I work from home currently with my own attention seeking dog, he would love a friend and I may as well take care of more dogs since it's second nature to me.

Depends on what the client wants. I play chase, tug, fetch, "what's that" with my dog. If the weather is nice I will leave the back door open so he can come in and go out as he pleases. Water is always down, treats and food are given by me. I don't have a kennel but if you want your dog to have one I welcome them in my home.

Information Timothy L. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog resource guard? Are they fixed/are they a humper? What, if any, allergies or sensitivities do they have? I love to spoil with treats and special breakfasts, just want to make sure everything is safe.

A typical day

I have a fenced in yard that we go out and play in, toys ranging from frisbees to ropes to balls and anything else they may enjoy. Water toys for hot days, plenty of open space indoors for cooler days.

Pet care experience

I have had a 4 legged companion nearly my entire life. Dogs and I tend to have a mutual understanding and respect for each other. I have worked with teacup sized all the way to extra large dogs with complete comfort in my ability to communicate with and manage dogs. Most clients decide to keep coming back even if it's just to have a play date in the fenced in yard.

I'm so happy with the care TJ gave my old lady, Cali! She had fun in the sprinkler, lots of exercise and it felt like a friend of the family helping me out. Experienced in "dog talk" reading the signs and this will now be my dogs home away from home.

Tim took wonderful care of our dog, Honey, for 8 days with twice-daily visits, and truly went above and beyond. He spent extra time with her, treated her with so much kindness, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When it snowed, he even shoveled our walk! An incredibly thoughtful gesture that says everything about the kind of person he is. We are so grateful for Tim and would trust him again without hesitation
