My home is calm, pet-loving, and centered around creating a safe, respectful space for all dogs. I share it with my 12-year-old Cocker Spaniel, Gadget, who’s gentle and friendly—but he can be startled by large or overly energetic dogs. He does great with calm dogs and loves a polite sniff-and-greet, but he’s not a fan of dogs that jump or get in his face. Because of that, I prefer to host dogs that are more mellow, understand personal space, and can coexist peacefully with Gadget. He’s nonchalant about barking and doesn’t mind dogs doing their thing—as long as it’s respectful. My household also includes a gated backyard with both grass and bark, giving your pup plenty of space to explore, sniff, and stretch their legs safely. If your dog is kind, calm, and enjoys a quiet household with walks, cuddles, and good company, they’ll feel right at home here.

A typical day with me starts with a peaceful morning walk to get those tails wagging, followed by breakfast and a round of post-meal snuggles. Your pup will get plenty of attention, love, and gentle encouragement throughout the day—whether they’re in the mood to relax or play. In the afternoon, we mix in light indoor play or enrichment games. And if your dog’s feeling extra energetic, we’ll head out for another walk to burn off that excitement. I keep the day balanced with calm downtime, play, and outdoor time tailored to your dog’s energy and comfort level. In the evening, we go for one last walk to wind down the day. After dinner, I help your pup relax with some quiet time and cuddles before settling them into their bed. I always make sure their space is cozy, safe, and familiar—because there’s nothing better than seeing a happy dog stretched out on their back, belly up, dreaming about birds, snacks, and all the fun we had together.
