Wait, you have a dog too?!?!

Pet care experience

I've had 5 dogs over the past 15 years and I love every minute of it! I've been asked many times to watch other family/friend's dogs and have taken special care each time that I do. I currently have my 7 year old Bernese Mountain Dog, DiNozzo. He needs special attention with his bad knee, so going up and down stairs can be a challenge for him. I know some dogs need special care ranging from putting a coat on them because it's too cold to or helping give medications. I'm very open to any and all requests to make sure your dog feels comfortable and to give you peace of mind! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Spenser is a dog lover for sure! He has watched my dog and also my parents. He is reliable and enjoys spending time with dogs and giving them attention. He will make sure that dogs are given attention and are a priority.

Safety, trust & environment

I have an open yard without a fence. I do have an electric fence for my dogs who are friendly to other dogs. However, your pet wouldn't be let outside without me. I do have family members who would be around to play with your pet if you'd like. Otherwise, I enough space to keep my pets and your pet separated. My dog is a 7 year old Bernese Mountain who loves to sleep outside and lay around for most of the day. He isn't too active anymore being a bit older, so he wouldn't be a bother to your pet. I also have a 5 year old hound mix, Allie, who loves to run in the yard and be outside playing. Allie likes playing with other dogs! I have an empty lot behind my house with plenty of space to play if your dog is active and likes to be outside! I live on a quiet street where going for a walk wouldn't be a problem either.

Information Spenser S. would like to know about your pet

Any information that you think would be helpful is welcome. Mainly I want your pet to be comfortable with me and potentially my pets. That being said, I would like to know about feeding times, behavior with other animals, any allergies/medications, are they playful, and last but not least, are they house broken.

A typical day

I have a bunch of toys that my dogs are happy share! I have a huge empty lot behind my house we can use to run around and burn off some energy, or we can take a relaxing walk to a near by park about 3 blocks from my house!
