Active, young dog lover

Pet care experience

I am an active 23 year old looking to save some extra money for a dog sheltering business of hybrid dogs in Colorado. I live here in Peoria currently but am willing to travel up to 30 miles with proper compensation. My availability will be daily from 7 or 8 am until 4 pm. I run and hike outside often so I would prefer to do at least hour long visits to ensure your pet and I get the exercise we need! I also do prefer to come to your house to pet sit due to my lack of a back yard. Smaller dogs wouldn't be a problem pet sitting in my home, but larger dogs could very much get restless without a yard to play in!

Melissa watched our baby EllieMae last fall (sorry for the very delayed review). Melissa and her roommate were sooo kind and excited to watch our girl! They babied her and brought her to a dog park, and gave her so much attention being that Ellie was the only pup they watched that night. Ellie was a happy, tired girl when we picked her up the next morning. Thank you for taking good care of Ellie!!

Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know their specific needs and their aggression level. Also how they interact with new humans.

A typical day

Bradley Park and Detweiller Park are both great walking locations as well as the riverfront. We will enjoy catch with a ball or frisbee and also do sprints to exert much of that bottled up energy!
