Hypoallergenic pets up to 25 lbs :)

Pet care experience

I work from home daily, so your pets get lots of attention and engagement! I only take one booking at a time as well, so it's always only your pup and mine, so I can ensure safety! I have significant allergies, so please ensure your pup is actually a low dander and low shed breed. The 25 pound limit is because I've found it takes a lot of maintenance to keep larger dogs from intimidating my 9 lb pup, which isn't fun for anyone. I kindly ask that no bookings are made with a drop-off before 7:30 AM as I've learned there is no such thing as a drop-off without waking my pups up & it really distupts their schedule! If pick-up & drop-off are more than 8 hrs apart, Rover now charges an extra day, so it's often not a cost savings over a relaxed drop-off the night before :) Also, if there are any schedule adjustments over 2 hrs total from the original booking, please submit them through the Rover app. This ensures insurance coverage for the full period, just in case a pup is ever not feeling well! Winston is almost 2 and loves to sniff around and play tug of war. Loki is great with other dogs & will happily chase down dogs twice his size to play with them. They've both been temperament tested for doggy daycare & do great there with all different kinds of dogs! I have a wavy & curly Doodle, so I'm experienced with their grooming needs; however, my pups do well with weekly brushing, so let me know if yours needs more! Both of my dogs are actively trained daily for mental stimulation and Winston knows many queues (sit, down/off, lay down, wait, calm, quiet, leave it, etc). When your pups are here, I will engage them in training also, including not jumping or pulling during walks, if needed. When I'm working from home, there's still plenty of space to romp and play in my office or downstairs, if I work there. I have a small fully-fenced back yard for potty breaks & play. I live on a private road that exits on a quiet side street, which is great for 30-60 minute daily walks. There is also a dog-friendly fully-fenced park and path a short distance away for longer weekend walks and play time.

Thank you for taking care of Coco for over a week! We were nervous about being gone so long, but knew he was in good hands with you. Appreciate the updates and questions you had throughout his stay.

Information Brooke D. would like to know about your pet

Please confirm that your dog is good with small active dogs (9-15 lbs) and is hypoallergenic (very low/no shed). Let me know about any hand signals or words that your dog has been trained with and if your dog is clicker or bell trained - I want to ensure that your pup feels understood when communicating! If there are any special needs, a special diet, car sickness or other things that are special about your pet, please share them. Also, please let me know what your pup is accustomed to for bedtime as keeping their routine means a happier pup! Thank you!

A typical day

I love to engage with dogs and have them play games, use treat puzzles, do training, go for walks and check out the backyard space! On weekends, if there's decent weather, I take pups to a fully-fenced off-leash park nearby for small breed only. If your dog shouldn't be off-leash around small dogs and/or children, please let me know! I'm generally pretty good at gauging temperament quickly & read all pet notes too, so as long as the info is there, I'll use it. I'm pretty slow to allow other dogs off-leash generally.

Availability

I work from home M-F. All pups get yard play time in the morning, again on lunch, a walk after work and more yard play time in the evening. If the weather is poor, my schedule allows flexibility to have yard time and walks during breaks in the rain or, alternatively, I play fetch in the house down a long hallway. If your pup needs 2 daily walks, please let me know!
