Weekend Hikes & Runs with your Pup!
Pet care experience
I'm Kay and I live with Lexie (11 yr old pitbeagle mix) , Phinie (2 yr old velociraptor) and my rescued stray cat. I was a long-term dog rescue foster home, walker and volunteer until Lexie and I found each other, and I adopted Phinie during the pandemic. We'd love to look after your dog when you're out of town. I am happy bathing, administering medicine, whatever your pup needs while they're staying here with us. Phinie is scared of strangers so you won’t meet her but she’s fine with slow supervised introductions by me in the garden. Your dog should be ok with cats, ideally, but we can make it work if you’re not sure about their cattasticness. I’m working from home full time throughout the summer. Dogs all go for an early morning walk of at least a mile (45 mins to allow for sniff stops) and then have the run of the fenced yard all day. If your dog needs more activity, additional evening walks and maybe the occasional run are happily provided. I have a fenced yard and dog gates to section off parts of the house if separation is needed. I also have a crate for dogs that prefer it. Dogs are allowed on furniture and the bed.
Reviews
Kay did a terrific job taking care of our dog. She was warm, reliable, and trustworthy with our pet in a way that gave us comfort that he was going to be well taken care of. I have no reservations about using Kay again or recommending her to others.
My pug loves staying with Kay
Kay did a great job watching my dog. There was a yard where he could go outside and feeding instructions were followed.
Kay is great! This was the 2nd time my elder pug stayed with her and he is very at home in her house

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and multiple rooms to give digs some quiet time when needed. I also have extra crates if you don’t want to bring yours.
Home
Information Kay D. would like to know about your pet
Your dog should be OK with cats. For new dogs, we'd prefer a meet and greet just to make sure everything is OK first but are ok if this isn’t possible given the current circumstances. Your dog should be up to date on all shots and flea/tick meds.
A typical day
Walks, hikes, running, visits to parks. My dogs are my adventure buddies and we'd love your dog to come with us. I work from home and have a yard so daily breaks and exercise are a given.
Services
Kay can host
Availability
I’m working from home for June and July. Normal weeks are 2-3 days per week in the office. Dogs are walked morning and evening and can access the garden though a dog door. I have a Nest camera to supervise from afar!
