Pet care experience
Dog sitting overnight in my home
Northeast Philly (Lexington Park) a minute off US 1 at Rhawn and 8 minutes off I-95 (Academy or Cottmon exits) I am a mature women who will give your dog close to the same tender love and care (TLC) that you would give them at home. I enjoy walking the dogs in my pet-friendly neighborhood that borders a 1600 acre park. It is a quiet area, with little through traffic, and it is pretty safe. I have full pane security doors that most of the dogs that stay with me really enjoy looking through regularly as well as glass sliders off the rear of my basement. Most of the furry friends that stay with me like to climb up next to me on my chair and a half in the afternoon and during the evening hours while I watch TV and get their belly tickles. My home and grounds are clean and well kept and I have nice neighbors. Meeting you and your dog is a must before I accept a reservation. I expect that your dog is up to date on their shots, has their monthly flea treatment, and is not aggressive toward me, other humans, or the other doggies I'm hosting. I am very careful about having my guest dogs around any other dogs. I have no fenced yard so your little one is taken for several sniffy tours each day in my pleasant, safe, pet friendly neighborhood and they will spend some time on my doggy runs under my watchful eye or in one of my exterior 5'x5' dog pens. About this sitter: I'm a youthful senior who enjoys the companionship of a dog, but doesn't have a dog of my own anymore. I offer a safe, loving, comfortable place for your small, well behaved darling to stay while you enjoy some time away. Why I love dog sitting Who wouldn't enjoy the unconditional love they get from a dog. Whether it's the joy of their little paws wanting to be picked up and cuddled or watching them crurl up into their beds exhausted from a long day, to those in between times watching them explore on their walks and checking out the other dogs walking by, they are just a joy to have around. About my yard I do not have a fenced yard. Your dog is taken on several walks each day and I spend time sitting outside with them while they are on the doggie run. My experience administering medication I've administered eye drops, ear drops, and oral medications. I do not give injections.

Schedule
I’m retired, so there’s plenty of time to sit together and cuddle. I enjoy taking the dogs for leisurely walks and sniffy tours in the neighborhood. They are taken out every few hours on my property. I do not do boarding during the winter anymore.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I do not have a fenced yard, but a fabulous doggie run and (2) large crates outside. Your pet is not left outside unsupervised, but will be under my watchful eye.
A typical day
First thing, doggies go out on the dog run. Weather permitting, I’ll drink my coffee outside so they don’t need to hurry inside. I have a full glass security door so, I put a pillow in front of it so your dog can watch activities and other dogs walking by. I live in a beautiful, pet friendly neighborhood. I usually walk the neighborhood and driveways. I prefer diversion to get the dog familiar with the neighborhood and the neighbors familiar with the dog I'm watching. After a few trips out, I usually follow the dogs lead. There are plenty of babies, balls and bones for dogs that like to play. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can not sleep in my bed. Some dogs sleep next to my bed; At bedtime my preference is to put the dog's bed in a large, safe crate in my dining room or study and have them in a secure place while I sleep. I take the dogs out about 11:30 pm and sit with them awhile before I go to bed. Most than dash for their spot because they know their getting (2) treats. Time I'll spend with your dog I am home 95% of the time when your dog is here with me. If I need to go to the store, I will likely crate them. It's my practice to take the dog under my care out for a long walk before and after each occassion I go out for an hour or two. I explain to the dog I'm going out for an hour and praise them for good behaviour when I return.
