Safety, trust & environment

I live in an area that is abundant with fellow dogs and dog friends, allowing for socializing and extra entertainment and enrichment if the prospective dog works well with others. I’m also a short distance from a massive dog park where I take my own boy to get out some off leash zoomies. I have three cats in house who are familiar with dogs but will make themselves scarce if they’re uncomfortable and have their own room to hide where no dogs can go.

Information Katie C. would like to know about your pet

If a dog is staying with me, I would like to know if they get along with cats. My kitties have always had dogs in their life and are pretty apathetic to them, except when it comes to play time (which is gentle)... so any dogs staying with me must be familiar and comfortable with cats.

A typical day

Bike or walking trails through around Bolton Valley or in town Mellow mountain hikes Lots and lots of fetch, frisbee, and ball Trips to lake (if the pup likes water)

Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover to the core and not a single dog frightens me. I dog sit Mini Yorkies up to German Shepards for my friends and family and have always had dogs in my life. In the past, I’ve assisted caring for my mother’s chihuahua who pinched a nerve in his spine and had been paralyzed from his waist down so I’m familiar with mildly handicapped dogs. I go on hikes/walks through town forests every weekend with friends, so what’s another dog or two in the mix! Generally available weekday evenings and weekends. Whatever activities your dog enjoys or you prefer your dog to partake in, I will gladly oblige as it would be my responsibility to keep them as happy and comfortable in your absence. I have my own one year old GSD/Border Collie mix who is extremely friendly and loves to play and socialize.

Katie was great, she took excellent care of our lab and made sure to give him lots of walks and attention. Also, she was wonderful about sending updates, pictures and videos.

Katie was wonderful. She c LLP molested the king list of tasks. The pops were well taken care of and she was flexable on time.
