Pups to Grumpy Paws

I have over 30-years of insight, wisdom, experience, and growing with the trends of taking care of dogs. I work jus a few minutes away from our home Monday through Friday where I come home for an hour to walk my fur babies and / or any adoptive fur babies visiting us on their B & B. I have a 8-month puppy, and my Max whom was the senior dog of 13-1/2 years old just recently passed away from old age. My Westie, who was the senior dog, had some special needs due to his age. I am very used to giving dogs meds daily, special diets and keeping them away from other dogs who don’t need to have special diet arrangements, and just taking care of them in a more special way of lifting them, moving them and giving them that extra comfort they need as they are an older senior. I am very familiar with puppy training and stimulation on what new little fur babies need for stimulation and growth that is vital in their early development stages. We have a huge fenced in backyard that is absolutely huge where they can play in and roam freely. We, also, have a walking trail that runs the back of our home, and I take my dogs on a daily trail trip, as well. If your dog needs to be on a schedule, I am more than happy to accommodate that, however, if you want to just find a place where they can just be loved and watched over, and let them play with others for social skills, this is the home for them. My family laughs at me that I treat my fur babies and give them more attention than my own kids. Love all dogs, and will give them all the love, attention, and play time they need. I’m ready to adopt your fur baby as my own fur baby so you can feel relaxed and comfortable knowing they are being taken care as if you were here while you’re away on vacation or dealing with a sudden family emergency.

Ginger was wonderful with my dog!! So attentive to my needs and his. Communication was exceptional and prompt the whole time she had the dog. Great fenced yard for running and playing. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.

We were so pleased with Ginger’s care for Lexi! She kept us constantly updated on Lexi’s well-being with pictures and messages, which gave us such peace of mind. Lexi was happy and relaxed, getting to enjoy all her favorite activities. It was clear Ginger made Lexi's time special, and Lexi even bonded with Ginger’s sweet Yorkie, Bella. We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and loving sitter. Highly recommend!

Ginger took care of Ukiyo and Poppy for a week, while we went on vacation. This was our first time leaving them with anyone other than our daughter. In fact, our pups have had little to no interaction with other people, much less at someone else's home. I work from home and we don't get out with them very much, their outings consist of our back yard and occasional walks. Needless to say, we were very apprehensive about leaving them. Ginger took excellent care of our babies. She was patient, kind, and attentive. It was obvious to us that they had been well cared for, as she made sure to listen to me when we dropped them off about their schedules, likes and dislikes, etc. She also sent us daily updates and pics and videos, which put our mind at ease. When we picked them up, we could tell they were relaxed, clean, healthy and happy. We are so lucky to have found Ginger and will definitely be calling on her for our next trip!! Thank you Ginger!

She was amazing with our boy! He was very nervous at first but she made him feel welcome and safe. I loved getting pictures and a daily summary from her. She went above and beyond to make his stay enjoyable.

Schedule

I am currently working away from home, but come home over the lunch hour to walk our fur babies. I cam home at least an hour during the mid day and never leave them more than 4/hrs unattended. I am able to take care of a puppy and keep training them on how to be housebroken and the vital stimulation they need in their early stages of development. I am very familiar with a senior dog who needs some additional love, medication, and additional attention and / or support, and care during their senior journey. If you need someone during the week, for a week or two, or on the weekends, I can definitely accommodate your needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a huge fenced in yard that they can roam freely with my fur babies that they can play and / or relax and enjoy the sun, birds, natural beauty that will surround them. Also, I have more than enough room inside and outside if your dog needs to be crated. I am familiar with both, and can accommodate your needs. Lastly, I have tile flooring throughout our home in case you have a puppy or a senior dog, no need to worry about that.

Pets

A typical day

I would love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We'll play a bunch of games in our backyard, and/ or check out all the new smells in my neighborhood while we explore a nice park trail behind our home. We have several times a day that we just hang out on the couch to get cuddles, head, back, and belly rubs or just that quiet serenity and security that our pups are looking for.
