Pet care experience

One-to-one care

In my home, I adhere to a one-dog-at-a-time policy, ensuring that your furry friend receives undivided attention and care. Alongside my own friendly corgi, your dog will be welcomed into a warm and inviting environment where they'll feel right at home. When your pup stays with me, they become an integral part of our family. With my extensive experience growing up with both cats and dogs, along with my background as a former veterinary technician, your furry friend will be in capable and loving hands. I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your pet behind, even for a vacation, but rest assured, your pup will receive top-notch care in my home. From administering medication to providing nail trims, I'm equipped to handle any special needs your dog may have. My home offers a tranquil atmosphere with a fenced yard and the option for a crate in the living room to ensure your pup is never lonely. Additionally, my hybrid work-from-home setup allows me to be available whenever your pet needs attention. Plus, I'm fully insured for added peace of mind. Your beloved companion will be treated like one of my own, receiving the care, comfort, and affection they deserve during their stay with me.

I work from home in a hybrid capacity. Most pups enjoy lounging in the sun while I work which is usually pretty boring to them.

I have doggie treat puzzles, lots of balls for fetch and walks are good long ones. If your pup enjoys a good brushing, I am up for that as well.
