When caring for your beloved pets, it's essential for me to understand their unique needs and preferences to ensure their comfort and well-being. Here’s what I’d like to know ahead of time: Health and Medical Needs: Medications: Does your pet require any medications? Please provide detailed instructions on dosage and administration times. Allergies: Does your pet have any known food, environmental, or material allergies? Dietary Restrictions: Are there specific foods or treats your pet should avoid? Behavior and Temperament: Socialization: How does your pet interact with other animals and people, including children? Triggers: Are there specific situations, objects, or noises that cause fear or anxiety in your pet? Aggression: Has your pet ever shown signs of aggression, such as growling or biting? Daily Routine: Feeding Schedule: What are your pet’s typical feeding times and portion sizes? Exercise Needs: How much physical activity does your pet require daily, and what types of activities do they enjoy? Sleep Habits: Where does your pet usually sleep, and do they have a preferred bedtime routine? Training and Commands: Obedience: What commands does your pet know, and how reliably do they respond? House Training: Is your pet fully house-trained, or are there specific cues they use to indicate they need to go outside? Emergency Information: Veterinarian Contact: Please provide your vet’s contact details in case of emergencies. Emergency Contacts: Is there someone else I should reach out to if you're unavailable? Gathering this information ensures that I can provide the best possible care tailored to your pet's individual needs. Feel free to share any additional details that will help make your pet’s experience comfortable and enjoyable!

A Typical Day with Me A typical day with me is filled with care, attention, and lots of fun! Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or an extended stay, I make sure each pet feels loved, safe, and engaged—and in our home, that means extra love from my animal-loving kids, too! For Dogs: We start with a potty break and a refreshing walk or some backyard playtime. My kids adore dogs and love to play fetch, run around, or give belly rubs. If your dog enjoys mental stimulation, I also use treat puzzles, basic training reinforcement, or nose work games to keep them engaged and happy! For Cats: My kids have been raised to be gentle and respectful with animals, so whether your cat is social or prefers quiet companionship, they’ll get the care they need! If they love playtime, we’ll use feather wands, laser pointers, and interactive toys to keep them entertained. If they prefer snuggles, there will be plenty of cozy lap time available! For Senior or Special-Needs Pets: I have extensive experience caring for pets that require medications, injections, or extra attention. My home is calm and loving, and my kids understand how to be gentle and patient with older pets who need a little extra care. Lots of Love & Companionship: I will be the sole caretaker for all pets during bookings. My children love animals and enjoy spending time with them, but I personally handle all pet care, including feeding, walking, and supervision. Pets in my home should be comfortable around children, since they will receive plenty of affection in a safe, supervised environment. Whether your pet wants active fun or quiet companionship, they will feel right at home with us! I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel secure, happy, and loved while you’re away! Whether it’s a quick visit or an overnight stay, your furry friend will be in caring hands!
