Pet care experience

Hello, I'm Fina and we are The Haworths! My husband, Nathan, and I have 2 kids (Eli, 12and Isabel, 8), 1 cat (Lynxsy), and 1 dog (Caio). We are full time homeschoolers in the Heights and are able to give your fur children immeasurable love while you are away! I have had 2 of my own businesses; neither of those came close to providing me with the amount of joy I get from being around animals! Nathan has been working in theatre for the past 20+ years, and has cared for dogs and cats for longer. Over the years, we have had experience with large and small dogs; the breeds I have owned and cared for include: Border Collies, Pugs, Terriers, Australian Shepherds, Papillion, Flat Coated Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, and Pitbulls. With that said, I am comfortable and love all breeds. We also love our cats over here, so they are just as welcome! A bit about our home- I have a separate living space on my property so if there is too much stimulation in the main house, I stay in that area with them. While we have 2 large fenced in yards, we also go on many walks around the neighborhood and spend ample time just handing around outside. We look forward to meeting you and caring for your babies! We will take care of them like our own and they will have tons of fun with our fur kids and real kids alike. I also love taking photos so you won't go a day without beautiful photos of your pets! If you'd like to see more, check out @pethaus_of_haworth on Instagram! **Please note, for first time bookings, I require advance notice to allow for a meet and greet, and possibly a day care day or one overnight stay prior to visits longer than 7 days.

Fina is the best! She treats the dogs she takes care of like her own. She sends pictures and has daily videos on her IG page. Can’t recommend her highly enough!

Fina and her family took great care of Goose. Fina kept me updated at least daily. Goose will be staying with Fina again!!

I get so much peace of mind that when we travel our Golden Retriever Tucker gets to stay with Fina and her family. Fina has a friendly dog, a secure yard and gentle, responsible kids and Tucker gets to join their pack and be apart of the fun. He doesn't like to be alone so boarding at a kennel or in-our-home visits would be so stressful and sad for him. When we came to pick Tucker up after our vacation he was happy to see us, but not desperately happy, since he'd been so well-loved and cuddled all week! Fina sent tons of pictures and videos of our happy safe pup to make us smile and reassure us.

Information Fina R. would like to know about your pet

What is your dog's energy level? How are they on a leash? Do they have any triggers on walks? (ie: Squirrels, lawn mowers, etc) Are they comfortable with cats and other dogs? Are they comfortable with children? Have they ever escaped from you? If so, what worked to get them back? Do they have separation anxiety? What commands do they know?

A typical day

We love walks around the neighborhood, often to 19th street, tug and fetch, dog parks if approved, walk on trails. We play around in the back and front yard and have tons of cuddle and nap time.
