I Strive for Tailwags!

Pet care experience

Update: 7/7/23 I have now been a dog sitter for 9 years with the last 7 years being full time. I feel like I acquired so much knowledge and experience in working with dogs on a daily basis. I now know what works and doesn't work. My house is setup to be the most efficient in handling multiple pups at once. I offer supplies as well. (Treats, Leashes, Stainless steel bowls, Beds, Blankets, Toys, Crates if your dog is crate trained) I like to make it as easy as possible for you. it just means less things you have to worry about. Drop offs/Pick ups are quick and easy to coordinate! I truly love what I do and enjoy every day that I'm able too. I treat every pup as if they were my own. I'm confident that your fur babies are in good hands. Thank you so much for considering me :) (Original post) My true experience starts with my little boy Dexter. I adopted him at 4 months old, knowing he just had his eye removed. He also had demodectic mange. ( experience oral/applied medication early on) He passed his dog therapy program with flying colors! We spent the first two years of his life walking the halls of retirement homes, assisted living and rehab centers. Bringing smiles to people's faces! I spent 6 months helping care for my sister's senior/disabled pug doing rehab work to get her walking short distance without her wheelchair. I've dog sat several family and friends furry little babies as well.

Maui's stay with Art was fantastic! He had a lot of fun with the other pups running around. Would 100% recommend booking a stay for your furry friend with him.

Art is awesome! Great communication. It was my first time leaving my puppy for the weekend. Art was super nice and explained the whole process. The drop off process was easy and i didnt have to worry about briniging all of my puppys stuff since Art has evrerything covered. My puppy enjoyed her stay so much. She got to meet new friends. It was very sweet of Art to assure me that my pup will be ok. He sent updates and pictures of how she was doing. I will definitely bring my puppy back to Art for overnight stays and playdates as I know he will take great care of her. Thanks again Art! ?Travie

Art was such an amazing sitter! It was my first time leaving my dog and he was well taken care of. Art sent me pictures and videos and updated me every day and this one put my mind at ease knowing that my dog was safe, and having fun! Best dog sitter in town. Highly recommend! Thank you Art.

A typical day

Walks will be in my well established HOA neighborhood. It is fairly quiet and great for walking around. There's tons of trees, bushes, grass and flowers for them to sniff and do their business on. One block from my house is a nice park that Dex and I frequent often. Large open grassy area, away from busy streets. Access to Levee. Very short 5 minute ride to nearby dog park. (If okay with owner) I take my responsibility for your dog very seriously, so I don't take them off leash. unless at dog park or at home. Loves and kisses! Toys and treats!
