Highlights
Pet care experience
Seasoned Dog lover/care giver
LIfelong and proud dog owner. I had raised our family dogs (multiple breeds), was the primary caretaker of each, and friends, neighbors, and co-workers have relied on me to take care of their pets when away. I am currently a retiree (young) and have enough stamina and flexibility to play with your fur kids! I'm available primarily Monday through Friday, but will make time for Saturdays and Sundays. I always maintain fresh, plentiful water for my pets, take them for walks for at least half an hour, talk to them, maintain a clean, and hygienic environment, and most certainly are engaged with them and do not leave them alone very long. I'm currently a part-time caretaker for my elderly mother. My brother and I share the responsibilities, so I have plenty of flexibility to be with your pet(s). I cared for my Cocker Spaniel, Lady, until her passing in 2019 (19 years young!). Primarily in condominiums, so I currently do not have a pet. However, I would care for yours just like I did with her by taking good quality walks, and having quality play time in your yard, or nearby parks, or beaches.

A typical day
I try and engage your dogs mentally to get them to play, walk, and/or run. We'll play with their toys and provide plenty of time to check out new smells.

- I think it is important to know their names, any conditions they may have, any dietary regimens (or particular treats), and any special needs or behaviors.
