About: I'm a nurse, so, I typically work 3 days a week and have the other 4 off which makes for a lot of availability and flexibility to help walk or watch your fur baby! I have a dog named Butch, he was a stray from Puerto Rico that was basically feral when I got him. I successfully domesticated and trained him and he's turned into the sweetest, chill dog ever! Butch has skin issues and separation anxiety, so, I also have experience in administering oral and injectable medications. I'd be happy to use whatever commands and training techniques you use with your pet as well. I typically work three 12hr shifts a week and they are usually week days so I am frequently available Thursday-Sunday for long weekends to watch or walk your dog and some weeks I'm available a day or two earlier in the week. I have a lot of flexibility and availability for the weekends and toward the end of the week though! I have a 6ft privacy fence in the backyard, my neighborhood is very walkable with sidewalks, and a sweet dog named Butch who is about 6 who will easily and quickly become friends with your fur baby. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds in my home but I am willing to crate yours if that is what you prefer!
“Wesley was fantastic with our pups! Working 12hr shifts it can be challenging to find someone to check on and walk my two mini poodles, so I am very thankful Wesley was able to make time for them! Wesley also took the time amidst a busy schedule to meet the fur family which really helped😊🫶🙌”
