I will love your pup like my own

Pet care experience

Lifelong animal lover with a serious soft spot for dogs. I have a lifetime of assorted animal ownership (I had 17 pets at one point as a child), and over a decade of experience with sick, injured and traumatized dogs as a volunteer and foster parent for vet clinics and rescues. I have cared for dogs w/ a wide range of disciplinary and health issues and am comfortable with all personalities and medical issues, including those with high anxiety and dogs with severe medical issues, even seizures, diabetes and blindness. I have never met a dog I couldn't win over, and because of my years fostering I have all kinds of tricks to helping dogs settle in, including getting them to eat when they are homesick or missing their people. We have a big, quiet, grassy yard and 2 small dogs that are used to lots of new friends. We can accommodate shy and energetic dogs, our senior pups are some of our favorite customers, but overall we are a social environment with lots of play and interaction. I promise to love and care for your babies like they are part of the family, because I know that they are!

Information Julia A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has had his/her shots, especially Parvo, as this is very high risk in AZ. I would also like to know if they get along with other dogs, have any special needs, and if they are fence jumpers (we have a 6 foot wall) or chewers. We can handle it all, it’s just good to know.

A typical day

Supervised playtime in the yard, a chance to socialize, regular games of fetch, basic obedience training (if requested), visits to the dog park (if available), etc.
