Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lovers with a flexible schedule
My family and I love dogs and would enjoy hosting your pup! I have over 15 years of experience in dog care, including that of our own beloved dog George who lived to 19.5 years old. Our household includes two middle school aged kids who love to have dog visitors and are sensitive to their needs, from lots of play, and attention, to helping with walks, to allowing a quiet cozy space to rest.

Ratings and reviews
Claire was communicative and flexible for a last minute rover sitting. She kept great care of Beanie. I look forward to having her watch Beanie again
Claire & her family took such great care of our dog Sunny. :) We received lots of photo updates and it was apparent how much Sunny was enjoying herself!
Wallace loved staying with Claire and her family. They even made him an Easter egg hunt with his treats. He might’ve had a better vacation than I did!
Claire and her family are so wonderful! Mabel had the best time and got lots of pets from her new gal pals. Super easy to talk to and sends plenty of updates. Mabel can’t wait to go back!
Really sweet and kind family, quick and easy to communicate with. Kuzco came home happy and exhausted, the perfect combo!
Claire and her family did an amazing job watching our puppy, Bo Peep! It was clear from the start that she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. Bo Peep got plenty of walks, playtime, and activities, and came home super happy and well cared for. Claire was also very communicative throughout the stay and sent lots of updates, which gave us real peace of mind. We always knew how Bo Peep was doing. I would absolutely trust Claire to watch Bo Peep again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Schedule
I have a flexible schedule and am often home. I can typically accommodate walks with advance notice and sometimes the day of. Please get in touch with boarding requests.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Please note that I live on the third floor of a walk-up so I can only take dogs who can do stairs! (I can carry small dogs if needed, as long as they don't mind being carried - I did this often with my own dog.)
A typical day
We'll go for lots of walks and to the dog park if your pup plays well with others. At home we'll give plenty of loving attention, belly rubs, and snuggle time if that's your dog's jam. We also like to work on tricks and training to stimulate their minds.

- Please let me know ahead of time about any destructive behaviors - chewing, digging, etc or bad habits (like eating rocks or socks) that we would need to watch out for. I won't host dogs who are not fully housebroken and tend to have accidents inside (except puppies).
