Safety, trust & environment

Safety: I'm obsessive about the safety of your pet at my home or yours. At mine, everyone must go through one or more doors before they can even get to any door to the outside, allowing me to manage "door-dashers." I live in a quiet, safe, very low-traffic Ward 1 neighborhood on the Lynn/Peabody/Lynnfield line with great neighbors who look out for each other. Environment for boarding: Your dogs will get plenty of love, attention, quality time and frequent trips outside. I don't leave my own dog alone for more than a couple of hours, myself. Speaking of, Maggie is a gentle, well-behaved, well-socialized 28-pound French Brittany mix who gets along with pretty much everyone she meets. She is very good at "reading" our furry guests and matching their energy level. For drop-ins: Your pets will get the same love, attention, and cute pics and updates as my boarders do! I'll follow all of your instructions to the letter, and I'll leave your home just as I found it.

Information Gienna S. would like to know about your pet

Food, bathroom, sleep & medication schedules are most important. Let me know their words and any training you want me to reinforce, as well. All dogs are good dogs. But all dogs have their quirks, too. Please don't hesitate to fill me in. Counter-surfer? I'll make sure to remove any temptations. Exactly three treats before bed? I'm all about keeping up a routine. Absolutely no human food, no matter what, ever? I will follow your rules because *you* know what is best for your dog.

A typical day

During boarding or daycare, your pet will get tons of attention, affection, on-demand potty breaks, and romps in the fenced-in yard. We're in a fairly woodsy area near a pond and other natural spaces, so there are lots of great places to walk and sniff. Don't worry, though: Low-key dogs or couch potatoes will do just fine here, too!

Pet care experience

Full-time pet care + fenced yard + one client at a time = your pet's ideal home away from home!

Experience giving medications & taking care of my own and others' senior and disabled pets, too.

Our cockapoo clearly had a ball - once again - staying with Gienna and her dog Maggie for 10 nights post Christmas. Despite snow and chilly temperatures Gienna gave Millie plenty of outdoor time - and lots of indoor snuggles and attention. Millie's always happy to return to Gienna's house, bounding up the path and rolling over for tummy rubs. Gienna is a Dog Whisperer! Her frequent photos and insightful (often funny) commentary are much appreciated. Millie will be staying again in the very near future.

Our pup had an amazing weekend with Gienna. She has some special medicine needs that we're all taken care of with lots of updates throughout the weekend.
