Information Gwendolyn D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or if there’s anything to keep an eye on. I’m happy to give oral medication with instructions! I’m pretty flexible so don’t hesitate to reach out!

A typical day

In a typical day, I’d take my dogs on a long walk in the morning (maybe even a run when I’m feeling up to it). Then I’d feed my dogs and let them rest. Around lunchtime, I’d like to take my dogs to a park or fenced area to run and play while sneaking in some obedience training. In the afternoon maybe a quick walk and some inside (air conditioned!) tug of war or Kong play? After dinner a nice long walk once again before settling in to bed.

Dog-loving college student!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of many animals on my family’s small farm including three dogs, chickens, a pig, sheep, and bees! I’ve always loved dogs and got my first dog before I can remember. Two of our family dogs are hyper cattle dogs that have required lots of training, so I’m no stranger to the zoomies! One of our dogs is a rescue and arrived to us with anxiety and Lymes disease among other issues. I know how far a little extra love for our dogs can go!

Gwendolyn did regular drop-ins and was always reliable! She took good care of my pup and made sure she had lunch even when I forgot.
