Pet care experience
I am very likable with dogs! I've taken care of pet dogs since I was 10, many of which were my own. I've been relied on by friends and family all the time. Any kind of weather! I’m retired from the military and government civil service and currently home most of the day. I’ve grown up with them my whole life and have 40+ years' experience living and playing with them. I love to spend time with them, playing with them, and taking them for walks. I’m able to walk any size dog regardless of their energy needs. I will also conduct drop-in visits to ensure that our pet is not too lonely while you are away. Also, if some play time is wanted, just let me know! I don't own any dogs because my wife is allergic to them. I didn't have much opportunity to own one while I was serving in the military due to the nature of my work. When I did own a few, they had a very loving and trusting home. I would definitely come to your place to visit with your dog prior to any arrangement. As I'm retired, I'm able to work in dog walking/drop-ins on almost anyone's schedule. I do have personal commitments, and I let owners know far in advance of my availability. I don't provide for care in my home as, at this time, I'm only providing dog walking/drop-in service. The care that I do provide during walking/drop-in other than feeding and watering would be playing with them and providing much wanted petting and kind words. I'm available most any time (I would let you know of any personal time off). I would do my very best to fit you in. I'm very patient with dogs! I provide exceptional service while walking, ensuring that they stay safe while on the neighborhood sidewalks. The respect of owner's homes is utmost when I'm inside either retrieving their dog, returning their dog and providing food and water.

Safety, trust & environment
I don't provide care in my home, as I've stated above, so I only provide dog walks and drop-ins. I am open to provide dog sitting in the owner's home.
Information Duwayne A. would like to know about your pet
Do I need to provide any special care, etc., while walking? This would ensure that I'm well prepared before the walk or slow run and make it a great time for both of us.
A typical day
I love to walk around parks and neighborhoods. I enjoy being out in nature and having a dog to walk with and talk with while walking will only enhance the "nature" walk. Also, for anyone living in Craig Ranch, I live directly across the street from the old "Craig Ranch Fitness Center," I'm only about two blocks from the dog park in this area. During drop-in visits, I will provide them play time.

Availability
As I stated above, I'm retired; therefore, I have much time which I can devote to provide services to pet owners. I'm available most anytime during the week.
