Adventurous, beach-loving dog owner

Pet care experience

I grew up with a small Yorkshire Terrier, I know all about raising and training dogs from the puppy stage. I'm now an overly proud owner of a gentle giant, a 5 year old black lab. I have dog sat plenty of my friends dogs over the past 10 years, from big to small dogs. I LOVE animals and will shower your pup with love and affection! I'm also able to medicate dogs if needed.

Maghen is one of the biggest dog lovers out there! She has watched my pup, Fitz, a few times and treats him just like her own. She has a super adorable Lab named Chip and he gets along with every dog and every person. Maghen and Chip love to hang around the house, go to the dog park, or hang out at he dog beach. Wherever your pup wants to go, she will be happy to take them! I give Maghen and Chip an A+++++ and 5 stars!

I must admit Maghen has not always been a huge dog lover. Don't get me wrong, she loved them, but from afar. That all changed when she the The One, Chip. Chip has changed Maghen forever and she is a dog LOVER. She is so caring and loves dogs so much. Yes, she does love dogs more than most people. She is very fun and loves to go on walks with her dog. I would definitely trust her with my dog for the day or even for the weekend! If you are looking for a trustworthy, honest, caring, passionate dog walker then look no further!

Every dogs dream is to be dog sat by Maghen! My dog is so difficult but Maghen and her got along so well :) I would recommend all pups to have time with her! Sasha C

Information Maghen G. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference. I would like to know how much training the dog has had, what commands he/she responds to, feeding and walking schedule he/she is used to, activities he/she likes or doesn't like, and if it's a male dog - how he reacts around other large males. Chip loves all dogs, but other large male dogs who have not been neutered tend to be "alpha" and I wouldn't put my Chip in an uncomfortable situation. (He was neutered last year at the age of 4, so I know what it's like to have an alpha male dog!)

A typical day

I should start by saying that I am currently working from home, so your dog will have me close by at all times. And so long as he/she loves car rides (like my dog), they can ride with me when I run errands too! Pacific Beach is dog heaven! I live 2 blocks from Mission Bay and frequently walk my dog around the bay. There is also a leash-free, open (but fenced) field across the street that is perfect for dogs! I frequent Kate Sessions park too! Although I don't have a personal yard, my complex is dog friendly and has multiple areas for dogs to walk, sniff and play around in. My dog loves to play ball, and I love that playing ball wears him out. So I would definitely be able to play fetch with your dog. If you're dog is behaved enough (and you are comfortable with it), I usually bring Chip around to local restaurants and bars with outdoor seating and would love to bring your dog too! In addition, I'm up for playing with toys inside and cuddling on the couch too! My dog is at the perfect age where he can play around with other pups for hours and he can also sleep for hours, so no matter how young or old your dog is, Chip is the perfect companion!
