About Richard

I have no paid experience, but please continue reading. I have had dogs my entire life (walking/hiking partners), and have taken care of dogs/cats for friends and family for years. My last dog passed in 2019 at age 14, battling epilepsy for 12 of those years, so I very much understand unexpected challenges beyond just normal everyday life. Being recently retired (early) from a career in Medical Technology, my schedule is flexible. I am an inveterate walker/hiker, and also enjoy work/projects around the home. As I hope and trust you can discern from this bio, I can be of great assistance in your pet care needs, as well as additional odd jobs and errands that may be of benefit to you. I adopted another dog in 2022, a pup now nearly 2 years old, but still under 10 pounds and very friendly.
