Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced yard which the gates are always securely closed and a a large family room in the back of the house for lots of playtime. Water bowls are always full and 2 meals provided for our dog plus snacks when needed. We have a couple of dog beds in the back room plus lots of dog toys .

Information Maureen R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog needs extra time getting to know me . I will understand if she is a nervous pet and give her time . Also let me know if your do f needs any special “toppers” on her food to help her eat it and and if any supplements need to be added .

A typical day

The day would begin with letting your dog out to relive himself, then to have him eat and rest a bit . Afterwards when your pet is up for it we would either go for a nice walk or play a game of fetch in the yard . We can also throw the frisbe around . We would have water and chill breaks , maybe cuddle to a favorite show . Then later it would be meal time again and then time to either take a relief break or a nice walk .

Pet care experience

Ever since I was young I loved animals. I grew up always having dogs and cats in our home . Often as a teenager I would get asked by neighbors to either walk their dog or look in on their cat . So as an adult I have always had a dog and we consider our dog not just a pet but part of our family . So naturally I know how to feed , bathe , and administer meds to a dog when needed . I have just recently retired from the US Postal Service after 28 years . In my daily deliveries I had come in contact with many dogs and have learned how to deal with different temperaments. I also became friends with many dogs and even “watched “ a couple over the years . Since I am now retired my husband and I love bringing our dog Dave to the local dogbeach on the weekends and enjoy walks to the reflection pond nearby. Being retired means I can finally do something I am passionate about with no pressure “DOGS”!!! However I now have plenty of time to care for your fur babies as well ! I am so excited to start this chapter. I am into fitness and nutrition ( a former marathoner) so I am always up for walks and / or throwing the ball/ frisbee around .We have a nice fenced good sized yard for running around and also an enclosed huge room in the back of our house . Even if it’s just cuddles and chill time your pup wants I’m open for that as well . I truly love dogs and would treat your dog as I treat our dog which is like family .
