Happy to hike and play with pooch
Pet care experience
I love dogs,especially the playful-wiggly-smiling-energetic kind. A friend told me about this and I thought it was a good fit with me being a massage therapist and having free time during the mornings and evenings. My family had dogs when I was younger and I've always wanted one myself but working so far from home it seems wrong to have one when i'm gone all day. This should help me get my doggy fix and earn a little cash on the side. I can work mornings and evenings after about 6pm and weekends for the most part, and I don't mind staying overnight with dogs. My work is mostly during the middle of the day so that should work out well with most dogs needing morning and evening walks.
Reviews
Timothy "Shawn" is the most wonderful pet sitter!! My dog is always happy to see him because he spends time playing with him, not just feeding him. The bowls are always clean and full. Once, Shawn found flying bugs near the cat food and got sticky tapes to catch them. They worked! I trust him with my house as he always leaves everything clean and neat. He always sends me a text when he visits so I know everything is OK. I have known Shawn for several years and have always been pleased with his work. I can highly recommend him in whatever he chooses to do.
I was very happy to find Shawn, he is a true dog lover and takes amazing care of my friends' dogs. We share the duties of caring for them, 3 in all. Each one of them loves him, they'll come up to him with their tails wagging hard. One of the dogs is slightly difficult to handle but Shawn has no problem with him. Do not hesitate to have Shawn take care of your dog, he's the best!
I have known Shawn as a friend for almost twenty years. Shawn is compassionate and trustworthy. He and I have walked my dogs (two greyhounds and two mix breads) numerous times on hiking trails in the Upstate. The dogs are always excited and happy to see Shawn. I will gladly turn to him to look after my dogs if I ever need a sitter.
About Timothy S.
Skills
Information Timothy S. would like to know about your pet
I would need to know if they are friendly towards other dogs or do I need to keep them on a short leash during interactions obviously, same with humans or children. Any special needs or things that upset them would probably be a good idea too.
A typical day
I will totally play catch or go hiking with your dogs, I have found hiking in particular is good exercise and it seems to help the very frisky doggies calm down a bit. I'm sure being out in nature is also a boost in that regard. If you have a preference on where I take the dog to walk I'm ok with that too.
