Dog Lover and Best Friend...

Pet care experience

I have been a dog sitter for the past five years but I have operated mostly by word of mouth. I have sat dogs in my own home, as well as, in the client's home. I also have experience with long-term sitting (2 weeks+). The typical routine at my house: I'm up with the dogs every morning at 6am. This usually means a quick potty break first thing followed by a long walk, depending on the dogs stamina. After the walk, there's breakfast and some outdoor time. Around 10am, the dogs come in for some quiet time before exercising at lunch. Exercising usually consists of some structured play (fetch, etc.), as well as, individual play with kongs and treats. All of this is followed by some more quiet time/nap time. If your dog enjoys the outdoors, then this can be an outdoor activity, depending on the weather. Around mid-afternoon, we go for another long walk, dependent upon the dogs stamina. Followed by dinner and a little more structured play. The rest of the night, the dogs spend relaxing with the family prior to bedtime. Communication style: I am available all day. I can provide pictures of your dog, if that is something you are interested in.

Information Erin D. would like to know about your pet

All I am interested in prior to sitting for a dog is making sure that the dog is up to date on shots and flea/tick free. If the dog has any quirks or medical issues I should be aware of and where his/her favorite spot is to be pet. Everything else I pretty much figure out on my own while we get to know each other.

A typical day

Walks are usually just in the neighborhood or at a few local parks. There is also a dog park a few miles away that I like to frequent when I have a full house.
