Please let me know if your dog(s)/cat(s) have a specific way they like to meet new people before any meet n great or the first service. I have met animals who need people to approach them in specifics ways and even with the owner around for a couple visits just to ensure they like me and don’t see me as a stranger. Even if it’s something you feel may be silly, I would like to know anyway. Cause understanding your pets behavior allows me to be prepared and know the appropriate next steps to take to ensure we establish a good bond. Please let me know if your dog(s)/cat(s) have any special mobility or dietary needs. This includes allergies, specific meal prep, specific brand of food and treats, medications, supplements, diapers, if they aren’t spayed/neutered, any other medical diagnoses(arthritis, disease, conditions). I’ve seen and have had experience with many different diets and conditions, so even if it’s something I’m not familiar with I will do the homework necessary to ensure good quality of care.

I have had a wide range of dogs with very different energy levels. If your dog is more on the mellow or slower side(usually due to age) then I try to get them active for at least 5-10 mins. Whatever gets them stimulated but doesn’t hurt from excessive use of energy. Then I’ll cuddle with them, give them pets and some treats. If your dog is on the higher energy level, then I typically try to go for a 30 min or longer. To let them sniff their surroundings(stimulating their brain) and tire them out a bit. Then once we’re back home I’ll do all the classic dog games of fetch, tug, and maybe practice some tricks. They will also get lots of cuddles, pets, and some treats. Other activities include dog parks, practicing commands, and even just taking them to dutch bros to get a well deserved pup cup. I usually do these during sittings or longer bookings.
