Reliable, Trustworthy Pet Companion

Pet care experience

I offer over 20 years experience taking care of dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, hamsters and guinea pigs in a loving and safe environment. I am a reliable and honest pet care giver who enjoys taking care of animals of all sizes and breeds. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate to your and your pet needs quite easily. I work from home so I can walk dogs in my care very often during the day as I need many breaks myself. Pets must be house trained and current with their vaccines. House trained means your pet relies on you to go outside to do its business. Boarding: 24hrs - Drop-in time is usually your pick-up time. Up to 2 dogs of the same family but typically, only one dog at the time. This allows me to fully take care of your dog and treat him with the same loving, attentive, attuned care I would provide mine. Vet contact required

I have left my dog with Fran more than. Consistently outstanding experience. Reliable, trustworthy, dependable, and knowledgeable with dogs. Bella loves being with Fran! I can tell she had a really good time and was well cared for. Fran is a rare find. Highly recommend her.

I felt very comfortable leaving my pup Lady in Francoise's care. She is attentive and pays close attention to directions and safety. I could tell Lady got a lot of love from the many photos and updates while I was away. I definitely feel great about having Francoise watch Lady again when I'm away. Thank you!

Francoise was the PERFECT sitter for my dog, Jaime! Everything went very smoothly, from beginning to end. I appreciated her time for a meet and greet to ensure they were a good fit. She communicated very well and sent photos every day. I had no concerns at all because I can tell he was having a lot of fun. At pick up, I can tell Jaime had grown to really love her because he kept looking back for her! I hope to rebook Francoise again in the future. Thank you again, Francoise!

Francoise took great care of our boy, even under the difficult conditions around 4th of July. She even went the extra mile to drive him out to the beach to make sure our boy got the exercise and outdoor time he needed when he didn’t find the surrounding area comforting due to noise. She’s very accommodating and sends great updates and we’d love to book her again.

Information Francoise C. would like to know about your pet

I want to know everything about your pet! - How do they walk? - How they like to play? - When do they like to eat and their favorite food? - Are they allowed treats? - How do they like to sleep? - How they behave with other pets, people, children? - What triggers a possible negative behavior? - What would make their stay feel like they never left your home?

A typical day

Depending on the breed, age, health....your pet will be walked up to 6 times a day. Play will be offered inside the home and outside in the garden. During weekends, longer excursions are planned to the beach or easy safe trails or parks. Typically, your pet will come along and share my activities and join me at any place that welcomes dogs.
