Pets need exercise and sunlight too

Pet care experience

I’ve been a long time lover of dogs, since the first day my dad brought home my first best friend a pure bred puppy boxer named Max. Now I enjoy the company of our big baby Jax. He has such a unique personality and an energy level that puts the energizer bunny to shame. I would be honored to help you watch after your best friend the way I look after my little boy. I provide many services and welcome all questions and families. I have experience with every family of dog from Chihuahuas to Maltese to K-9 German Shepherds.

Information Rick T. would like to know about your pet

Any specific dietary treats or needs would be greatly appreciated. Also any specific time for feedings will be honored and maintained. If you would rather not have your friend inside I can accommodate with another separate doggy bed outside.

A typical day

Typical day involves waking up and stretching and having a morning cup of coffee while I say good morning to my family. I take Jax outside for a morning potty break. Take the kids to school and come home to some eager pets. I make sure they have plenty of water and food. When it’s nice and warm outside we go for a nice walk approximately 30-60 minutes and come back and rehydrate. From then on it’s all playtime outside.
