The mere existence of dogs is joy

Pet care experience

Hi there, my name to Dory/Doreen and go by she/her pronouns. In addition, my partner can help me get around and works with me. As such my partner is also my business partner so they might also ask you questions. Please treat us as an equal team. I have 7+ years of experience with sitting, walking, and caring for dogs & cats. I've spent time with many kinds of dogs & cats. I have an easy time relating to dogs, calming them and playing with them as well as cats. I have over 2 years of experience working at a boarding company in Manchester NH where I otook care of more than twenty dogs at a time. They were dogs of various sizes, breeds and age, etc. I also have a lot of experience walking dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds! You can look at my reviews to get a sense for how I'd treat your animals. My passion for dogs and able to relate to them well is something I excel at. Many of my friends and family have laughed knowingly at the "dog whisperer" label that others have given me at times. When I take care of your pet I can promise you lots of play time, walking time, and professional care for them. I give them lots of pets, snuggles and space if that's what they need. I'll also give them walks, their food as scheduled, and play with them of course!

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure to take as many precautions as I can including double clipping the leash and the harness (if available) while walking (if needed) your pet. I also try to be gone for no longer then (maximum!) 6 hours and only if need be.

Information Doreen F. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed or age preferences but knowing things about their friendliness towards me and other humans and dogs is very important. Any specific feeding times? If it's really early in the morning it may make it difficult for me (I'm a night owl) so keep that in mind. How much walking per day? I like to do 2-3 big walks at 15-20 minutes per day but let me know if it's more than that!

A typical day

I love playing with dogs, watching TV with them, sometimes I may even have full-on philosophical conversations with them, I'm fairly confident they can understand me!
