rat Terrier mix....very friendly, quiet (for a Chi) and friendly toward other dogs. I'm retired and moved from Oregon to be near my two sons living here in St. Pete. I'm crazy about dogs and would provide excellent care should you choose to utilize my services. I'd treat them as my own and would honor the trust you'd place in me. Dog walks are fun for your dog and me. I've lived in this neighborhood a while and have gotten to know many dog owners and their dogs. Taking a stroll becomes a social outing as well as exercise. I have a large securely fenced in backyard and dog doors leading out to it and live a half block from Northwest Park. Your pet would be living in a secure, loving environment with the very best of care.

Dian watched our girl the week of Christmas. Very accommodating to our delayed flight. She is very kind and you can tell she loves dogs. We would definitely book with her again.

Schedule

Quite easily. I'm retired and.work in my yard a lot and would enjoy playing with your pet if they enjoy that. The dogs I've sat for have really enjoyed my backyard with all the critters and sumptuous smells they'll encounter.

Pets

A typical day

We'll go to Northwest Park - very close by. Perhaps play ball - maybe drive over to Walter Fuller Park and walk around the lake (on leash of course!)

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Dian can host up to 4 pets per night
Feeding schedule, typical activities - is it sociable?. Temperament and how it is around other dogs. Any medications it might be on; sleeping habits, etc. I'm comfortable with dogs who might have personality quirks and dogs in need of special care.
