Retired dog lover for hire

Pet care experience

I've taken care of many dogs since I was a kid. Since my schedule has become more flexible, family and friends now call on me to look after their pets.

If you're looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and patient to take care of your pet - Doug is your guy! He watches my Marley several times a month and she is always very excited to see him. Being active is a regular routine for Doug as he enjoys multiple walks a day. Your dog will get the exercise they need walking with someone who won't see it as a job, but as part of their lifestyle!

Doug is fantastic! He has been our regular dog sitter for the past year and always does a great job caring for our dog Charlie. It's easy to tell Charlie loves Doug and considers him part of his "pack". When they are together, Doug goes out of his way to give Charlie extra attention, walks and play time. It's comforting to leave our dog with somebody who is both reliable and trustworthy. I highly recommend Doug to anyone looking for a pet sitter/walker.
