Pet care experience

Attentive, small scale, dog sitter

I’ve cared for all sorts of animals in my 40 years, from my own pets to fostering dozens of dogs from local shelters, nurturing them until they find their furever homes. I’ve decided to share my passion for caring for animals by helping pets and their owners feel at ease while they’re away. I’m transparent, dependable, and treat every pet like family. I have a large fenced in yard, Furbo pet cameras, and use AirTags for collars for extra peace of mind. I have two friendly dogs, and two sweet cats. I’m home full time to provide walks, playtime, and potty breaks. My goal is to keep your dog’s routine as similar to home as possible, feeding, sleeping, potty, and exercise. I have found this creates the most comfortable and familiar environment for them while you are away. I accept no more than 4 small/medium rover dogs at a time. I can also care for larger poodles and doodles. I am home full time.

Highly recommend Autumn and Paul! They have taken care of our pups a couple times now and have done an exceptional job. Our pups were well loved, given great care and attention and were so happy when we picked them up. So glad we have found this sweet family to care for our dogs when we are away.

Autumn and Paul took such great care of Simba. They provided phot updates and made sure he was comfortable in their home. I would definitely leave him with them again.

Paprika had a blast at Autumn and Paul’s! They were so sweet to her when she was nervous during storms. They treated her like one of their own family members! I received plenty of pics and updates while I was away that let me know Paprika was well taken care of. I’m pretty sure she didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up.

Autumn and Paul were great boarders and so accommodating to our dog Max! I was comfortable leaving him at their home bc I knew they would take good care of him and treat him as their own! We had a wonderful experience with them. Max was very happy staying there and we had constant communication while we were gone. We will definitely use them again!

Autumn and Paul were amazing! They sent daily pictures, took my dog Bella on walks and played with her, and just took the best care of Bella while we were gone! Highly recommend! 5 stars!

Safety, trust & environment

Pets in my care enjoy a safe, loving, and structured environment. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of grass, a doggie door for easy access, and Furbo cameras when I leave the house. I use removable AirTags on collars for extra peace of mind. I have fostered and cared for dozens of animals from shelters, so I can easily adapt to all types of personalities and situations. I will go the extra mile to make them feel comfortable, like sleeping situations and even hand feeding picky eaters. Dogs are fed in separate quarters so they don’t eat each others food.

Pets

A typical day

I’m home all day, and only leave the house for quick errands. Dogs can free roam, or be gated in a room or crate depending on what they are used to while I am away, otherwise they are with me in the house. Dogs are let out every 2-3 hours, we have a fenced in yard but I like to stay with them outside. We like to go for 20 minute walks in the cool evenings with dogs who enjoy walking.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, or behavioral quirks so I can provide the best care possible. Dogs don’t have to be fully house trained, but I do need to know ahead of time so I can prepare accordingly. All pets must have local vet contact information, be current on vaccines and flea/tick/heartworm prevention, spay/neutered. My home is located by Phase 3 Fitness on Hugh’s RD and Culver’s on Wall Triana. During Meet and Greets, I like for new dogs to explore the backyard before meeting our dogs, or coming into the house. I have found that this makes the process easier when dogs meet as well.
