Experienced dog sitter/owner here!

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs my entire life. I currently have a dog of my own named Phoebe who loves making new friends and would definitely appreciate play dates and/or overnight guests as often as possible. Whatever your dog’s exercise needs are, they can be filled with us. We’re just as comfortable hiking 10 miles as we are being couch potatoes. While here, your pet will be treated as family; I’m confident they’ll love us just as much as we love them! All feline friends are welcome as well! Phoebe does wonderfully with cats and we wouldn’t want them to feel left out while your dog is having all the fun.

Cat did an amazing job with my sometimes anxious Aussie. She felt right at home, made fast friends with Cat’s dog Phoebe, and had a blast. She even got a bath before returning home! Will definitely book again!

Cat did such an amazing job with Sushi! She took him on long walks, fed him treats, and he loved playing with her pup. She was also very flexible with pick-up and drop-off. I would definitely rebook with Cat in the future.

Cat was great. She took good care of our two dogs by walking and feeding them 3 times a day. She kept in touch and sent us the cutest pictures of our pups! They really like Cat too. We will definitely use her again!

Information Cat A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, medications, or behavioral triggers that I should know about! There isn’t much I haven’t seen before, but definitely appreciate the heads up.

A typical day

Your pet will never be bored with us. We like to spend our days outside as much as possible (weather depending) going hiking, running, to the dog park, or playing in the water at the beach. If your dog prefers a quieter, lazier day, my apartment is stocked with comfy dog beds, pillows, and a huge couch to lounge on. Plus, our cabinets are always stocked with treats (we have diet-friendly treats at the ready, just let me know beforehand)! There are plenty of off and on-leash dog-friendly activities/parks in the area; we can do whatever or go wherever you and your pet are comfortable! Bonus; I’m obsessed with taking pictures of my dog, so you’ll definitely be getting several cute photo updates a day.
