It’s important for me to know any fears or triggers that a dog may have and the best way to care for them through those things. Additionally, any allergies, behaviors, or communication styles that the owner determines important to care. It is important to note: we have two friendly and playful dogs in our home, so it’s helpful to know how your pet does around other dogs.

Mental and physical enrichment is the name of the game. I start off mornings with outside time to explore in the yard, then breakfast and resting time inside. Dogs are welcome in all areas of the house (couch and lap dogs encouraged!) and have ample access to toys, alone time if needed, and a comfy place to rest. I prepare enrichment activities such as puzzles, snuffles, lick mats, and to keep their minds stimulated while in my care. We take multiple opportunities to play outside and enjoy walks around the neighborhood!
