Backyard Bliss ~ Come run Zoomies!

Pet care experience

In essence, my goal is to offer a uniquely attentive, enriching, and joyous experience for your dog, one that stands out not just in the quality of care, but in the happiness and growth they experience during their time with me. My approach encompasses not just the essentials of food, health, and play, but a comprehensive care philosophy that ensures a fulfilling and joyful experience for your pet. Over the years, I've honed my skills in training dogs, mastering techniques to teach them commands like sit, stay, lay down, leave it, and even to recognize toys and treat names by heart. More importantly, I've made it a fun and rewarding process for them, turning learning into an exciting game. This not only allows your dog to thrive under my care but also brings me immense joy and satisfaction. What truly defines my service is the attentiveness and dedication I bring to each dog's learning journey, ensuring they enjoy their time to the fullest while staying with me. They also have the wonderful opportunity to socialize with my two dogs, making their stay even more enjoyable. As a bonus, I love capturing those special moments your pet experiences, from the majestic to the hilariously goofy. Expect to receive a collection of wonderful photos and videos that capture the essence of their stay. Will offer care for larger dog sizes depending on breed and specifications, just send me a message and we can see if it is a good fit! Unfortunately I cannot offer cat care, as my partner is allergic and I wouldn’t be able to offer a fair, happy experience. Thank you for your trust and support ❤️

Our dogs were so calm after we picked them up from Cassandra! She sent lots of pictures and videos and it really cheered us up to know our pups were being well taken care of. The big backyard was awesome, I can tell they got to run around and get a lot of energy out! Thanks Cassandra!

Safety, trust & environment

I firmly believe that understanding and responding to an animal's communication signals is a fundamental aspect of pet care. Recognizing their unique ways of saying, "I'd love a treat right now," or "I need to go outside—or perhaps it's just playtime!" and even the less vocal, but equally important, "I need some attention," or a simple, "I'm content just napping right now," is crucial. This nuanced communication is something I've learned to appreciate deeply, especially from experiences with my own rescue pets. For me, paying attention to and actively engaging with pets are distinct yet equally important facets of pet ownership. I revel in the joy of outdoor play, watching my dogs run and enjoy their freedom, and I find balance in offering treats just often enough to keep them happy and my own peace of mind intact. Safety, too, is paramount, whether it's ensuring a secure play area or understanding and respecting each pet's personality and habits. Pet care is an art and a science that goes far beyond the basics, involving a deep commitment to their emotional and physical well-being. I take immense pride in extending this level of care and affection not only to my own pets but to all the lovable, drooly, fluffy companions out there. Providing love and care to these wonderful beings is not just a duty; it's a passion that enriches my life immeasurably.

A typical day

I'm thrilled to offer an array of engaging activities for your beloved pet, including exhilarating zoomies, engaging tug-of-war sessions, refreshing walks, and memorable photo opportunities. Our arsenal of toys is extensive, featuring various balls, a dedicated thrower, and frisbees of different sizes to cater to every preference. I firmly believe in the importance of personalized care and attention, ensuring all pets interact harmoniously and receive equal amounts of love and exercise tailored to their usual routine. I'm eager to align with your pet's established walking schedule and preferences, so please feel free to share details about their typical walking times and whether neighborhood strolls are preferred. My goal is to seamlessly integrate into their routine, providing the same level of physical activity they're accustomed to, whether that includes adventures in parks or paths, if that's something you're comfortable with. Additionally, rest assured, they will enjoy plenty of free playtime in the yard throughout the day.

My days are richly filled at home, particularly when I have the privilege of caring for other animals. There's a special kind of joy in observing my own dogs as they welcome and play with visiting pups in the yard. This shared happiness among all the dogs is truly heartwarming and serves as a beautiful reminder of the simple joys of companionship. Traveling to visit my newly born niece and siblings a few times a year offers a cherished change of scenery and family bonding time. Between these visits, my life revolves around my work and the continuous journey of learning and self-improvement. Whenever possible, I seize the opportunity to explore Rhode Island's dog parks and bike paths. These excursions are not just exercises for the body but also a balm for the soul, allowing me to connect more deeply with the world around me and the animals under my care.
