Available all day, fenced in yard!

Pet care experience

I live in a house with a fenced in yard with my two Shiba Inus. One is 10 and one is 4. I think they would love to have some company and my yard is a pretty good size so they would have fun running around together. I work from home so my schedule is wide open! I am here day and night and available most weekends. IMPORTANT: Right now I’m only available for babysitting/boarding at my own house, I won’t be able to come to yours. I would like you to meet me here ahead of time to make sure our dogs get along, but after that we’re good to go! If your dog does not get along with others, it unfortunately will not be a good fit. I also am renting so I ask that your dog be potty trained and non-destructive. I have been a huge dog lover my whole life and am so excited to put that to a good use. Whether your dog needs to play, to take it easy, to take their medication - you can count on me. I can never have too many dogs in my life, so I would love so much for you to consider me! I'm so excited to meet you and your dog!

Holly did a great job with my Bo. We have to work long hours and she was super quick to get back to us and a great communicator. We look forward to working with her in the future!

Holly did a great job caring for my beloved 10 year old dog, and my house while I had to be out of town for work for two weeks. She communicated well with me during her stay and was very responsible. It was such a relief to come home to a happy dog and a clean house! I will definitely use Holly again in the future!

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I am well aware that sometimes dogs don’t get along for whatever reason. My dogs are friendly, but I will be constantly paying attention to body language and if it seems like it’s needed, they will be separated just in case. I also like to send pictures while your dog is at my house as I know that goes a long way to put you at ease!

Information Holly M. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed restrictions, but I will say that I will not accept any dogs that have had any aggression issues. Please be mindful of this. Other than that, I would like to know about: - Any allergies - Medications that need to be taken - Whether your dog is friendly with other dogs - Any quirks or specific preferences your dog has, to ensure he or she has the best time possible with me

A typical day

Your dog will be in a calm and safe environment, it’s pretty quiet here as it’s just me and my boyfriend. We will have fun playing in the fenced in yard, or we can go for a walk around the neighborhood if you’re comfortable with that.
