I always do a meet and greet for my first time clients. Normally it's best to meet at feeding walking and /or playing time. We all go together and I observe the activities and ask pertinent questions along the way. Experience has taught me animals, like humans can have different reactions at different times and not always predictable. I like to know about health concerns, temperament, special needs and what they like and don't like. I ask about other dogs in the neighborhood, if we go on walks and take notice if friendly, shy, fearful or overly protective. Do we like to chase squirrels suddenly, cats or birds?? Are we safe on the leash or backyard? Do we like to escape and run away? Past of thunder phobia or fireworks? Veterinary information and emergency contact numbers also are important to have on hand. It's common sense and insight that's all. : ) No breed preferences, but If I sense abuse, neglect or very ill animals that need immediate vet care, I may prefer to decline. It's a case by case scenario. Hope you understand. I have yet to decline anyone so far. Whew! Thank you.

Because your pet is used to your routine, I focus on keeping it inline with the normal day to day activities. No stress here! I always ask pet parents about what special activities they enjoy! Keep it fun!
