A safe and fun visit for your dog!
Pet care experience
My family and I love animals! It is such a reward to take care of your precious pup. Your furry friend with receive lots of attention! Services include lots of snuggles, walks, and of course so much love! Based on your requirements, we will work with you to create a personalized play-date specific to them. A typical day will include 1-on-1 time with your pet, lots of potty breaks, stimulating doggy games, tons of attention, and of course, every day will end with a fun Yappy Hour! Your dog's safety is our first priority. Our home is clean, dog-friendly, and free of harmful chemicals or objects that could harm your pet. Because your dog is unique, it is important for us to create a customized day-plan based on their personality, needs, and wants. We look forward to making memories and treating your dog as an extension of our family. It would be my pleasure to serve you and your pet!

Took excellent care of our 2 boys while we are working in office.
Barbara was amazing! She has this amazing kind and positive energy and I could tell Rocky was loved and spoiled during his stay :) I'm so happy that I found Barbara. I highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment
TRUST is a critical component to my practice. It is always my first priority to keep your fury family member safe, calm and happy. Building a bond of trust with my animal visitors is just as important as the relationship I encourage and hope to earn with their pet owners.

Information Barbara H. would like to know about your pet
I do not take certain breeds because of my own personal comfort level and ability to control a situation. Unfortunately, for pitbull owners, you would be best suited with a different sitter. The more you are able to share on your dog's tempermant, habits, idiosyncrasies, etc., the better I will be about to provide a fun and safe environment for your pet. Important Note: Finally, if your dog is not house-trained, or prone to accidents, marking, chewing (even clothes) or excessive barking, I am not a good fit for your visit. I work from home and the barking is distracting. I understand separation anxiety is common so I ensure to pay extra attention to helping your pet adjust with a kind heart. However after 24/hrs, if your pet is still displaying the same behaviors, it will no longer be a good fit for your pet or me; as your pet sitter. Additionally, accidents and chewing cost me monies that Rover does not reinberse. If this occurs, I will call and request that your emergency back-up picks up your pet. Thank you for understanding. * Before booking, please include an emergency contact who can pick up you pet if we (owner/sitter) determine, it's not a good fit. *
A typical day
We will customize the type of walk your pet will enjoy most without stress or anxiety. From 5 minutes to 1 hour, 1 block to 4 miles... Trails, street, off-road, avoiding other dogs, etc. Also, if you prefer no walk, we can have a blast with toys, balls, pully's and games in a safe and secured fenced backyard.
