Thank you, Randy, for being available to take care of Jenny on such short notice! She enjoyed meeting you. I felt at ease knowing that you would look after her. Until the next time! Juan.

Information Randy M. would like to know about your pet

Mostly I just want to know the personality of the dogs - are they outgoing or shy? Are the playful or reserved? Do they get along well with people or other dogs? It's important that a dog feels comfortable and I like to adapt to the lifestyle they are accustomed to.

A typical day

Generally long walks are my preferred activity with dogs. City or countryside is fine, however I prefer walks in woods and parks where dogs can take in all the smells of nature. Fetch and other games are also fun!
