Pet care experience
As a 26-year-old stay-at-home dog enthusiast, I've been walking, tending to, and loving dogs of all kinds for over 15 years. "Oh My Dog! Dog Sittin' Services" is my face to the services, and you'll find me sending back homemade dog treats with my brand on it! My involvement with dogs extends beyond just basic care - I also participate in the show ring, field training, hunting, and anything that gives them more purpose.
Reviews
Rosie had a great time, and we are very grateful! Thank you so much!!
Clara was fantastic! Great communication, and took great care of my girl :-)
Wow! What a great Rover stay Minne had! Clara and Josh have a house made for dogs and a great fenced back yard. There 3 dogs all got along well with Minne. I received plenty of photos to let me know that things were going well. I will definitely use them again!
Clara has been routinely walking and caring for my dogs for a long time now and I would recommend her to anyone! I travel a lot for work and am not able to spend as much time as I’d like to with my fur babies, and she’s the only one I trust to keep them happy and healthy while I’m away. I have never had a complaint and I think my dogs have more fun while I’m away now!

Safety, trust & environment
I supervise dogs 24/7 in my home and I'm always looking for new ways to provide them with mental and physical stimulation. I create small arenas for physical activity and can practice training with your furry friend as well. Our yard features a shallow pond, privacy fence, lots of shade, and plenty of exposure to everyday noise. I'm only a 10-minute walk away from Cottonwood Creek park, where I frequently take the dogs for exercise and fun. Your dog is free to play inside or outside as they please and will have access to the entire living room and a 3,200 sq ft backyard, under my supervision. If you're open to it, our neighbor's kind and gentle children may even come by to give your dog some extra love and attention. However, all dogs will be leashed when leaving the house without exception. Dogs in my care must be friendly with neutered males and unspayed female puppies in my household, so I will require you to come to my home or the nearby park to meet and see if it's a good fit. Our home is located in a sweet, safe suburban area and is very secure.

Information Clara B. would like to know about your pet
I can handle dogs of all sizes, but if your dog is over 45lbs and you want me to walk them, I would like to know how well leash trained they are, for my safety and their safety. This will also determine which walking route I take, as I can choose between less cars and people or I can introduce them to new noises (excellent for puppies) For smaller dogs (under 45lbs) or semi-leash trained dogs, I offer gentle, positively-reinforced leash training while on walks, but I don't use treats. It's also important that your dog is well socialized with both people and other puppies.
A typical day
On a typical day, I supervise and let the dogs socialize and play outside while providing them with unlimited filtered water and basic cheerios as treats during inside playtime. Once a week or so, I bake healthy dog biscuits made from xyletol-free peanut butter, eggs, fresh bananas, strawberries, rolled oats, and high-grade wheat flour. I even eat some myself! We have calming music playing in the background and a small agility course set up for added stimulation. During downtime, you'll find me laying on the ground with the pups or individually talking to them. Rest assured that the dogs never leave my sight. Let me know your preferences, and I'll make sure to tailor their experience accordingly.

As a website developer, I have the flexibility to keep an eye on dogs both inside and outside throughout the day. I understand that each dog is unique, just like people, and I tailor my care to fit their preferred style and personality. For dogs 45lbs and under, I also offer basic grooming services upon request, which includes a bath, natural trim, paw tidying, nail trim, ear cleaning, coat conditioning, light slicker brush detail, and a cute bandana. These tools have come in handy as I also compete in the show ring! As a dog advocate, I'm committed to providing the best care possible for each and every dog that comes my way.
