Highlights
Pet care experience
Lover of fluffballs and all doggos
I have always found myself surrounded with dogs of one kind or another and have loved each and every one from my own dear family dog, who we lost last year, or the puppy that I visit twice a week for family friends. I think that dogs, like people, have their own personalities and traits that make them unique and lovable in their own ways. You can get a doggo who is docile and sweet and only wants cuddles or you can have that crazy little thing that runs around like there is no tomorrow. I love to discover these quirks and tendencies of these four legged buddies and then develop a bond with them. I believe it is important to make a meaningful connection with your charges and from there you can really build a lasting relationship with the dogs.

Ratings and reviews
Gwen was super easy to work with and obviously cares a lot about the wellbeing of the dogs in her care!
Stella loved playing with Gwen all weekend!
Gwen was an amazing sitter for our pups! She went above and beyond--bathing them and even taking the initiative to take our trash out when she totally didn't have to! Just the best! Definitely our go to next time we're out of town :)
Gwen has watched and walked both my dogs several times. I have a goldendoodle and a bichon frise and they both love her. She can be your very own dog nanny too!
Gwen is always excellent with my little girl, Molly. She's very attententive to whatever needs Molly may have, and has thusly forged a bond with my fur beast. Now, my dog looks forward to her walks with Gwen.

Schedule
Every day is a little bit different but what is always the same is the level of care provided for your pet. The basics of breakfast, dinner, and pottying are all covered but I like to throw in some extra enrichment and fun so maybe your pet will get a trip to a coffee shop or the dog beach or maybe a pet friendly store. It really depends on what your pet might want on a particular day. Whatever it is, you’ll get tons of pictures and the occasional arts and crafts because it brings me joy 🤩
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
At my home, I have a large backyard that is fully fenced and the dogs get full range. The only portion they’re not invited into is my garden. I like to be the only one who does the watering there. Inside the pups get to hang out where they choose and if your dog needs a little quite space, I have a couple crates or baby gates that will help with that. Safety is the biggest priority though and cameras are in every room because I cannot be. I do my best to match dogs to other dogs they’re going to have a nice time with and also keep separate the ones that would prefer to have a closer knit circle of friends. Every animal is unique and I’d like them all to have an enjoyable time while they’re under my care
Pets
A typical day
Since we live so close to the lake and so many great parks, I always try to get those four-legged friends outside and moving. They should be able to see all of the great sights Cleveland and her suburbs have to offer.

- I’d love to know any details you’d like to share as an owner. Every single pet is a different animal and some things might not be okay with your pet that might be okay with another. Does you pet get scared of loud noises or random trash blowing in the wind? Maybe they go crazy for a squirrel. Perhaps they’re allergic to every protein except chicken and lamb. Please let me know that way I can give your animals the best care possible.
