Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to watch dogs in their own home. I find it's easier for their comfort and well being. I follow all guidelines set for the pet by the owner and love spending time bonding with their dogs. We go for walks, play, or just spend time keeping each other company. I believe it's important to leave a home better than when I arrive by promptly cleaning any messes and keeping things tidy during my time there.

Information Duncan M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know and provide and special needs and behaviors your dog has so I can make sure I am giving them and you the best service I can provide

A typical day

I love stimulating dogs mentally and physically. I like to do so by playing games, smelling new smells, going on adventures, and activities to enrich them to satisfaction.

Duncan was a great fit to watch our dog, Bear. He was really thoughtful in his care of Bear and was knowledgeable about breeds of his size (he's a Newfoundland). He kept us informed of how he was doing the whole time we were away. Bear seemed very at ease with him. We will definitely book with Duncan again!
