Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and a lower living space so my roommates don't have to be apart of the daily routine. I do not have a crate but can if needed

Information Gwyneth C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if the dog has any special needs or medications. If they have any appointments they may need to get to. And if able, it's always nice to get an overview of their day (walks, how many times they get taken out, feeding time)

A typical day

I love playing outside, classices like tug-a- war or fetch (if the dog does fetch). If not I've always found it fun just to roll or run around with them. It all depends on the personality of the dog and/or cat. I like to try to give dogs two walks a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon/evening. Around the neighborhood or a canal paths are my favorites too walk.

Can I pet your dog?

Pet care experience

I've been in the business for a long time. Started looking after kids after I took my first CPR class at 12 and started walking neighborhood dogs shortly after. At 17 (when I could drive) i was able to provide overnights and check-ins inbetween my classes. I've done weekly overnights for quite a few regulars and have taken some to scheduled (and unscheduled) visits to their vet and adore taking pics of your furry family members to send to you for whenever you want! I've had a dog for about 13 years and have loved every minute of it; baths, walks that turn into runs, play time, occasional medications and special needs for her anxiety. Pets are family and deserve to be treated as such.

Our dogs love Gwyn! She has dog/house watch for us many times and does an excellent job! Every time she stops over before she sits for us and the dogs get so excited to see her! When we return from our trips we come home to happy dogs and a clean house. Gwyn is always our first pick for our fur babies!

Our two fur babies love Gwyn! I can honestly say I have never felt more comfortable having anyone watch our pups as I do with Gwyn! Gwyn has house sit/dog watched for us numerous times and the dogs love her and are always happy to see her.

Our two pups absolutely love Gwyn! We come home to happy dogs and a house in great shape! We have used Gwyn a handful of times and I feel calm and relaxed when I am away with her taking care of our dogs! Thank you Gwyn!
