Care for Your Four-Legged Friend
Pet care experience
I have had dogs for all of my life. Through the years I have had a Great Dane, a Doberman, and several mixed-breed dogs. I understand the unique needs of different breeds and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments.
Reviews
Richard has been renting from me for about six months and helping with the dogs I have here when I get busy. He has helped in the past when I have needed an extra helper with some of the dogs I have. He helps me to organize the feeding and sometimes brings them out for walks so we can get them out in a timely manner. He is a loving and responsible person who can be trusted with your dog as he has always had dogs in his life, getting his first dog (a Great Dane mix) when he was ten years old. He has cared for my dog Maebe numerous times and she loves him dearly.
About Richard & Hope R.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a somewhat secluded area, which makes it easy to take dogs outside for walks or playtime, either on-leash or off-leash, depending on their comfort level and training. My home has plenty of space for dogs to play indoors, so they can stay active and entertained no matter the weather. I prioritize a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets, both inside and outside.
Home
Information Richard & Hope R. would like to know about your pet
Before I care for your pet, it’s important to know their routine, any special dietary needs, and if they have any favorite toys or activities they enjoy. I also like to understand their temperament—whether they’re social or more independent—and if there are any behaviors I should be aware of, like leash pulling or separation anxiety. Additionally, it’s helpful to know if your pet is comfortable around other animals, new people, or children. Knowing if they’re good with kids or if they prefer to avoid them helps me create a comfortable environment for everyone!
A typical day
I love keeping pets active and entertained! With the dogs I care for, I'll enjoy playing inside with a variety of toys like tug ropes, fetch balls, and squeaky toys to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. I also make sure to go for regular walks to give them some fresh air and exercise.
