Pet care experience

Growing up I always had dogs. I had huskies with a max of 4 of them at once. I loved to go for long walks through rock creek and great falls. When they started getting older their care changed to more of a “lazy” lifestyle and that included me having to medicate them. I don’t have any dogs now but I will get some in the future. Until I get to that point caring for your pets to the best of my ability will have to hold me over!

Ian is very patient in answering questions. Oreo is diabetic and can barely see, Ian took good care of him and Oreo looked happy when I picked him up.

Our dog Higgins came back happy and healthy. They have a nice big fenced in back yard for the dogs to play in so they can get plenty of run around time outside.

I really liked Ian from the first day we met! He connected so well with my vizsla doberman mix and was super affectionate with her. I'm looking forward to booking him as my primary walker until july.

I’ll start by a morning potty break and then breakfast, then a morning walk. Following is bathroom breaks and afternoon walks. Finally dinner and one last walk before bed.
