Pet care experience

Experienced Dog Dad for all sizes!

Hi! I'm a life long dog owner, have had and been around dogs and cats my entire life, I was a foster dog parent for several years and looking to help those in need of dog care. In the past, I've fostered puppies, dogs with anxiety and senior dogs and adopted them out to loving homes. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, shapes and woofers, any medical issues and am willing to work with any behavioral situations that other may not be willing to. I currently have 2 black labs at my home so full-time overnight house sitting is difficult but willing to work with anyone in need.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Over my life, I've had all sizes of dogs, garden-diggers, fence-jumpers, and all kinds of health issues to work with. Most any needs your pets have, I'm willing to work with you to support your pet/s. I'm comfortable with both large and small dogs and completely willing to work with you if your situation has anxiety or outward aggressive behavior. Personally, I'm a supporter of no-harm training, while some cases take longer, positive reinforcement in the long run benefits everyone.

I have known Walter for several years and everything that I see him, his two wonderful dogs are always happy, healthy and well behaved. He regularly walks them, there are toys always available for playing. He routinely keeps them on their toes with his trained commands such as heel, lie down, shake hands. They have free access to water and he has a mealtime schedule in place. He would make an excellent pet caregiver as he would treat the clients' pets as if they were his own in making sure their needs and happiness are met.

Schedule

I am available weekdays and weekends with notice and open to reoccurring visits. I have 2 labs at home, so full-time overnight visits are difficult. I'm very much willing to do pre-visits before your time away to "warm up" for both your pets and me

i'm open and willing to support any needs of your pets, i've worked with several foster pets in the past and if I haven't already done it, I'm open to giving your pet the support they need. It's stressful enough to leave a fur-baby with medical issues and I do my best to relieve that stress.
