Experienced Dog Lover and Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi! I love dogs and have owned 2 beagles, and currently own a chihuahua (Paco) and have been house sitting at my own home for a few years now. I have a big backyard, tall fence and live on a hill so coyotes aren't problem but they doggies come are indoors anyways in evenings. The last thing you want to do while away is stress about if your dogs are ok. Your dogs will be treated like they are our own! Even given refrigerator water. Many of my client's don't want larger dogs with their pets, so I am now focusing on watching small dogs. Very good, because we are always at the house and hardly leave the house so basically always watching them. Lots of attention! Great care :) Indoor always outdoor big yard. We will treat like ours. I often give baths and let the dogs even sleep in our beds or bedroom. FOR LONGER STAYS I GIVE DISCOUNT (1 night off for 7 days, 2 nights off for 14 days, etc..)

Thank you for taking such good care of Bella. I’m so thankful we found an amazing sitter for our pup so we can vacation more.

Many of my client's don't want larger dogs with them so I am now focusing on watching small dogs and the smaller medium dogs. We will take great care of your pet!

A typical day

While you're away I'll assure you that your dog and home will be in safe hands. I'll be sure to send pics text/email and give your dogs plenty of exercise, as well as taking them out to go to the bathroom frequently. I'm fine with giving medication or anything other little things you need me to do.
