Mountain Dog Intense Hiking Experie

Pet care experience

I am an avid hiker/ skier / kayaker / mtb / fitness enthusiast and a licensed real estate agent. While others offer a leasurely stroll around your block, I can offer a more vigorous hike in the woods, or a leisurely stroll depending on what your dog prefers. I have been caring for my family's bichon poodle, also an avid hiker, for the past 12 years, and regularly watch my friends' pets when they are away. I also have experience with cats, having lived with up to four of them at one time. I work from home, have a flexible schedule and would love to watch hang out with your pet while you are on holiday. I can provide lots of attention and exercise and love.

I am a good friend of Matt's. He is just so great with his dog Sonny, taking him on long hikes whenever he asks and he even makes his own food from scratch for Sonny, because all of the food on the market makes his skin itch! I would trust my kids with Matt, let alone my dogs. He is always hiking and will definitely leave you with a happy tuckered pup!
