Your house or mine? After having dogs most of my adult life, I am presently an "empty nester," in many ways: My children are grown and our dogs have gone on. I'm enjoying traveling and a new life in Bend, helping to keep my elderly parents independent in their home, but that doesn't take much effort. I'm currently renting near downtown, and look in on my parents daily, or just meet them for coffee, so I'd like something meaningful to do besides working out at the gym. I'd love a partner to go for walks with, and certainly don't mind making a few extra dollars. For the past 3+ years, my partner, Nigel Carter and I did Rover together in Walnut Creek, CA. where you can see references. I moved up to Bend in January and miss having our Rover visitors. I am a dog lover, and animal lover in general. I'd love to care for your pet(s) at your home or mine, and take them for walks, cuddle, and play. Note however, that I follow YOUR RULES regarding allowing them up on the furniture or beds. I am an exceptionally responsible caregiver, and can be very flexible. I am retired and have no regular commitments, other than volunteering 5 days per month at Mt. Bachelor Nov.-April. I am spontaneous, and can help you out in a pinch. I do require a meet and greet before booking the first time. Your dog will be well cared for and loved.
