Experienced with Special Needs dogs

I am a mature woman with lots of hands on time with dogs. I worked for a few years at the Glendale Humane Society. My experience taught me genuine love with each animal coming from a different set of circumstances. I provide dog/dog walker, and I can come to your home or your dog can come to my place. I love dogs of all sizes. When I walk a dog I can see how happy it makes them feel to get exercise and sunshine. During the summer months or when its very warm, I will keep my air conditioning on to make pet comfortable if that is ok with you. I also have a nice fan. My main concern is that your pet is comfortable. I do not smoke. I live in a one story home with a fenced backyard in a safe neighborhood. I have lots of experience with senior dogs and special needs pets that need medications or shots. I have the patience, compassion and love for senion dogs. Whether your pet is young or older I will love on your pet. I especially like to get a pet out in the backyard if its not too hot, to feel the sunshine. I take 2 dogs as long as they are in the same family. I am fully vaccinated and have boosters. Reliable car and safe driver. I am an early riser. I am currently working part time with caregiving that is flexible. Also available on weekends and holidays. It brings me happiness to love on a pet. I take pride in caring for a pet exactly how the owner wants the care. If I am needed to buy something at the store for dog while owner is away, I am willing and happy to do this.

Laurie was wonderful as usual!! She was super flexible with our pickup time when our flight got delayed, and as always, Sandy enjoyed her time with her. We got lots of pictures and updates as well!

Safety, trust & environment

Keeping a safe environment is my goal. Inside I am careful to make sure small items are placed high to keep pet safe and making sure pet does not get into anything.

A typical day

I enjoy taking a good walk a dog a couple times a day or more if needed if the owner is good with that. In addition to walks for outdoor time get some Vitamin D! Stimulating a dog is important to me, and to give a dog good attention. This let's a pet know he or she is comforted while their owner is away. If you need me to house sit at your own home my rate includes a good morning walk and afternoon walk. If need be a walk in the evening too if that helps make your dog feel content. It's whatever you would like from me with walks and backyard time too.
