Dog walkers in Lavon, TX
Hi! I can sit with your pet, walk them, bathe them, etc. No paid experience caring for pets yet, but I've had my own dogs, cats, small mammals, and birds over the years.
I've also fostered dogs through doodle dandy rescue. So I am background checked and cleared with them for foster.

I have a 5-year-old cat and I had a mini dachshund for 17 years with heart problems that required meds daily. So I am used to giving dogs medication if you need me to. Also had a rottweiler for 14 years with skin allergies. I will take them to the park or just for walks what ever you prefer to keep them active.
I've owned and cared for dogs all my life, and I currently have two little dogs, Bruce and Buffy. I feed them daily, walk them regularly, and bathe them monthly. I've pet sat for other people's pets 4 or 5 times and I'm happy to report that every time when well. I'm generally well-liked by all species.
