Information April D. would like to know about your pet

What is your pet’s usual feeding, walking, and potty schedule? I want to keep things as consistent as possible to make them feel at ease. Does your pet have any favorite toys, activities, or places they like to go? Are they shy, energetic, get along well with other animals? Do loud noises or unfamiliar environments cause them stress?

A typical day

When I visit your dog, I will make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. A typical visit includes: 20-Minute Walk. We’ll take a fun, brisk walk to get some fresh air and exercise. Whether your pup loves sniffing around the neighborhood or prefers a quicker pace, I’ll make sure they get the movement they need. After our walk, I’ll refresh their water bowl to keep them hydrated. I will spend the last 10 minutes giving your pup some extra love—whether that’s playing with their favorite toy, tossing a ball, or giving belly rubs and snuggles. I tailor each visit to your dog’s energy level and preferences to make sure they’re happy and well cared for until you return!
