Semi-Fenced in Yard. Lots of walks

Pet care experience

I’m just a dog lover and have been a dog owner for the past 11 years. I also have experience in rescuing dogs and placing them in loving forever homes. I’m used to caring for multiple dogs as I’ve had 2 pit bulls since they were puppies until one passed at 11 years old to cancer. My other dog loves having company come over and is available to play with any friendly dogs. I work during the week as an Accountant but I’m currently working from home most days so you’re dog will not be alone. Weekends are preferred as I’m usually home most of the time. My yard is semi-fenced and is open to any dog that is boundary trained; a tie out is available for any dog that is not. I live on the end of a dead end street, so not much traffic near the house. Daily walks will happen (weather permitting). I also have an X-Large crate available for use, or you can bring your own. If your dog has attitude that’s also ok; I have the space to keep our dogs separated if needed. :)

Deirdre was a great help! We were worried leaving our older dog because he's always come with us in the summer. But Deirdre put our fears to rest by lovingly taking care of both dogs. Highly recommend her! (Unless you are going somewhere the same time as I am! We will def hire her again!)

First of all, I appreciated Deidre's quick response. We were able to work out our first meeting within half an hour of me requesting her. It was clear at the meet and greet that Deidre was the right sitter for our 9 year old rescue, Shelby. Shelby has always had a fear of people and anxiety about being left at home. But the barking stopped the minute Deidre came into our home and Shelby actually sat with Deidre and allowed her to pet her. That says a LOT to me because I always trust our dog's instincts. She trusted Deidre, and that allowed us to relax on our vacation, knowing she was in good hands. Deidre also asked questions that we hadn't even thought about, which let us know she knew what she was doing. We'll definitely be using her again!

Deirdre did a wonderful job taking care of both our Havanese 8 year old & 1 year old for the whole 10 days we were gone. It was esp important for my daughter to see pics of the puppy so we could enjoy our vacation without worry & Deirdre put all her worries at ease. Both dogs loved Deirdre as was evident when we came home & she came over. They were thrilled we were home but loved that she visited as well! We highly recommend Deirdre for drop in dog (& puppy) watching!!

Please let me know if your dog is friendly or dog aggressive. My neighbors have a small pug and a beagle that love to come over to my yard and hang out sometimes. Seniors are most welcome. There are no kids here, so they can have relaxing peace. Pit bulls are ALWAYS welcome.
