Dogs are our Business!

Pet care experience

I have been a puppy raiser for Guiding Eyes for the Blind; House/dog sit local residents and their pets on numerous occasions; my husband and I are retired and love to hike and walk the beaches with dogs we keep in both of our Maine and Florida homes; Your pet would be pampered by us, being treated exactly as we treat our own pets, with love and great care - living in our home with us, NEVER outside tied to a dog house. We have experience with subcutaneous-fluid-administration-in-dogs. My husband Ernie also loves pets, has had a few rescue dogs and would care for your pup along with myself. Our dogs have passed away and we prefer now to pet sit rather than own a pet now so they would be extra special for us to care for. PLEASE NOTE: We will take pups under 2 years but they MUST be house trained or crate trained. We cannot take pups in our home that have not been neutered or have separation anxieties - we prefer to sit in your home if this is the case. NOTE: We winter in Venice, Florida and would be happy to have your pup in our place (which is very small) but prefer in yours, as they are so much more comfortable in their own home.

Penelope and her husband were absolutely wonderful with our dogs. We were vacationing in Maine for a month and were looking for someone to watch our dogs while we traveled to Acadia for the weekend. We are so fortunate we found Penelope. They were very accommodating and even gave us a tip on where to get the best pie during our trip and our dogs loved them. I actually think the dogs were a little sad to see us return when we picked them up. They didn't want to leave. If we are ever in the area again and need someone to watch our dogs we will absolutely take them back to Penelope!

Penelope was wonderful. Warm and kind - She sent me pics of Fenway while we were at a nearby beach That did not allow dogs. Would definitely recommend.
