Information Gail M. would like to know about your pet

I cannot accept dogs who are not trained to go to the bathroom outside. I have plenty of room for crates if your dog is more comfortable in their own space.

A typical day

We'll play in my yard, go on walks to the local park and through the neighborhood. If you are comfortable with your dog being in my car we may go to the beach or out for a doggy snack.

Lots of love to give your furbabes!

Pet care experience

My big fenced yard is perfect for your furbabies to play in! In 2023 I lost my sweet best friend, Samson. He was almost 12 and had a lot of senior needs - we were together since he was a baby. A friend of mine recommended I try healing through caring for dogs and I have not looked back! Puppy through senior care, I have personal experience and take pride in giving you peace of mind when you leave your furbabies with me. I’ve had predominately large dogs as my own. My dogs have always been true members of the family - they went on vacations, to the beach, to parks. If you’re comfortable with your dogs going on adventures they just might when they’re with me! If you’re not, I will absolutely respect that and we will play in my yard or on neighborhood walks.

Gail was wonderful with our 2 dogs! She gave excellent communication and updates throughout and both dogs had the biggest smiles. We would happily utilize Gail again for boarding.

Gail took on a last minute 3-day weekend task to board our two dogs and did excellent! Our dogs are older and are very set in their home and routine so this was very disruptive for them and they were unexpectedly troublesome, but Gail did great to provide a comfortable and safe environment for them over the weekend, including helping with their disabilities and sending us daily updates with pictures. So we are very grateful for Gail, thank you!!
