We are very happy with our decision in choosing Judith to watch our boy Jameson! We appreciated the updates and pics that she sent while we were on vacation, and our boy seemed very content with her and her family. Thank you and we look forward to booking with you in the future!

I’m not from here so I was very nervous when it came to Rover. I am so glad I decided to use Judith and her family. The communication was phenomenal. I truly appreciated the updates, pictures, and videos. Preacher had such an amazing time and I’ll only use her family from now on on Rover

Judith was great and very accommodating for a last minute request. Judith sent photos and videos of Scooby enjoying himself and making himself at home. Scooby slept for 10 straight hours after returning home, he had a lot of fun with the other dogs and kids in the home! Scooby made some new friends and would definitely bring Scooby back!

Judith and her family were wonderful. Scout became like a member of her family. I could not ask for a better experience for Scout and us. We will definitely want to have Scout stay with Judith, when we go on vacation in the future.

Schedule

As someone who primarily works from home, I have the flexibility to provide constant attention and care to your pets throughout the day. My schedule allows me to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and any special needs your pets may have. Being at home means I can quickly respond to their needs, whether it's a cuddle, a bathroom break, or just some company to ease their anxiety while you're away. Your pets will enjoy a calm and consistent environment where they can feel secure and loved, knowing there's always someone around to look after them.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, your pets will enjoy the freedom and fun of a large, securely fenced-in yard where they can safely explore, run, and play to their heart's content. With plenty of space to roam, your dogs will have the opportunity to stretch their legs and burn off energy in a safe and controlled environment. They’ll also have the company of my two friendly and playful dogs, who love making new friends. This social interaction helps keep your pets engaged and happy, providing them with companionship and plenty of playtime. Whether it's a game of fetch, chasing each other around the yard, or just lounging in the sun, your pets will have a joyful and active stay, all under my watchful care.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch starts with a morning walk around the neighborhood. After breakfast, we play games like fetch or set up a little obstacle course in the backyard. Midday is usually quieter, with some cuddle time or a chance for them to nap while I do other things. We might also play some indoor games or have a little training session to keep their minds active. In the afternoon, I keep them engaged with puzzle toys or simple training exercises. Later, we might have another walk around the neighborhood or some playtime in the yard. As the day winds down, we end with a calm activity like sitting outside together. Throughout the day, I make sure they’re fed, happy, and getting lots of attention.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or dietary restrictions that I should be aware of. This includes any medical conditions, allergies, or sensitivities to certain foods or ingredients. If your pet requires a specific type of food, feeding schedule, or portion size, it’s important for me to have those details to ensure they are properly cared for. Additionally, if your pet is on any medications or supplements, or if there are any foods they should avoid, please share that information with me. Understanding these needs will help me provide the best care and keep your pet healthy and comfortable during their time with me.
