Safety, trust & environment

My senior dog would go out for fresh air and a potty break minimum two times a day. I also fed him twice a day and made sure he had water in his bowl throughout the day. As for clients' dogs, I welcome all notes and will follow the instructions carefully to ensure they receive the care they need.

Information Melinda B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of, such as reactivity or pulling on the leash. I am very patient and have experience with a wide range of behaviors, but it's great to plan for in advance.

A typical day

Getting outside for walks and fresh air is important for dogs so I typically do this twice and sometimes three times a day if time allows. I also tailor the walks to their needs by giving them the space and time to get their sniffs in and do their business. Also, I make sure to spend some time playing with them inside and giving them plenty of attention and belly rubs.

Pet care experience

I have 30+ years of experience taking care of dogs from small to big and puppies to senior with our most recent family dog being a senior of about 17 years old. Also, I spent the last two years as a part time care taker for my dad, so I have experience following instructions and providing the proper care needed.
