I have 50 years experience with dogs. I have experience training, grooming, walking and loving dogs. Big one's, little one's, itsy bitsy teensy one's! Cats? I love them! I am the first person my friends call when they need a sitter. Short notice no biggie. I specialize in 30 minute drop-in visits although, 60 minute drop-in visits are available for a little more TLC. I am very dependable and responsible. I do not believe in physical punishment or scare tactics to correct a dogs behaviors and cats are practically purr-fect anyway. Gentleness and kindness ( a little bribing doesn't hurt either). l require to have a meet and greet before any agreements are made between us about sitting. All dogs must be spayed or neutered unless they are pups too young for that. All dog must be current on all shots. Owner must provide collars and leashes or (harnesses preferred) NO CHOKE CHAINS ALLOWED!!! I work midnight shifts This allows me to have time in the afternoons and evenings 4 to 5 days a week That varies And I do not work every other weekend every other Tuesdays every other Friday. I have a large house with a fenced yard a security balcony and two stories of play space and all dogs that I host in my home are allowed in any room in the house during naps and bedtime we all sleep in one big room together separated by gates or barriers if necessary otherwise they pile in with me in the bed I work part time out of the home. I have a lot of freedom and time to spend with your furry babies and so they are rarely alone and I accompany them when outside at all times. I have a safety plan that I have developed over the years that I strictly follow to ensure that every pet that stays in my home is protected from accidents and harm. I provide separate feeding areas to prevent squabbling over food, and I provide separate sleeping arrangements for my rover dogs where they have their own beds and blankets for them to be safe and comfortable. I provide segregated safe zones and private quarters for pups that need some extra space to feel safe and comfortable Or for nervous and timid dogs that need to adjust to the house for a bit before they come join the others. For your convenience and Upon request, I can provide food and water bowls and 2 feedings a day for my boarding pups. NOTE: I only feed SCIENCE DIET ADULT COMPLETE DRY DOG FOOD. I give only HIGH QUALITY TREATS which I also provide. Please request this additional service at the Meet and Greet appointment prior to the booking drop off day. Clients have found that they are less anxious and stressed when they don’t have to pack up bowls and food and all their dogs stuff. Beds and blankets from home are best for your dogs boarding experience because they need familiar things that have your and their scent for comfort
