As a Leadership and Financial Coach who works from home, I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life. My own beloved dog, Kara, is part of my family—she enjoys a balanced meal of boiled turkey, sweet potatoes, and dry duck food, and we share daily walks in our safe, quiet neighborhood. Every afternoon at 5:00 PM, we take a special pause for fun playtime together. I live in a welcoming end-unit townhome that features a lovely yard and a private walkout basement with plenty of grassy space. You can trust that I will care for your pet with the same love, warmth, and dedication as I do for my own.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet will be treated like my own pet, i.e., allowed on the furniture and bed, unless they use a crate or they have a bed. I use a retractable leash with built-in flashlight, that includes a poo bag holder. Happy to give them a bath with sensitive skin dog shampoo. If they need a nail trim, just let me know, it's a little extra but worth it. If I missed something, just let me know, happy to accommodate as I can. If I am at your house, I will follow your instructions according to your needs while also doing the same above.

Information Barbara H. would like to know about your pet

I welcome and encourage you to share any and all information that will help me keep your pet safe, happy, and healthy. Including their play, sleep, and eat preferences. For example, my Kara does not like you to touch her head when greeting her, she has a finicky stomach and only eats certain foods and treats, she also doesn't love walking, but enjoys sniffing the entire walk. When it snows, she needs to wear boots or she'll fall over like she's paralyzed. Let me know how I can take care of your sweet pet to keep them happy and safe.

A typical day

A few walks around my neighborhood during the day, with a 5 O'clock playtime of fetch. Dinner. Search for treats (works the brain). A longer walk weather permitting. Bedtime teeth brushing. Toys in bed, one last play. Sweet dreams!

Barbara is excellent! She sent pics and updates daily and she spoiled my dog with several walks throughout the day! She treated him as if he was her own. She is a great communicator and very responsive. I couldn't have asked for a better first stay experience and I happily recommend Barbara!
