🐾 WFH Small Dog Specialist 🐾

🐾 Your pup's happiness and safety are top priorities—always. Hello! I know how nerve-wracking it can be to entrust your pup to someone else. That's why I promise to treat your little guy like my own, with plenty of love, attention, and care. Dogs have been part of my life since childhood, and I've had Oliver, a cheeky 14-year-old bichon, since he was a puppy. My experience ranges from energetic younger pups to seniors who need a slower pace and closer awareness. While I don’t have a backyard, I do have a fully enclosed balcony with fresh sod that pups can access anytime. I work from home four days a week, and on the one day I go into the office (normally Wednesdays), I always come home during lunch for walks and to make sure they’re settled. I only host one pup at a time (unless they're from the same family), so your pup will have dedicated care and attention. Nothing compares to being at home, but I’ll do everything I can to help you and your pup feel comfortable while you're away.

Daphne is truly the best! She’s so communicative (sends multiple updates and pictures throughout the day), extremely caring to our pup Walter, and was so flexible when our flight was delayed getting home. Could not recommend her enough!

Daphne is so wonderful and caring with our senior dog Riley! She even made him rice and pumpkin when his stomach wasn’t feeling great. He always loves getting to spend time with her!

Daphne went above and beyond for me and my fur kid, Genevieve! She took extra special care of her by following all of my requests and even went the extra mile to wipe her face and keep her ears from getting tangled (she’s a Spaniel) which meant so much to me! She treated Genevieve just like her own and Genevieve had such a good time with her, I wasn’t sure she wanted to come home ;) Her communication was top notch, attention to detail was fantastic and I couldn’t be more thankful to you and sweet Oliver for all your help with her! 5 star sitter here, 10/10 recommend!

Schedule

I work from home four days a week, so your pup will have plenty of attention. On the one day I’m in the office (usually Wednesdays), I come home during lunch to let them out and make sure they’re comfortable.

Safety, trust & environment

Pups are welcome to make themselves at home, including relaxing on whatever furniture they like. While I don’t have a yard, I do have a fully enclosed balcony with fresh sod that they can use anytime. I also take pups out for regular walks based on their routine and comfort level.

A typical day

Our day begins with a morning walk, followed by a mix of playtime and naps. We'll venture out for more strolls throughout the day and after work. If your pup is staying over, we'll take another walk before bed.
