Pets are family too

Pet care experience

I am a former k9 unit member of the USAF, I have had dogs, cats, birds, skunks, ferrets, parrots, lizards, and even a fox as family pets. I currently have 2 giant breed dogs 1 male (intact) who is being trained by me as a PTSD service dog, 1 female (spayed) who is my daughters dog. We have one cat and an 8 yr old boy. I've been responsible for animals since I was a child and I love it and them. Animals are family to me. I'm currently available anytime or day. I am a freelance photographer that works from home. My schedule is flexible and can meet your needs. If you need a dog Walker, I'm available to walk them according to the routine you set for them. If you are going out of town, I can drop in 3 to 4 times a day, giving your fur baby playtime, potty time, and lots of attention. For those that need doggie daycare or boarding: I have a fenced in front and back yard. I live just outside of Flagstaff so I can take dogs on walks without the worry of heavy traffic. There is a park that we go to less than 1 mile from my house. My son and daughter live with me and both love animals and your pet will be showered with love. I am available most anytime as I work out of my home. I am very flexible in my schedule. The only consistant times I am out of the house are from 6:15am until 7 am and 3:20pm until 4:30 pm to take my daughter to and from her job. I offer training sessions for all dogs in my care, at no extra charge. The sessions are 15 minutes a day and will only be done with pet parents approval.

JD is a close family friend and she has been watching our dog and horses for years, when we go out of town. She doesn't just do the basics like feed, water, and walk, she spends a lot of time playing with and even training the animals. Our dog, olliebollie, loves when JD comes over. I would recommend her to anyone in need of pet services. Sincerely, James

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in front and back yard. The back yard has a 10ft wooden fence for those excitement filled pups that tend to spring over a fence. Both my dogs are crate trained, so I have 2 large crates that can be easily used as a safe space when your fur baby is scared or overwhelmed or you may bring your own. I have an 8 yr old that will love to giving your pup attention and love. The house is equipped with 2 living rooms and 2 bedrooms, giving the dogs plenty of room to play or even get away when it wants time alone. I also have 2 metal doorway gates in the event any of the furry visitors should require separation.

Information J.D. R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the breed, temperament, size, any special instructions, any anxiety, and does the dog get along with other animals.

A typical day

I love all dogs, the bigger the better. I'm a soft heart and your fur baby will get tons of love and affection. I offer training sessions while your dog is in my care. We will go for daily trips to the park for exercise and if your pet is on a raw diet, I have no issues handling raw foods. If they need to be given vitamins or medication, I have experience administering them. Your pet will be treated like family whether it's for 2 weeks or 30 minutes.
