Happy, loving friend to all pawed
Pet care experience
I've spent 3 years professionally working in a dog rescue center, then a dog daycare directly with the dogs. I love spending the day surrounded with pawed friends. I have owned or fostered many dogs including pug, staffy, spaniel, border collie, hound, bouvier, giant chow, and bichon ranging from 3 months - 16 years old. I am very comfortable with small, medium and large breeds of different ages and I vary my play styles and walks to suit the needs of each individual dog. I only use positive based methods to encourage and enhance desirable behavior and will not accept and physical punishment/corrections. I am comfortable using whatever collar/halty/harness system you have chosen for your dog during walks or exercise times and have experience with many different sorts. When a dog is boarding with me, they are my #1 focus and so my routine changes to fit their play, outdoor, sleep and meal times. I love cuddling dogs on my couch in the evenings and treat each dog as if it were my own. Boarding guests need to be house trained and able to sleep a full night (6+ hrs). I am experienced in giving medications orally, and for ears and eyes but not intravenous medications.
Reviews
What an amazing experience! Getting quality care for our 5 cats when away has been difficult until now. When we came in our kitties were so happy to see us right away. Our home smelled fresh. I’m certain our vacuum was used! Blythe sent updates and photos. They enjoyed pets and play time. I know they felt safe and loved big time. Highly recommended! We had total peace of mind. Thank you Blythe! -Emma, Paulie, Frank, Midnight and Gene ❤️
Blythe is fantastic! She took such amazing care of my two dogs! She treated them just as her own! She is very trustworthy and accommodating! We will be using Blythe in the future.
Blythe was amazing, and worked so well with my dogs! They came home very happy and tired. I highly recommend Blythe to give above and beyond care to your pets!
Blythe is amazing. I will continue to have her watch my dog - I'm grateful to have found this wonderful human being.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large back yard and running space but as it is not fenced, I will be keeping dogs on long-lines to ensure their safety. The property has access to the St Lawrence river so if your dog is a swimmer we will have loads of fun. The animals have their own bedroom in my home (yes full bedroom with a nice double bed they can curl up on if they want) that's next to mine. If they prefer, they can join me in my room but that will be on the floor or in heir crate if that is their usual sleeping habit. They are able to go on the furniture in my home, but that will of course be subject to your training choices. They will be spending their day watching the ships go by on the river, or the birds flying in the trees, as well as enjoying walks, playtime both inside and out and of course lots of cuddles with me. It all comes down to I love animals and will treat them like my own, but with your training and rules in place. I want to ensure your animal is happy, stress free and tired at the end of the day. Either in your home or mine, I will ensure that your animal is loved and has a wonderful day. Also, I take lots of pictures and the occasional video that I can send you on a regular basis so you can see their happy smiles, goofy grins and any fun times we are having together.

Information Blythe R. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds, ages and sizes. I will need to know about any allergies, injuries, medications, food and toy preferences your dog has. Also a general idea of their average temperament and energy level is appreciated.
A typical day
I will play both inside and outdoors with your dog through out our time together. On walks we go through a forest to really get them sniffing about, play on a playstructure which challenges their brains and keeps them focused and happy and there are large fields for them to run on long lines and do zoomies in.
