Calming dog Pal
🏳️🌈 Ferndale local with two Malinois/Dutch shepherds I will take care of your pal(s) like they are my very own! Dogs and cats are members of our families and they will get all my attention, patience and calming energy during our time. My work schedule is completely up to me and allows me plenty availability and flexibility for your needs! I'm very easy going and here for you and your dog/cat. I'll make sure they get whatever they need, food, potty break, zommies, pets, cuddles, etc. and will always end my time with your dog on a good note. I have two dogs on my own and are ready for anything your pet might need!

Ratings and reviews
Isabel H. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Isabel has been a wonderful addition to Rosie's new routine. She has been a huge help and Rosie is super excited to have her walk around the neighborhood with great positive reinforcements since she is still in her puppy stage/era. Cannot thank Isabel enough for being so helpful!
Isabel is wonderful! She was so patient with my fearful puppy as he got to know her and has been super accommodating to last minute changes. She goes above and beyond! Highly recommend her!
Isabel was simply fantastic and everything we could ask for! She is friendly and came with treats for our dog which helps with her first interaction. Isabel provided pictures which we really appreciate. Our experience was so positive and professional that we now have her walking Rosie on a weekly rotation to get that great puppy energy burned off. Thank you for your much needed help!!
Isabel was very considerate and even brought enrichment activities for our dogs. She was also very understanding and patient with our reactive dog.

Schedule
I have been an engineer for over twelve years with a passion for dogs the last seven. My schedule and work location has changed and I have a lot more availability during the week. Weekends are available as well depending on the dates. I'm quite flexible for walks, drop-ins, enrichment play times and overnight stays. I can also be available on a very short notice on the same day once we have an established a connection/regular visit.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
If you are looking to board your dog(s) with me it is important that they are very friendly with other dogs, up-to-date vaccines, infectious-disease free and can be crated for short periods to give them some dedicated down time without my dogs in their business. (I do have two crates, one for medium and one for large sized dogs). I have a fenced yard and access to the Ferndale and Royal Oak dog park in case that's something you're interested. Dogs ride in my compact car's back row buckled up or trunk space that is prepared for their comfort and secures them from harmful injuries in case of a car crash. If you are interested in me walking your dog and/or doing drop-ins and your dog has shown aggressive behavior towards new people in the house, I would need to assess first and you'd have to introduce me properly so that the dog feels comfortable letting me inside the house. If I come to your house for pet sitting I will respect your home more than my own and be neat and clean and quiet. I'll try my very best to keep your baby as comfortable, happy and low-stressed as possible and will respect their boundaries. You can either tell me what you want me to exactly do and don't do, or give me space to bring some puzzles and enrichment games and creative ways to feed your doggo(s).
Pets
A typical day
I am here for all kinds of visits and walks. A simple letting out into the backyard, engaging in play, treat games, pets and/or snuggles, whatever your furry best friend wants! I will give them my full attention and sit/play with them on the floor too. I'm right there with them, making sure they're safe. I like to end a drop-in on a calming note with pets and snuggles and/or calming dog music on TV.
