I do work in the office but am able to come home on lunch for an hour to walk & play. I only care for one pet family at a time so don’t worry about anxious dogs mixing. All my day care & boarding services include walks - no extra cost! Growing up with dogs, I’ve developed an intuitive understanding of their needs. From playful pups to senior dogs, I’ve cared for them all! I have dealt with medication for heart diseases and epilepsy and understand the importance of routine and timing for medication. I grew up with chihuahuas and a shitzu. I understand the need to adapt to different behaviours and anxieties. Most importantly I understand the need for dogs to feel loved and involved whilst their pet parents are away. I understand that communication is key when trusting someone to care for your dog and I will go above and beyond to keep you updated on your dogs day. Trust is the most important thing! I love all different breeds of dogs. I feel like I have a great understanding of their different types of needs depending on breed. I understand toy breeds unique needs, combining vigilance for their safety with a gentle approach to their emotional well-being. I understand that they may not need as much strenuous exercise as larger breeds, but they thrive on companionship and consistent routines, often being content with a short walk and plenty of lap time. Given their small bladders, I understand they may require more frequent potty breaks than larger dogs. I am extra cautious during walks, using appropriate safety equipment like a secure harness to prevent accidents, and being aware of other, potentially larger, animals that could scare them or put them in danger.
