I live in a spacious apartment with a fenced private yard for Maple and your pup to play in. I have plenty of toys and activities to keep dogs engaged, active, and happy. My Maple is very playful and loves having new friends around. We are always happy to set up a meet up to make sure your pup and Maple are comfortable. We do not take dogs to the dog park for safety reasons.

Information Alexandra K. would like to know about your pet

My Maple, is very energetic, playful and submissive. She loves meeting new dogs and people, and befriends everyone quickly. I watch carefully how all pups play and from my dog training experience I understand when pups need a break from other dogs. I have multiple crates and baby gates just in case if any pup starts playing a little too rough. :)

A typical day

Maple and I are a team in taking care of your pup! We keep your pup engaged with fun activities like practicing training behaviors, playing tug-of-war, or fetch. If your pup is high energy and likes to play, they will likely love hanging out with Maple in the backyard. Maple hasn’t met a pup that she didn’t want to play with. If your pup is laid back, they will likely enjoy spending quality cuddle time with me on the couch.

Playful Golden & Fenced Shaded Yard

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m Sasha (short for Alexandra). I am a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’m currently raising and training my 1.5 year old golden retriever, Maple, who is on her way to becoming a certified therapy dog. Together, we’ve completed four training courses to prepare her for future visits to hospitals, and schools. Before Maple, I raised and trained a sweet tri-colored corgi named Bear, who sparked my passion for dogs and positive reinforcement training. Whether your dog needs cuddles, enrichment, training, or just a companion to hang out with during the day, I’m here to have them feel safe, loved, and entertained. If you book with us, you will likely receive lots of photos/videos and updates on how your pup is having fun with Maple and I.

Calli always has the best time when she stays with Alexandra. She comes home and has to sleep all the fun off for two days. Great communicator. Sends lots of updates, photos, videos. A+!

Wow. How amazing is Alexandra?! I was really worried about leaving my high anxiety, elder dog for a week while I was out of the country. Alexandra took wonderful care of him and sent me daily photos, videos, and updates. It was such a relief to know he was so well taken care of while I was gone. Highly recommended!
