Leave ‘em and we’ll love ‘em!

Pet care experience

I love animals! Owned & cared for all age dogs/cats for 20 years. Can support training, ease anxiety, provide medication. Frequent walks and playtime. Walks can be on sidewalks and/or through the woods. Former foster parent for dogs and cats. Home full time which will help your pet adjust once in our home. Flexible with hours/days and can support last minute requests. Walks and outside time will take place every 0-2 hours unless owner prefers a different schedule. OUTSIDE CARE: We have a large fenced in yard. There is space to run/play as well as get shade if needed. Your pet will never be left outside alone/unattended. Walks can be on the sidewalk through our quiet neighborhood and/or in the woods by our house depending on your preferences. Dogs will remain on a leash if on a walk. A local dog park is 1 mile away too. If your dog likes to go for a run - I’ll take him/her! INSIDE CARE: Pets are welcome inside, in all rooms and on furniture! We have 2 pugs who love other animals and being comfy on the sofa. Our pugs sleep in a crate at night but never during the day. Happy to crate or not crate your fur baby so their routine is as similar to their home environment as possible. Pets will be walked immediately in the morning and before bed to avoid accidents. They’ll also be walked and played with a lot throughout the day. I have 4 kids who are “pet trained” so they’ll provide love and attention without aggravating your dog/cat. Our family is happy to accommodate special requests to make your baby feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. We love animals and will treat them like our own! BOOKING POLICY for OVERNIGHT SERVICE: Rate is per 24-hours of care. Depending on the duration of stay a daycare rate may apply (in addition to the overnight rate).
