I have good rapport with dogs. I know the fundamentals of dog caring...and more! Am affectionate and playful but I realise the safety and security aspects fully. I had, as my friend, for nearly 15 years a big Labradoodle - he was virtually a Labrador. We had great times together. I learnt a lot about dog care during this time. I miss him a lot. I will consult with you on regime/schedule but standard day usually will be : • Get up and out first thing, greetings...breakfast, water, grooming. Head out between 07.30 to 09.00 to the park usually. Extended walkies, and lots of play, ball chase - if appropriate. We'll go to nearby Gladstone Park, Brondesbury Park, Paddington Recreation Ground or Hampstead Heath or to an enclosed little park in Marylebone. Back home, play indoors...then rest. Afternoon walkie sometime between 15.00 to 17.00 for 20-30 mins. Meal, if appropriate/necessary, snack at least. Play: tug/catch ball indoors. Evening walk sometime between 8pm to 10pm. 25-40mins. Back to home, wipe down and evening meal and bed down. Welcome to jump onto bed & sleep. Most dogs I've looked after, have done. Happy to take out doggy for a quick walk / pee in middle of night 3am/4am if instructed or required. Three of the above dog spaces are enclosed and safe however ofc I will be very careful with dogs off the lead, if your dog doesn't have good recall he or she will not be allowed off lead (or if instructed never to let off lead). I always, always clean doggies paws EVERY time we re-enter flat. So always a clean house! I do work all from home so will be with your dog 95% or more of the time, i.e not going to be left alone much, if at all. There's been a few dogs who I've boarded for a few days or more who have NEVER been left home alone.
