Doggone Good Time Guaranteed

Pet care experience

Creating Happy Tails, One Visit at a Time! With a heart full of love for your furry friends and over a decade of dedicated experience, I am passionate about providing top-notch care for small and medium-sized dogs of all ages. I believe in the power of individualized care. Understanding that every dog is unique, I tailor my services to cater to your furry friend's specific needs, preferences, and personality. I take time to get to know each pet and ensure they feel comfortable and safe. As a pet owner myself, I understand the need for peace of mind while away, and I strive to provide just that. I keep an open line of dialogue with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos and ensuring that you are informed and reassured about your pet's well-being. I am able to provide oral medication and specific services as needed to ensure your pet's care.

Alex is wonderful. She came every day and sent pictures of the cats eating etc. She is very responsible. As a result, on vacation I didn't have the worry over my cats hanging over my head. Thank you Alex!

Safety, trust & environment

Pets thrive on love and attention, and I'm more than happy to provide plenty of cuddles and affection. Whether it's a scratch behind the ears, belly rubs, or simply sitting together, I ensure your pet feels cherished and secure in your absence. I prioritize regular and stimulating walks or backyard play to ensure your pet gets the exercise they need. Maintaining your pet's regular feeding schedule is crucial for their well-being. I follow your specific feeding instructions, ensuring that your pet receives the right portion sizes, dietary requirements, or oral medication as needed. For overnight stays, I create a cozy and comfortable environment for your pet. I'll follow your established bedtime routine, whether it involves a specific sleeping arrangement or favorite bedtime rituals. Your pet's comfort and security are paramount, and I aim to replicate the familiarity of their usual sleeping conditions.

Information Alex F. would like to know about your pet

Please advise on any existing medical conditions or health concerns and well as medications the dog is taking and specific instructions for administration. How does your dog typically reacts to strangers, other animals, and new environments? Please let me know if you have encountered any behavioral issues or triggers that should be addressed or avoided during walks or outdoor activities. How would you rate your dog's tolerance for being approached or handled by strangers? Knowledge of any escape routes or areas where the dog should be closely monitored in your home is very important for me to ensure your pet's overall safety. Having this knowledge allows me to provide the best possible care tailored to the individual needs of your dog.

A typical day

I love to use enrichment toys for interactive play, such as squeaky toys, rope toys, or puzzle toys that dispense treats. I also love blowing pet-safe bubbles and watching as they try to catch and pop them. My favorite activity is spending quality time petting, cuddling, and giving belly rubs to make them feel loved and secure. I am able to adapt activities to the individual preferences and energy levels of your dog. The goal is to create a positive and enjoyable experience for them in your absence.
