Home full time - large fenced yard

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Gwen. I have been a dog owner, foster care provider, and animal lover my entire life. I have personally trained all of my dogs, and am often asked to train dogs for friends and family members. Recently retired from the Army, I am home every day and I keep a strict schedule. Your dog will be in good hands. I love and understand dogs and am willing to provide whatever they need, including training and exercise (I love to walk, run, and hike). I can host or do home visits. I have a large house with a big basement that is perfectly suited for pooches. I can even provide light grooming, like nail care and bathing. I'd love to meet and pamper your fur-baby!

Gwen, a life long animal lover, is hands down one of the most loving and protective people I know when it comes to pets. She treats our lovely k-9 friends as if they were apart of the family. I wouldnt want anyone else to care for my babies when im not around other than Gwen!

I've known Gwen for just over 2 years. She is very good with animals, and goes out of her way to give them the love and attention that they need. She understands the responsibility of caring for an animal and I am always confident that my babies will be kept safe and well cared for.

Information Gwen S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference, I love and accept any dog! For dogs staying in my home, I prefer fixed dogs, and dogs above the age of 1 year old. All dogs must have up to date shots. If your dog is dog aggressive, he or she will need to be crate trained and have a muzzle for any socialization. For dog sitting in your home, I can take care of any dog, I have no preferences. I have worked with rescues and dogs from bad situations before. I am great at making connections with animals and working with any kind of dog, no matter the size or breed.

A typical day

Your pooch will be pampered in my home. Does your dog like long walks or to go on runs? Great! Because I love those things too! Does your dog like to play? Excellent! I have plenty of toys and treats, and my dogs are very dog-friendly and playful. Does your dog need some time outside? No problem! I have a large fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run and play. I keep a strict schedule for my dogs. I have years of experience training, living, and interacting with dogs. I can even help get in some training for your pooch, to include leash training, socialization, and potty training.
