PERFECT PART TIME POOCH PAD!
Pet care experience
I've seen pups being born, I held my cat when she died, and I've had either a dog or cat for all but three years of my life. In my teens I worked at the Pet Food Cottage in San Anselmo, in my thirties the Marina Pet Hospital, and in my forties as a volunteer dog walker at Maddie's. For the last fourteen years I was the proud, loving, active mother to our Border Collie mix, Shorty. But he died, and while we're not ready to hurriedly replace him...it would be so nice to have a dog around again. We have a 25' by 35' backyard with lots of anise plants to poop or pee on. A sunny deck with comforters.1 Block to a public field and 8 blocks to McLaren Park..where dogs can swim! I have a broad knowledge of all things canine. I've been to numerous dog shows, read about, watch, and learn as much as I can from both dogs and their companions.
Reviews
I think we have found a keeper with Judy! She has been in touch the whole time we were gone. She can probably sense how much I was missing the boys and she would send those photos of the boys having an adventure with her dogs. Judy was very flexible with drop off and pick up. And she understood that the boys are on a special diet. The boys definitely looked happy and we look forward to the next time!
Tadju came back a happy boy yet again!
Again, Tadju loves his weekend getaway at Judy's!
Judy is great, she has watched Levi at her place twice and recently we had her take him out on a walk while we were working long days. Love the picture updates and how responsive she is, Levi has a blast with her and always comes home tired

Information Judy I. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog like to play rough? I have 2 young Bulldogs that have been with 48 different dogs, and they are highly socialized, however part of being a social Bulldog means nibbling, biting, and wrestling. Guest dogs must know how to retaliate and nip back, in order to put my dogs in their place. They respect larger dogs, but have been known to bully smaller, meeker dogs.
A typical day
Whatever your dog likes, I'm equipped to comply. If he wants a walk, or just wants to explore in the yard. If he wants to walk a couple miles up and back b to McLaren for a dip, or just wants to chill and cuddle and watch TV with me and my husband. We offer a safe, loving, indoor/outdoor environment, and I speak dog!
