For most of my life I have owned a dog and for all of my life I have loved dogs! As I kid, I helped care for my family dog, Dexter, until he was 17 years old. Currently, my wife and I have a 28 lb. Beagle/Lab mix Riley. She's such a joy in our lives. I know how important your dog is to you, so I will care for yours like she/he is mine, with lots of love, playtime, walks and great care. Now that I’m a stay-at-home dad I have so much more time to spend with Riley and you’re dog, too! From young puppies to seniors, I have cared for a wide range of sizes, needs, and breeds. Each dog requires special care and I am here to provide just that. I am willing to make most requests and special accommodations. Ask and I will let you know if I can meet your needs. In addition to walking and visiting with your dog, communication and updates are important services that I provide. When I am away from my pet, I want to know she's okay and receiving the best care. I'll send as many or as little photos of your fur baby as you'd like, so you can confidently know that she/he is being take care of; the photos will also give you a little smile to get you through the day. We also have a 9 year old cat, Moby. He keeps to himself and his cat tree on most days, but we occasionally receive some lap visits from him.
