Home all day with 2 min-pins!

Pet care experience

When my health took a sudden turn a few years back, the opportunity opened up to work from home. I decided to start a doggy daycare—my dogs love to play with other dogs, so I thought this would be a great way to add some extra activity into their lives as well. I also know how guilty I felt leaving my dogs at home all day while I went to work, so I want to help some local families have peace of mind knowing their dog is having a blast while they are away! Now I’m expanding what I’ve been doing for years by working with Rover. I live with my fiancé and our two miniature pinschers, Cisco and Baby Girl. My fiancé will be home on the evenings and weekends—he loves dogs as much as I do! Our home is in a new development called Santa Fe Trails. We have a large open floor plan that gives dogs lots of room to run, plus a doggy door out to the fenced yard. We even installed a dig-defense system along the fence to prevent the dogs from digging out. My expertise with dogs is one of my greatest assets as a sitter. On top of raising Cisco and Baby Girl and running my own doggie daycare, I also took my old English mastiff through several training courses from puppy through intermediate obedience training. If your dog comes to stay with me, they’ll get plenty of playtime! Cisco and Baby Girl will keep your pup busy, and I have plenty of toys, from balls to ropes to antlers and everything in between. I love to get down on the floor to play with pups. We have a very laid-back household—we don’t mind pets on the furniture. If it’s okay with you, we can even take a trip to the dog park! I consider a meet-and-greet essential. We need to make sure that my dogs will get along with yours and that they’ll all become good friends! I am very flexible, and can accommodate your dog for a few hours or several days. Cisco, Baby Girl, and I are all very excited to meet you soon!

I was very nervous about the whole arrangement; however, Kathleen was very kind. I feel she treated my Letty with love. Letty didn’t seem nervous or anxious when she came home. So far, she is a keeper?

Information Kathleen B. would like to know about your pet

Because of having 2 dogs of my own and hosting more than one family at a time, all dogs who stay with us must be totally non-aggressive and friendly to other dogs (hopefully people too!). We also want to know what your dog loves! Favorite toys, preferred snacks, etc.

A typical day

I am very proactive with communication and will ask you how best to accommodate your dog in advance of their stay. In my household, we tend to be homebodies on weekdays. We’ll get plenty of chances to play, but it will more likely be indoors. On weekends, we’re much more likely to head out to a park to run and play. We have tons of toys laying around, plus dog beds and blankets everywhere. My dogs have everything from rope toys to antlers to balls and everything in between! If your dog has a favorite, feel free to bring it along!
