Pet care experience
Hi! I currently have a 9 year old English Cream Retriever and two kittens with my fiancé :) I love going on long walks with dogs as well as getting some energy out playing (fetch, tug-o-war, etc) while you’re away. I used to work at a Humane Society and absolutely adore being around animals! Our dog was my fiancé’s seizure alert service dog so he is very well trained (in case you need to drop a dog off and are worried with another one!) but knows how to have fun when he can! He retired in October ‘24 because retrievers legally do retire at 9 and is now a full time goofy house dog with slightly better training than your average pup. Our kittens are very sweet and adventurous! They all get along. Feel free to message me with any questions!

Reviews
My Golden Retriever had an amazing time at their place. They have a spacious backyard where the dogs can play freely, and my dog especially loved spending time with their own beautiful Golden Retriever. I really appreciated the warm and friendly environment—they treated my dog like family :D
Francesca watched my little puppy Jake for me while I was at work a few times and I've never seen Jake so sad as to when Francesca left to go back to Florida. Jake rarely makes connections with strangers and I was amazed about how quickly him and Francesca connected and it is all to her credit. She is a great person to take care of pups.
I am writing to share my experience with Francesca as my dog sitter. She gave exceptional care to both of my dogs for the full week I had her take care of them. My family and I had to go out of town and I was really comfortable leaving them in her hands. She would send us pictures and any updates every day. She was great with keeping them on schedule and making sure they still go their training. Apart from that Francesca has always been dependable. Since she began sitting for us she has never cancelled and always been punctual. My family and I highly recommend her.

Our dog is not allowed on the couches but he does sleep on the bed with us and he is not crated. We recently bought a two story house and the cats love flying up and down the stairs as well as find spots on all the windowsills. It is very spacious if you prefer an area blocked off for any reason.

Information Francesca S. would like to know about your pet
I will only host dogs that are spayed/neutered with vaccinations up to date. I do have a dog at my house who is very well trained and two cats so they would need to be comfortable with others.
A typical day
I really love taking dogs for long walks as well as playing with them (fetch, tug a war, etc) to use up some energy! Charlotte is very dog friendly as well so I could see us going to a dog friendly area (White Water Center, a dog bar, etc depending on a client’s permission). I love giving cats lots of love and scratchies if they will let me!

Availability
I currently have a hybrid work schedule and work 2 days at home and 3 in the office. My schedule is 7-4 so I can make time really early, during lunch, or after 4! My at home days will have more flexibility if needed.
