It is about the walk and the visit

Pet care experience

In my 67 years, I was only about 20 years without a cat and/or a dog. They are a continuation of the family, enriching our lives.

Great care and patience. Thankful that our dog was in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

A cat or dog is like family and in particular grandchildren ( of which I have 4); experience has taught me that the most rewarding time with them is the time spend one-on-one.

Information Marinus S. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if the dog is friendly and sociable towards other dogs. Children often want to pet dogs, especially if they are cute so I need to know if the dog is child-friendly and/or easily spooked.

A typical day

I like to keep to well-kept paths as we do not want to encounter animals/critters that may harm the dog in my care. I will consider off-leash walks in designated areas once we have bonded and I am sure the dog responds to my voice commands. On regular walks, I'll allow the dog to sniff and discover at his/her own pace, unless I am requested to burn energy.
