Information Jeanne G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know special dietary or exercise needs, or accommodations for handicaps, if he has been rescued or deals with PTSD, any special trigger words or habits that help him feel at ease, and how he behaves around a cat. I’m sensitive to high-pitched barking, so “yippy” dogs would do better with a sitter other than me. Merritt Island is home to several reliable and friendly pet-tenders! I do not accept dogs that bite. If arranged in advance, I’m open to taking your dog for an extended outing (beach, park), for an additional fee we discuss. Your pup would need to fit in the back of my Chevy Volt. (A retriever would fit, a Great Dane would not.)

A typical day

Regarding doggy daycare option, we live in the Surfside Estates development, off of Banana River Drive N, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. I enjoy playing fetch or throwing a frisbee. I’m glad to curl up with a book, dog by my side, or cat in my lap.

Jeanne and family took great care of our bernedoodle Mak. Jeanne sent pictures during the day. He loved playing with their golden retriever, Stella. Thank you so much!
