Pet care experience

Welcome to Pawz 🐾 4 a day!

Looking for a cozy, home-like environment for your dog, whether it’s for the day or an extended stay? Look no further! I’ve been a lifelong pet lover, having cared for both dogs and cats. I’m also a proud volunteer with Home at Last Dog Rescue. My dachshund-beagle mix, Dixie, joined our family in 2020, and my beagle, Emily, was my very first foster fail! Our dogs love camping and exploring the great outdoors with us. Your dog will feel right at home in my fenced yard, a safe and fun space for running and playing. My senior pups will love having the extra company! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend!

Denyse was amazing with my 2 pups. She really took the time to get to know their temperaments and preferences and adjusted for them. My rescue usually comes home she'll shocked when I've boarded them but she looks relaxed and ready to settle back in after being with Denyse for 3 nights!

Denys is so attentive with our mini dachshund. We had a travel delay and she was so accommodating for us. A real pleasure.

Denyse is the best and very flexible. I know you my girls are in good hands and can relax while away.

Denyse is a Godsend. I can’t put into words how good she is. She cared for my two dogs like her own for over a week. She is so educated on dog behavior and seamlessly transitioned our dogs to her home (even my one who struggles with new dogs). She kept us updated the whole stay and made us so comfortable with knowing they were in the BEST care. Book her ASAP!

Denyse was fantastic. Walks, outside time with her other doggies, and a super comfy doggie home, Pebbles felt like she was on a getaway weekend with her friends. We hate leaving Pebbles when we have to go away, but we feel so comfortable leaving Pebbles with Denyse.

Schedule

My home is perfect for extended stays! I’ll keep your pet on a consistent schedule to maintain their familiar routine. While I work in the office three days a week, your pet will be safe and comfortable, either relaxing in a crate or spending time with my dogs in a designated area of the house.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who will enjoy keeping your dog company. If you’re comfortable with crate training, your dog can use a crate for quiet time when needed. On the days I work from home, my dogs stay with me in the same room, and I make sure they get plenty of exercise with daily walks or zooming around the backyard. I also have a cat who tends to keep a low profile around new furry friends. However, if your dog enjoys chasing cats, my home may not be the best fit.

Pets

A typical day

Your dog will love spending time in nature, whether it’s taking walks around the neighborhood or relaxing in the backyard and soaking up all the new smells. For those who prefer quiet time indoors, there are plenty of cozy dog beds to snuggle on and a variety of toys to keep them entertained!

Let me know your dog’s preferences so I can be fully prepared to meet their needs. I have the most experience with smaller to medium sized dogs under 40 pounds, but I’m also happy to care for a lower energy dog if larger in size. After your booking, I’d love to hear your feedback! A testimonial review helps me understand how your dog’s stay went and allows others to learn from your experience. And of course, tips are always appreciated! Thank you!
