Maxine's Loving Dog Care

Pet care experience

I would love to have the opportunity to love and care for your babies. I do not have pets of my own, but I have had dogs in the past. I have fond memories of them. I am caring and compassionate and love animals. I am trustworthy, reliable and fairly flexible. At the present time, my daughter is living with me and she has two dogs. One is small and the other medium size. I will accept one dog if your dog gets along with other dogs. My daughter's dogs get along well with others. Dogs would have full access to my patio area, but would have to be put on a leash to be taken for walks, etc. Inside, they would have free roam of the house and be allowed on furniture. I am a retired RN. I attend exercise classes three days a week, mentor at an Elementary school once a week and volunteer for several different organizations. Most of my activities or obligations are in the morning, leaving most afternoons, evenings and weekends free. Please be assured that I would have plenty of playtime with your dog and give them my undivided attention.

This was our first visit with Maxine and it was great! Will definitely continue to use her services. After meeting with her it’s clear she has a true love for dogs and enjoys it.

My dog needed extra care due to her cancer. Maxine was gracious to provide what we needed. I was able to go on my vacation knowing my dog is well taken care of. She’s a very sweet lady and I highly recommend her.

Maxine took great care of my dog Cleo. She send me pictures to update me how he was doing and was really kind and caring. Cleo enjoyed his stay.

Safety, trust & environment

I try to follow the dogs usual routine, so as to make them more comfortable. I have a fenced in patio so they can run free and put a lease on them for walks. Not knowing how they may react with other dogs, I turn around if I see another dog being walked, to prevent a possible altercation.

Information Maxine D. would like to know about your pet

I want to know how old they are and how much they weigh. I want to know if they are house broken and if they are good with children.

A typical day

I live near a creek with a nice path. The area has a lot of grass and trees and is away from traffic noise. There's plenty of space to sniff and explore.
