Perfect fit for your pups!

Pet care experience

Instead of boarding your dog during your next vacation, or worrying about them being locked in the house along during extended work days, book me to feed, exercise, snuggle and entertain your dog in the environment they're already comfortable with: your home! I'm a fun, engaging pet sitter with many years of experience and a genuine love for animals. I'd love to become a trusted companion for your pet that they look forward to seeing when you find yourself away from home for extended amounts of time. I do have a full time job during the day, but can still be flexible stopping in a couple of times day, and more flexible in the evenings. I'll send detailed updates with photos throughout my time at your home. I also offer baths and blowdrying as often as once a day if they get particularly muddy during our play/walk times outside! At your request, I will gladly spend the night with your "best friend" so they are not alone. I'll happily provide the snuggling they're accustomed to, and accommodate any potty needs that may arise throughout the night. Due to my apartment restrictions, no pets are allowed, but I have the opportunity to love and spoil my parents pups as well as my best friends. I try to keep structure, schedule and obedience a priority. When caring for someone's dog, I make sure to ask how much or little you want your pup to be spoiled with treats and excessive snuggles and how strict you'd like me to be with their crate schedule, eating schedule, and general obedience responses.

Our two dogs ADORE Gwen, and she is one of the few people who we trust to take care of our two pups when we're away. From the moment she steps into our home, their excitement is through the roof and when she sits down they both want to snuggle up as close as they can. There's just something extra-special about her that animals instantly love :) We're so grateful that when we have had her take care of our babies, she's always treated them the same way we would. She always sends lots of pictures, gives them lots of love and makes sure that they receive the care and potty breaks that they need. Book Gwen to take care of your pups! You'll be happy you did :)

I'm looking forward to taking your dog on long on-leash walks through your neighborhood or the local park trails! I'd love to know what your dog's favorite games and toys are so I can entertain them in the ways that they love most.
