Pet care experience

I have more than 50 yrs experience caring for my own dogs from puppies to seniors and almost 3 yrs dog sitting. My husband and I enjoy playing ball and walking the dogs also Rudy; our 11 year old Shih Tzu loves having new friends come and stay with us We do not crate dogs! We have a fenced in yard and we love to take the pups for walks at local parks (not dog parks) if permitted by the owner. I only take 2 dogs at a time, this allows the pups to get the attention they need while you’re away 😋

Arleen was so great with my pups. She is very loving takes them for walks. She keeps you updated how they are doing. I love that.

Arleen was wonderful! Very communicative and sent photos daily. I could tell my dog was comfortable and happy staying with her.

Arleen is great! She took good care of our Gidget and kept us posted on how she was doing. She treated Gidget special, just like she was her own. She sent us pictures and videos to put us at ease. Her dog Rudy is a sweetie and was a good playmate for Gidget. I highly recommend Arleen for anyone looking for a pet sitter. The special attention she received from Arleen was much better than a boarding kennel could have provided.

We had such a wonderful experience! Arleen and her husband were fantastic and made us feel comfortable right away. Their dog, Rudy, is such a sweet boy and welcomed our girl, Vegas, immediately. We were quite nervous leaving her because she struggles with separation anxiety and is very attached to her mom but within an hour, Arleen sent photo updates of Vegas snuggling in their laps and giving kisses! It was such a relief. We are already looking forward to our next getaway knowing Vegas is in such great hands.
