Love for all temperaments & breeds

Pet care experience

For the first time in my entire life, I don't have dogs on my own. Let me take care of your baby and satiate my canine needs at the same time! Since I was 10 years old, I have raised and trained dogs of many breeds. I have spent five years working with a rescue, I've instructed puppy training and adult dog obedience classes, shown dogs at AKC shows, and spent countless hours exploring the wilderness with my own dogs. I have extensive experience with shy, aggressive, and special needs dogs, so if you have a dog who is sometimes difficult in any way, let me know and we can work things out to give your dog a comfortable stay or visit. If your dog is ill or injured, I am able to administer medicine orally and by injection, as well as take proper care of external wounds. I am always flexible, so if you have specific questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Information Isabel S. would like to know about your pet

All breeds are welcome with me! To be the best caretaker for your animal, I would like to be informed of any history of aggression, sources of discomfort, or negative tendencies your dog may have (i.e. doesn't like children, chews things up).

A typical day

I live two blocks from an enormous (2,500 acre) regional park, and chances are if I'm watching your dog, we'll be going on walks or runs there. Another favorite place of mine is Point Isabel Regional Shoreline- there is a giant off-leash dog park (many dogs stay on-leash too) that's a great spot for your dog to make new friends. If your dog likes balls and toys- I know just the spot for a nice uninterrupted game of fetch! If they're more the type to hang out inside on someone's lap all day, that's fine too, and I and my roommates will be thrilled to have someone to cuddle with for the day.
