Safety, trust & environment

I can either come to your house to let your pet stay in his/her own environment or if they come to my house to stay, they will join my menagerie for their visit. I have kitties, so they must be cat-friendly. At my house, the day starts with a potty break in my fenced yard, followed by a 20-minute walk either in the morning or at lunch time. There is a second walk of a at least 20-minutes after work around 7 and potty breaks, pets and treats on my work breaks. There are pet beds all over the house, kitties to play with and my dog Sadie (a mix, around 50lbs). My pets range at night but guest pets have to be crated at bedtime. I can put the crate in my bedroom if it will make your pet more comfortable.

Information Lacey S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the following: - Is the dog friendly toward other people and dogs when meeting them on the street? Cats in the neighborhood or squirrels? - Cats in the home? - What are your walks normally like in terms of length? Pace? - What is the dog's preferred play style? Petting style? - Does the dog have any dietary restrictions? - If you have a cat, how social/friendly is it toward people?

A typical day

I will walk your dog around the neighborhood, provide ear scratches and belly pets. If you have a fenced yard, I'm happy to throw a ball around or play tug of war. If your dog is friendly with other dogs, we can say hello to other dogs we meet on walks and trade a few sniffs. Dogs who stay at my house get to play with my dog Sadie and in our yard. Kitty visits include clean water, food, clean litter box and if your kitty is friendly, hopefully some pets and purrs!

Pets

Top notch pet care!

Pet care experience

Being extremely attached to my own dog and cats, I understand how hard it is to be away from them! You can rest easy, I will care for your animals as if they were my own. Big and small, cat and dog, I love them all! Please note: I only accept dogs in my home for boarding that have been around cats and are known to be cat-friendly.

Lacy was fantastic, she kept up great communication. Our dog Hera had a blast trying to become best friends with her cats. We will definitely be booking with Lacy again!
