I need to know if your dog has any medical needs. I like to know if your dog is reactive around other dogs or any idiosyncrasies that would help me to give your dog the best care while here. I also appreciate owners that give me written instructions on care and dietary needs especially if the dog has special needs, medicines, or a special diet. I want to know about dog's limitations ( cannot do steps independently, has vision or hearing problems, etc). Please include your vet info and if you have a support nearby. Please let me know if your dog has allergies. Since many dogs are on special diets, please also bring treats if they cannot have generic treats. Many dogs have a bed that they like to sleep in. Feel free to bring it. Your dog doesn't feel comfortable with men or does better with one carer, that's ok. I can sit for your dog in your house. Also senior dogs particularly with physical limitations might feel comfortable in their home and I will come to you.

We will get up and go outside. Then we will have breakfast. We will have cuddles all day and take your dog for however many walks he/she needs. Does your dog like fetch, great! I am an experienced ball thrower. Dinner, another walk. Bedtime - your dog can sleep anywhere. A dog bed is preferred if your dog uses one. You can bring your crate but only if that is what your dog prefers.
