Runner w/ lg fenced yd & doggy door

Pet care experience

My family wants dogs of our own but will be heading out of the country soon for work, so... let me treat yours like my own (except I'll enforce all of your home rules ;) ) We have one dog-loving human daughter full time and 2 more half the time ... I love to run and play catch, fetch, frisbee, etc with dogs, and if yours enjoy it I'll take them socializing, etc as well... I already have a doggy door, dog beds, crates, toys, etc from my own dogs (lost them in the divorce... :P) and look forward to some company while I work from home most days. I'm also a combat lifesaver and have a sweet trauma first aid kit readily available if that is ever required...

Rob and his family took great care of my active energetic dog! I can tell she was treated like family and she came home exhausted. Rob kept me updated on her stay, sent photos and was responsive.

Rob has taken care of my cat many times, and I couldn’t recommend him more. He is attentive, takes his time and makes sure all the needs are met! My cat absolutely loves him, and gets excited when he knows that Rob is coming to take care of him.

Rob loves dogs but is pending a job relocation next year that would require long crated travel and quarantine time and he doesn't want to put an animal through all that. This allows him the opportunity to help others and get his dog walking fix.

Information Rob F. would like to know about your pet

Obviously, I want to know if he/she has a taste for leather couches or shoes, etc... otherwise I am pretty easy... grew up with sled dogs and have a husky part-time... so I have a roomba for the hair and furminator if he/she wants/needs it... I've also dog sat for a GSP a lot, and have a puggle and a pomshit/shit-eranian (shitzu-pomeranian) fur brother, lol... really just a dog lover and when a friend suggested I adopt a dog I filled this out instead... :P more flexible...

A typical day

I am pretty flexible on evenings and weekends I am available (availability depends on whether your dogs like children, as I will have my beautiful 7 and 5-year-old dog-loving girls half of each month)... if your dog wants to socialize I can take him or her out for walks/runs on more crowded sidewalks and trails... if he/she is a loner we can walk through the woods... if he/she is a couch potato, I'll speak dari/farsi to him as I study on the couch or cook... :)
