Pet care experience

My golden doodle is the friendliest

I have owned, trained and even breed dogs since i was a girl. My dogs are complimented for their calm, friendly temperament. i have a fenced in back yard in a quiet dog friendly neighborhood. Max is very intuitive and will gauge whether or not your pup wants to play or just hang, and adapts to all sizes. When the weather is bad your dog will be great company with a whole finished basement to romp in. I am at home full time including weekends and holidays. During high demand times, I might take two guest dogs. This arrangement will be made only with dogs I have sat for and I am comfortable that each pup will be treated to their unique stays. (OK, but really a second dog plus mine, can make for a more activity in my experience they have more fun). Your dog will not be bored and will return wagging its tail as they arrive on return! I am working from home and will be able to meet your schedule for pick-ups and arrivals. Flexible for additional services and if stuck last minute?

This weekend was our first time having Deborah walk Chunkers, and it was a great experience. She was reliable, caring, and Chunkers clearly loved her. I felt very comfortable knowing he was in good hands and would definitely recommend her.

Debra took such good care of our dog and is the loveliest person. He had a wonderful time with her dog Max and she sent us cute photo updates as well. A true gem.

Schedule

I will be in and out every few hours with your pup. Sometimes they enjoy gardening or picking blueberries or grilling dinner outside. The first night can be a little hard on some dogs and I find lights out and some quiet music helps settle their excited brain down.
