Pets are family!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of pets of many kinds for 30+ years…dogs,cats,rabbits,hamsters,geese, chickens, ducks. Neighbors and friends have called on me often when they need help and it’s become commonplace for me to help out (mostly dogs and cats). I had to lay my pug, Sadie, to rest recently (16 1/2 years) and taking care of other peoples pets just seemed like a natural segue. Have lots of experience with senior dogs and I even have a doggie stroller if you have a senior pet but you still want them out and about! Otherwise, love taking them for walks on the beach or around town or just chilling at home , if that’s more their style. Most important, your pets will be SAFE with me and well loved

Denise was wonderful with our kitties! She gave them lots of attention and time, and things were in great condition when we returned. Can't recommend her enough!

Denise was great with our lil Sir Sampson. She was very communicative, professional, kind, patient, caring, and sweet. She sent us a funny picture and let us know he was doing ok mid way through the sitting. :)

I HATE leaving my dogs and rarely leave town becuase of this. The first time I met Denise, she told me about her pug and how much she missed her. She had an easy manner and I knew would be a great fit for Daisey and Luna. During my weeks away from my babies - I received updates and pictures. She made me feel like it was ok to leave and I was relaxed as I knew that they were in good hands. I will absolutely book Denise again to hang out with my puggies!

Information Denise D. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know as much about your furry pet as you can provide. Are they friendly with other dogs? Do they tend to run out the front door when it’s opened? Do they like children? Can they go to the dog park? The more info I have, the better I can serve your pet!

A typical day

Love playing with dogs and cats. Hopefully you will provide their favorite toys. Long walks for young dogs and I even have a dog stroller for the seniors.
