Active, Loving, & Patient Pup Pro
Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Gwen, a 25 year old UNCC alumni and Realtor/Broker who happens to not only have a passion for homes but also the fur babies within them! I have had immense experience caring for, owning, raising, training and even breeding all types of pets including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, fish, and other little critters! I’m very comfortable with pups of all sizes. I lead an active and healthy lifestyle, love being on my feet walking and running! I have lived in the area for 7 years so I know the best and safest routes to walk your fur baby. I’m comfortable with the youngest of puppies as I have raised 6 yorkies from birth, 2 German shepherd puppies, one chihuahua from 4 weeks old, and a new born kitten whom of all are very happy and healthy! I grew up in Waxhaw in a very rural area, spent most of my time at Carolina Country Acres with my horses or on our property caring for our pups and chickens. I’m extremely familiar with the importance of how each breed has their specific needs, energy levels, and temperaments, so I’m always prepared for anything, and always remain patient and loving. I pride myself in socializing all my animals and teaching dogs that humans are here to simply love, support, and guide them through a healthy and happy life! Look forward to meeting you and your special little ones!

Reviews
Gwen did a perfect job watching our pups! She stayed in our home for a week while we were away and left our place perfect and our pups happy! Highly recommend Gwen!
Once again Gwen was awesome! She was there for her visit early and took lots of pictures. It made us feel better knowing our cats had someone checking in on them while we were gone. Gwen is the best!
I am so grateful I found Gwen! It’s my first time living in an area where I don’t know anybody so when it came time to finding help with my 12 year old pup I was very nervous and I did not want to put her in a kennel. I went away for a long weekend and she updated me through out my trip, great communication, and sent me lots of pictures! I was truly able to relax when I was away. High recommend!!
Gwen was fantastic! She came by for a meet and greet a couple weeks before the scheduled visits, met our two cats, went through their feeding and maintenance routines with us and asked questions. During her visits she sent us regular updates and tons of photos. I would definitely recommend Gwen, and plan on scheduling her again when we go out of town.

I do not currently board pets in my home at this time, however when at a clients’ home, I treat their pets as if they were my own, and the home, as if it were my own, the same I would in representing any client professionally.

A typical day
I’m huge on making sure pets stay stimulated. I know that when your pet is away from you, it can cause stress, and anxiety for the pet. My main goal is to minimize those negative emotions by replacing them with good and healthy distractions that promote positive emotions like walking, training, playing, parks, etc.
