Highlights
Pet care experience
Must love Dogs
I've been a pet lover since I was a kid. I started with frogs, lizards and snakes, and graduated to cats and dogs. Until I was able to have dogs of my own, I spent over 10 years pet-sitting for friends and family, volunteering in animal shelters, and have even worked in 2 seperate doggy daycares. My MO is always long walks and lots of attention. I have 2 dogs of my own, a cumulative 17 years of pet raising experience. I have experience caring for sick pets and administering medication both orally and subcutaneously. I've had my pups since they were young and would consider them very well trained. If you're looking to work on certain behaviors, I can absolutely work on that during their stay. I have a fenced yard, a safe neighborhood for long walks, and for longer stays, expect your dog to enjoy a nice hike!

Ratings and reviews
Deidre was fantastic! Our dogs had so much fun and came home tired after all their walks! :)
Deidre was so great with our three dogs! She was punctual and attentive to each of their individual and varying needs, from our high energy young pup to our older velcro dog. Our youngest pup had also recently had surgery, and Deidre was careful and considerate of her recovery needs as well. It was so nice to see her photos and updates afterwards of how much our girls enjoyed the drop in visit!
Deirdre was great with my energetic 8 month old shepherd mix! She took the time to do a slow meet and greet between my pup and her two (they were fantastic and so well trained), and kept me updated throughout. My pup is tired out and happy from her big day at Deirdre’s, I’d highly recommend her.
She's great with all of our pets! Very reliable too.
Deidre took such good care of my dog while I was on a long trip. She sent pictures and updates, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation. I'm so grateful for her kindness and care. She is highly recommended.
She's very nice, dependable and flexible. Our dogs and cats love her. We will be asking her for more dates to check on our dogs again. We were very happy with her service! Thanks Deirdra! 😊

Schedule
I mostly work from home, so for daycare your dog(s) would never be alone and would have access to my fully fenced backyard whenever they want. During the week, I can do a long walk during my lunch break, and another after work. Weekends I tend to go hiking, so if your pup enjoys nature, they will for sure have a great time. Due to my variable work schedule, I cannot accommodate recurring appointments.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My yard is fully fenced, and I have 2 friendly dogs. Safety is paramount, so dogs would be supervised while in the yard together. If your dog requires a crate, I have both a plastic and soft sided kennel for indoors.
Pets
A typical day
I have a decent sized yard to run and play in. I typically do an hour walk around my neighborhood which has 2 different parks amd some woods nearby. If you're comfortable with short car rides, on weekends, I typically do a longer hike, or we'll go to the beach (or the lake in the summer). It's always a fun time.
