Large fenced yard live near park

Pet care experience

I rescued a 4-5 year old blue heeler last year named Banjo. He is a super sweet boy and loves playing with other dogs. We are a fairly active household. I try to get out on hikes, snowboarding, swimming, etc. as often as possible. Due to the fact I now have a dog of my own, I am limited to staying at other people's homes with their pets and am only able to have 1 other dog here at a time. With that being said, I love to have friends for Banjo so h can romp and play in the yard and at the park with them. I practice positive reinforcement with all pets I watch and am very eager to do whatever it is you need to ensure the safety, security and happiness of your pet. My home is perfect for furry friends. With a fully fenced front and back yard, minutes from Glenwood Park and 2 people who love dogs, your pet will get all the attention they can handle. I am a very active person and love exploring this beautiful place I call home. I would love to take your dog on a hike or a swim if that is something you and your pet would enjoy. I also love walks around the neighborhood, hanging in the backyard or being a couch potato. I am open to it all.

Melanie took good care of and made accommodations for my old man Marty, and we will book her again in the future.

Wonderful! We arrived home to happy animals and a tidy house. Esme clearly enjoyed spending time with Melanie and Robert and I hope we can arrange for more.

Our dog, Yoddha, came home super tired from all the play!

A typical day

I live in the Lents neighborhood. It’s such a great area. Not only is Glenwood Park just minutes from my house, so is Johnson Creek Trail, which has lots of nature trails to explore. My yard is fully fenced and is a great place for your pup to get some sun or take a long nap. I love playing with dogs and keeping them stimulated. Fetch, frisbee, soccer...you name it, I’ll play it. If your dog doesn’t like to play but is more of a walker, I love that too! I live in a very residential area so there’s no shortage of streets. I love the outdoors. Any chance I get, you can find me hiking a new (to me) trail. I also love to bike and live near an awesome bike trail so I explore that a lot. I just bought my house so I am a bit of a homebody these days, but it’s always about a good balance.
