A typical day

I love how much dogs take in from the environment on their walks! Sniffing new smells and checking out new places is such a great way to stimulate a dog's mental and physical needs. Playing fetch typically tires out my pup as well. Teaching tricks and skills is also a fun way to engage your pet.

Pet care experience

I've taken care of my own dog since she was 4 months and have gone through obedience and behavior training with her! I've taken care of family pets including cats. I have experience working in a veterinary clinic as a veterinary assistant and in kennels and worked with many cats and dogs.

Itzel was amazing with our dog Fig, from the start of the booking she was very responsive and provided us with pictures and updates throughout the stay. We were a little nervous because this was our first overnight booking with our pup, but she made us comfortable and feel at ease especially with the long list of instructions we’ve left. We would definitely book her again!

Itzel is great. She was on time and communicated well. Farley took to her immediately and was excited to see her the next day. I will definitely be booking her again!
