“Misty came by for a third meet and greet with Mia and we went over feeding instructions and the walking route for her morning post breakfast walk. Mia recognized Misty and was wagging her tail. Misty was good with Mia and there were no problems walking, or coming in the house. Misty was on time, even for early morning visit which was appreciated. Thanks!”

About: My best friend is my dog. She is an American Pitbull-Terrior. I have been an animal owner for over 35 years. I have been an animal lover since I could walk. I'd love to give your best friend what they need when you cant. I work part time 4 days a week as a homeschool tutor and caregiver. I have plenty of time in my day to give your best friend the love it needs when you can’t. I won't be offering in home care at the moment. I have a dog who enjoys being the only dog. I can happily visit your home.

About: Myself and my wife have taken care of dogs ever since we were children we watch Neighbors dogs friends, dogs the kids dogs. We just love having dogs around. They get walked twice a day. We have a dog door that they can go in and out of our fenced yard whenever it suits them I am semi retired, so I have plenty of time to take care and look after your dogs. It gives me great pleasure watching them I have a dog door which enables the dogs to go in and out at their own pace. I generally can train them to use it within 10 minutes and then the yard is fully fenced in nice and big. We have water outside for them. Dogs tend to have a great time here
