Bark for a walk

Pet care experience

Caring for dogs/cats, and other animals started from a young age, since i was 6 years old, now about to be 30. I have about 4 years of cat experience in regards to feeding/watering, potty breaks, and socialization amongst both humans as well as other amimals. But the soft spot in my heart goes to the dogs. I'm punctual about potty breaks and meal times. I can give medications orally or crushed/dissolved in food. I personally enjoy giving dog bathes because its a good time to trust and bobs between the animal and owner.

Safety, trust & environment

Having 3 dogs of my own (Ruby our 8 year old pomeranian, Savannah our soon to be 6 month golden retriever, Kane our 7 year old border collie/ australian shepherd). Each of our animals has his or her own unique personality. Gary is our cool cat, he cruises all over and likes his independence. Ruby our little pomeranian likes to rest most of the time from joint and muscle spasms and advanced age, but she loves to give kisses and smiles. Kane likes his independence, not very playful with other animals or people he doesn't know well. But put him outside in spring or summer and he'll chase squirrels till the sun goes down. Lastly our Savannah is our little golden ray of sunshine. She loves kisses and tug-o-war, butloves digging holes in the back yard just as much. In regards to that, we've taken many precautions including completely fencing in the yard both in front and back within the last 10 months. Well lit with plenty of running space and toys. All dogs are up to date on shots and vaccinations. Theres a park with a 5 minute walking distance with plenty of play area, i take dogs on multiple daily walks between home playtimes, meals, and sleepy times. There are multiple quiet streets in cozy north east salem your pooches with enjoy exploring. WITH SNACKS provided by myself. If the dog treats are not up to your standards, i'd be happy to give your babies treats you provide from home.
