Information Derek & Solip "Stella" T. would like to know about your pet

Please share your dog's daily routine, including their potty and feeding schedule, and any special needs like medications or specific fears (like loud noises). Let me know about their sociability with other dogs, favorite comfort spots, and any triggers or anxious behaviors they might have. Details about allergies, leash preferences, and anything else you think is important are also welcome!

A typical day

Prime location for play: Situated just a minute from Marina Green and Crissy Field, our clients' dogs are always a short walk away from a splendid dog playground. Fresh air and ample opportunities for play are guaranteed! Outdoor fun, indoor love: Our home is a cozy haven where we cherish every moment with our furry guests. Whether it's sunny or cloudy, we have plenty of space for playtime. We'll enjoy games, explore new scents around our neighborhood, and visit the nearby park for some exciting outdoor activities. Your dog will have a great time, getting both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Meet Lucy, your dog's new best friend: Lucy, our 2.5-year-old Jack-Rat Terrier rescue, is pure joy. Whether our client's dog is older or has special health needs, Lucy's gentle side will be there for them. With her around, our client's dog is sure to find a friendly playmate.

Derek and Solip were incredible with Penelope! They were both so caring and communicative, and flexible when my flight home was delayed. I felt very comfortable knowing my sweet Penelope was in good hands, and gained a bonus new friend in their cute pup Lucy! Highly recommend them and feel lucky to have found them!
