Pet care experience

Home full time with a lot of energy

I have a lot of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I was a dog washer for a year and have a love for all animals. I've grown up with all sorts of animals, mostly dogs. My children love animals as well and we will be hands on when caring for anyone's dog. I'm a stay at home mother with lots of energy and time to devote to caring for your dog. I am confident that any dog will be comfortable and happy staying with our family no matter the duration of their stay. I will adhere to every guideline and preference that don't overlap my standards and I'll be flexible to accommodate your dog. I look forward to helping you and your dog.

Kai has a new friend. Please let her out to pee when you arrive as well as before you have for the visit.

Treated Cypress like her own. He enjoyed his time with Dorothy and her children.

Nala has a great time with Dorothy and her kids and we don’t have to worry about her for a second! It is great having such a reliable and trustworthy sitter.

Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.

Dorothy and her family took great care of our very high-energy dog! We didn't have to worry about her at all and she had a great time playing with the kids during her stay.

Dorothy has dropped in to visit my 3 dogs a number of times now, and has been very considerate and caring, even when they’ve been challenging- like when my tiny Sheltie refused to come in the house for her. She stayed and tried many different tactics, and finally was able to get him in. She’s very patient and dedicated to making sure everyone is safe and well-cared for. I’m very thankful to have found her, and highly recommend her!
