How I Care for Pets in my Home -I create a safe, pet-friendly space with plenty of room for play, rest and comfort. -Pets are welcomed as part of the family: allowed on furniture, (if you allow) and always supervised. -I keep a routine with feedings, walks, playtime, and potty breaks to help pets feel at ease. -I provide enrichment like toys, and outdoor time (if safe/fenced) to keep them happy and stimulated. -For overnight stays, i make sure pets have cozy sleeping spots and maintain their usual schedule. How I Care for Pets in your Home -I follow your instructions carefully so your pets routine stays consistent and stress free. -I respect your home, keeping it clean and secure while I care for your pets. -I provide daily walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of love and attention. -I send regular photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing. -I can also handle small extras, like bringing in mail, watering plants, or checking lights if you'd like.

Overnight Schedule Your pet will be treated like part of our family from the moment they arrive. Morning We start the day with breakfast (following your pet's normal feeding schedule), followed by a bathroom walk and a morning exercise walk to help them burn off energy and start the day feeling happy and relaxed. During our walks, I always bring fresh water and a small amount of your pet's own kibble to use as training rewards. Using their regular food instead of treats helps avoid upsetting sensitive stomachs while reinforcing good behavior. Positive reinforcement also helps pets feel more confident and comfortable in their temporary home. During the Day After our morning routine, we return home where I work remotely. Your pet is never without companionship. While I'm working, my husband/partner spends time playing with, relaxing with, and giving your pet plenty of attention. Fresh water is always available, and throughout the day your pet will enjoy several short bathroom breaks and opportunities to stretch their legs. Evening Adventures After work, it's time for one of our favorite parts of the day—a longer bonding walk along one of the beautiful bike paths and trails throughout Folsom. We bring fresh water and your pet's kibble for continued positive reinforcement during the walk. These outings provide excellent physical exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of opportunities for sniffing and exploring. When we return home, everyone settles in for dinner, relaxation, and plenty of affection. Whether your dog enjoys cuddling on the couch, playing with toys, or simply relaxing nearby, we love giving them the attention and love they deserve. Bedtime When it's time to turn in for the night, we want your pet to be as comfortable as possible. They're welcome to sleep: * In bed with us (if that's what they're accustomed to) * In their own bed * In their crate We'll follow whatever sleeping arrangement they're most comfortable with and what you prefer as their owner. Our goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away, so they can enjoy their vacation just as much as you enjoy yours. --- Pet Sitting Schedule Our pet sitting routine follows the same level of care and attention as our boarding schedule. The primary difference is that the schedule is based on the **drop-off and pickup times** you select. Whether your pet is staying for one night or an extended visit, we'll adapt our routine around your arrival time while ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, fresh water, enrichment, positive reinforcement, affection, and companionship throughout their stay. From the moment your pet arrives, they become part of our daily routine and receive the same love, structure, and individualized care that every guest enjoys. We strive to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home until it's time to reunite with you.
