* A MEET N GREET IS A REQUIREMENT BEFORE I CAN CARE FOR YOUR PUP. I'm a Dog Mom of 2 and a published Children's Author, so I make my own hours and work from home. My schedule allows me to easily take Breezy and Pax for walks, to the park, and, most importantly, to their scheduled Vet appointments (my Vet is only 5 minutes from our home). My husband, Dan, is home on the weekends, so he's able to spend lots of fun time with us too. We live in a safe, secure Townhouse complex and there is lots of open, grassy space for your dog to enjoy fun, safe on-leash walks and/or play (fetch, frisbee and the like). There are also lots of paved paths should your pup prefer a more structured walk. There are dogs in our neighborhood so if your guy or gal likes to be social, I know the areas to go. Should he/she prefer a quieter time, I know those areas as well. No worries. Breezy (our almost 10-year-old Yorkie) is our little Princess, who loves baths, brushing, and modeling her vast wardrobe. We adopted her when she was 2 and she's added so much joy to our home! She's full of spunk and keeps us on our toes! She has tons of toys, knows them by name, and loves to share! Breezy earned her Canine Good Citizen Certificate and Therapy Dog is what we're working on now. Breezy's been in Wal-Mart, the Bank, Post Office and even CVS! Everywhere we go, people smile and give her love and stop to chat. She's quite the socialite, all dressed up in her dresses, sweaters and coats. We adopted Pax (our almost 9-year old Blenheim Cavvie) last summer and he's a retired stud pup. His full name is "Paxon" which means "peaceful town" and he's brought more peace to our lives, especially during this rough past year. He's a sweetheart and LOVES belly rubs, naps, cucumbers and going for walks! Since he spent the first 5 years of his life on a farm with no Vet care and sleeping on woodchips in the barn, he's thoroughly enjoying living the "good life" with lots of cuddler beds, healthy snacks and regular Vet visits (everyone there loves him). He just started giving sloppy Cavvie kisses and standing up to give me hugs. He knows "sit," "up," "down" and "stay." We think he understands more but chooses not to listen, as is his prerogative. He's wary sometimes, but gets along with all dogs (Breezy eggs him on sometimes) and humans who he comes in contact with. We are still learning about him each day and loving every second! He doesn't care for toys or play. He prefers being petted, rubbed and brushed. We are very affectionate and express our love towards Breezy, Pax and Guests through verbal praise, hugs, petting, kisses and healthy treats-veggies, peanut butter, bananas, blueberries, green beans, peeled apple, pumpkin, and things I make from scratch! We choose to take only 1 dog into our home at a time to assure that he/she will receive the most personal care and attention possible. I am Certified in Dog Behavior, Training, Dog Psychology, Pet First Aid and CPR, and Pet Loss and Bereavement, and most recently, Canine Communication. I completed a Certification course for Reducing Risks While Caring for Anxious or Aggressive Dogs. I also provide Doggy Day Care if you'd like your boy or girl to spend an afternoon or just a few hours with us having all kinds of fun! I would preferably board and provide daycare to the medium to smaller size dogs. Your dog can expect to enjoy as many short walks a day as he/she so desires. Also, playtime is huge in this house-ropy, fetch, and whatever your pup finds to be the most fun for him/her! Should your little guy/girl be more on the mellow or shy side, rest assured that he/she will be treated with special attention and there is ample room for him/her to have private time with me. I work from home so your pup(s) will have care their whole stay. When pups are in my care, they are my number one priority. I have a fenced in yard and all are invited on the furniture. I have my kitchen gated just in case your baby needs extra attention. I can crate your pup if needed.
