Pet care experience

Hello let me introduce us to you. Gabriella and Aimee dynamo duo team approach to all your Pet Care Needs. Both of us have a genuine passion for animals of all kinds and feel extremely blessed that we have this opportunity to work full time with them. I have had pets my whole life as well as worked in a rescue farm in Sicily Italy. I learned so much more then ever could imagine working with rescued animals has actually rescued me from my own heartache. Animals show true meaning of the word Love. So having that experience has really sculpted me to be a better everything. Animals are people just as we they all have a story. My favorite part is finding out more about that while we work together. Gabriella who we call Olimpia her middle name has known a life only around animals. Let us share our passion for animals and allow us to take care of them in the way you yourselves would. Something even better. My life revolves around the animals they are our priority from moment we get them and way after service completed. Thanks for looking at us hope to be considered. Let me give you a brief overview of how the service is done at our home. My Mom Aimee and I Gabriella Olimpia I go by Old run a very tight ship and are 100% in this for the animals. My mom has worked at numerous shelters for over 25 years with almost every animal. She and I both are capable handling medication, training and overall great Pet Services. I want to explain what happens so you will have a great idea of exactly what the stay will be like. First let me say that your babies will be so loved never alone and in great company. We do have a dog his name is Bailey he is a Maltese and Havenese he is a rescue that. I have worked on for almost two year-end has become an amazing addition to our team. We have no issues he loves to share his home and his mommy. He is laid back however we do a lot of activity. I am very active and if the pets are able to keep up I take them at their pace and work around there comfort. So we do meet and greet if possible but. they are not mandatory, however as pet owner myself I feel they are very informative for myself and more so for the pet owner. I am proud to say that every animal all demeanors and every personality given to us so far I am successful at giving them a stay that you will never get anywhere else. So First the dogs are never alone at my house and if myself or Oil must leave for a emergency I have camera set so supervision is done remotely. We have a 3 story single home with beautiful yard. Parts fenced and some not. We do use a lead if not in fenced area. AC throughout the whole home. We have a beautiful yard and lots land. . I bring water out with us and always check to make sure that no one is too hot. We take trips to the local Park where we walk the track, run as well as play in a fully enclosed fenced in field. Take day trips to Valley Forge and to the lovely Bike trails here in Conshohocken. Also bring the animals down to the River they have it set up with park benches as well as have a dock where we just go and chill by the water. Walks are every 2 -4 hours and are at least 15 min long 2 blocks around my neighborhood. We feed all animals separate so there is no issues with food aggression. Water bowls are. Conveniently placed all over the home Animals have full reign of the house including our bed unless told other wise. I ask that you please specify any rules you have so that we can keep it consistent to what you do at home. What to expect at drop off: One of us will be home Swamp Pike. You can pull in our driveway to make this easy as possible. we ask that all animals arrive on a leash and bags prepared so that we can do the exchange as smoothly as possible. Its better for your pets that they don't understand that you are leaving so what I do is drop all belongings outside the home and will take your pets on a walk, we will hang out until I feel that we have a bond or at least a connection so when we do go inside they are calm and transitioning goes much easier. I am glad to provide photos but its not suitable for my circumstances nor how I like to introduce Bailey to any other animals. I will send photos, updates and any information that I feel owner needs to know on a daily basis. Some. days you will get it all at once and others during the day it all depends on time. I ask that owners be as honest as possible about the animals traits and behaviors because it will be revealed in time and we can be better prepared if we know what to expect. Its a smooth operation if we follow the routine we have used for many clients. Packing for boarding: Pets food enough for the time you have booked. Any unused will be sent home with your pet upon departure. We ask that you use plastic containers that are disposable for any items sending here. Please do not bring bowls we have plenty.. A toy, dog bed, treats and if you use a crate we ask you bring it. We will also request that you send a dog brush so that we can brush in case of ticks and. fleas after all walks. Anything extra like medication or items that are specific to your pet please make sure they are in a safe bag so that no one eats it. Label your belongings please it can get tricky if they are not. Thats about it for what to bring here. If your animals have triggers such as thunder storms and or fire works any thing that will spook them we prefer to know prior to being dropped off. In the case of emergency we ask that you add the cell number we will give you to your address book on cell phone if we call its due to emergency and we do not want to waste any time. If your dog needs medication administered please have the instructions clearly marked so we can give on time. If your pet needs peanut butter or cream cheese please supply it. Updates Sent throughout the stay with photos and video We have a great time here and although at times we have more then one animals and also have animals from multiple families we separate any animals that has social issues however they are not left out. Individual time will be provided for every animal so they will get attention as well as everyone gets a turn to be the star. Services are 5 star by far and we strive very hard to keep up those standards so please feel free to give us your honest feedback. If we can improve our services by hearing your suggestions it is a win win for all of us. We really look forward to meeting with you as well as caring for all your pets needs. Thanks so much,

Amazing service Oscar doesn’t like the idea of us leaving him behind with a sitter but this time it was different he went with the flow and had better time there then we ever gave. He was so happy all the pics that Gabriella sent with updates about Oscar all week made me so happy. He was in the very best care and will send him every time we need some help. Thanks Gabriella

Easy to communicate with, very flexible, obvious animal lovers, and treated my dog like part of their family! Will for sure book with them again.

I would highly recommend Aimee. She was very aware and sensitive to the needs of our new rescue dog, Bonnie. We had a meet/greet prior to Bonnie's stay. Aimee was great. She listened and we discussed Bonnie's special needs and Bonnie explained how she would address her needs. Ie./ Bonnie's nervousness in cars and during walks. We were given update on how Bonnie was doing each day and we felt confident that she was in good hands. Bonnie loved her and Aimee's dog, Bailey. Bonnie gained confidence, had regular exercise/walks, and even managed to put on a little weight which she needed to do. Aimee was wonderful and provided Bonnie with special love and TLC. What more can any pet owner ask for? Thank you for all you did! Ellie B.

It is very important for us to keep your regimen as close to your schedule. How many times do you feed your pup. Any allergies? Any triggers that we need to be aware of. Does your pet get along well with other animals? How can I get in touch with you in case of emergencies. Favorite toys, favorite thing to do? Does your pet have any special needs?

Our home is a lovely single family home in a perfect location for all to just sit and enjoy. My house is 2550 square feet with a beautiful yard 9500 square foot. It’s very peaceful and dogs love to explore my grounds. Rocks all around setting up a shaded area as well as a jungle gym toy they love to play and climb. Fenced in yard farther back beyond rocks very open yet secure for excercise. Have beautiful decks and covered patio for shade and also to help in bad weather.
