Pet care experience

Pet Loving Social Worker

I live on a quiet street in a 3 bedroom home with a finished basement and 6 foot fully fenced in yard. I have plenty of room for your fur baby to play. I provide most of the care to our furry guest and my family assists me. You can rest assured that your dog will be in a safe, clean environment and will be treated like family.

She was great in keeping me updated on my dog during her stay there. She was also very responsive to messages and flexible with when we dropped and picked her up. I had a very good experience!

Safety, trust & environment

🌟Although I do not use crates, dogs who have separation anxiety might not be a good fit as dogs are free to roam our home during the day with separate gated sleeping areas at night and during feeding times for comfort and safety. A crate is available if your pup is used to one.

Pets

A typical day

-What A Typical Day Looks Like I typically care for 2-3 dogs at a time. We usually start the day off with a morning potty break, breakfast and then your fur baby is free to play with toys, relax on the sofa and roam the house. If the weather is nice, I like to get some backyard play in during my lunch break and then we have our afternoon potty break/backyard play, dinner then another potty break right before bedtime. Im home most of the day ! I understand how important dogs are in a family and will honor any reasonable request to make your dog's stay as comfortable and close to home as possible.

-Tell Me About Your Pup ! I like to know how they do with other dogs and people, their favorite activities, and anything that may stress them out or scare them. If there are certain routines, commands, or habits you’d like me to stick to, I’m happy to keep things as familiar as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I provide daily updates with pictures/videos of your pup. A few things that are especially helpful for me to know: * Any illnesses, recent sickness, or possible contagious symptoms * Medications, allergies, injuries, or special care instructions * Behaviors or habits like separation anxiety, excessive barking, marking, chewing, reactivity, etc. * Any fears, triggers, or past traumatic experiences * How they do around other dogs, new people, and different environments * Whether they are current on vaccines and flea/tick prevention -Meet and Greets We personally do not require Meet and Greets but are more than willing to accommodate your request to have one, as we understand and value a mutually harmonious fit between all parties. Meet and Greets will take place in the kitchen or outside on the front lawn to prevent excessive barking. -What To Bring At Drop off I provide dog bowls, poop bags and dog beds. Please bring your dogs food, treats and a little extra to be used in the event of a travel delay and their favorite treats. To prevent the spread of illness, please do not bring a dog bed/blanket. I have plenty of dog beds with washable covers for our furry guests. Because dogs are treated like family here (including couch time and snuggles), I do ask that pups arrive clean and on flea/tick protection.
