Walks to the Park, Huge Yard & Love

Dogs have been my family since the day I was born! Over the years, I’ve had the joy of raising and training a Husky, Samoyed, Akita, and now my two incredible Shih Tzu-Poodles, Cosmo and Tycho, and Argo a Giant Schauzer puppy. Every one of them has been trained with love, and I truly believe nothing gives purer love than a dog. Cosmo, our 17 year-old pup, is full of life, you wouldn’t even be able to tell his age! He loves meeting new friends, and we have a great yard where dogs can enjoy unlimited playtime in a safe and fun environment. My favorite part of the day is our daily walks to the park, where we get fresh air, exercise, and plenty of tail wags. Beyond caring for my own dogs, I’ve also volunteered at shelters, giving love and care to those in need. I understand how important it is to find a sitter who treats your pet like family—that’s exactly what I offer. We also speak five languages—Spanish, English, Portuguese, French, and Slovak—so we can easily communicate with both dogs and their humans from all backgrounds. Every birthday party of celebration includes our friends pets! I can’t wait for Cosmo to meet his new neighbors and for your pup to join our little dog-loving family! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon!

Our dog had a great time for a one week stay with Debra. She even gave him eye drops that he needed.

Debra was fantastic! She was way to communicate with, sent lots of pictures and videos, and took great care of Sadie. Sadie had so much fun playing with the other dogs and she came home happy and tired! I would definitely work with Debra again!

Debra saved us. Our original sitter bailed with less than 24 hours notice, and Debra stepped in without missing a beat for a full week. From the first message she felt calm and on top of it, which made all the difference when we were scrambling. She sent photos and daily check-ins the whole time, so we never had to wonder how our pup was doing. When we picked him up, he was completely chill and clearly well loved. Can’t recommend her enough!!

Pets

A typical day

I love to keep dogs active, both physically and mentally. We start the day with a refreshing walk, allowing them to take in new smells and enjoy the outdoors. Throughout the day, we play engaging games, work on basic training if needed, and enjoy plenty of love and attention. We also take trips to a big park near my home for extra fun and socialization. With unlimited access to my fenced yard, they’ll have plenty of space to roam, play, and relax at their own pace.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, dietary restrictions, or behavioral traits I should be aware of to ensure their comfort and safety. I welcome all breeds and temperaments, but it’s helpful to know their energy level, socialization preferences, and any quirks that make them unique. Whether they need extra cuddles, medication, or a quiet space, I’m happy to accommodate their needs!
