Information Richard H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or preferences or anything else lsie would like me to know. I do not any preferences for dog breeds age or size.

A typical day

My typical day starts around 6:30 in the morning when I wake up to make breakfast for myself and the dogs. I usually try to be out on a dog walk by 8:00 so we can beat the heat. I work from 9:30 until about 4:30 from my house, so I’m available to let the dogs outside and keep an eye on them. I usually fix dinner for the dogs around 6:00, then we go on another walk, usually as the sun’s going down. On the weekends, I’m usually around the house most of the day, occasionally leaving to play golf, and sometimes friends come over to watch sports.

Harris's Hound Hotel

Pet care experience

I provide a home where your pets will be happy, safe, and secure. My home is 2,700 sq ft with a large fenced yard that dogs will have access to throughout the day. I live in a nice neighborhood close to Lake Hefner, so I take dogs on daily walks in the neighborhood or around the lake. Dogs are always welcome on the furniture, but if they need a quiet space for themselves, I have a dedicated dog room where they can have some alone time or take a quiet nap. I have two of my own dogs: a 13-year-old, 15-pound mixed breed who looks like a little fox, and a 7-year-old Rottweiler. Both of my dogs are well-socialized and non-aggressive.

Once again, Richard is the best. Great communication with pictures/videos. My dog was over there for a full week and I’m not sure he was ready to leave when I came and got him!

Richard is always amazing with Heiress. She loves being there and he takes great care of her. He sends lots of photos and video so I can see her adventures and new friends she makes while staying in his home. He’s great. Thanks again Richard!
