Your dog will be spoiled in my home. We can have playtime outside in my small fenced in yard or he/she can have a pick of one of the hundreds of toys by the fireplace. If your baby is not on a special diet they can indulge in turkey and rice for dinner and treats before bed. I love to give my babies the best!

Information Laura G. would like to know about your pet

Knowing your dogs schedule and needs will help me get your baby acclimated quickly. I have taken in about 30 rescues over the past five years so I am no stranger at introducing dogs to my pack.

A typical day

Depending on your dogs age and level of activity I can provide walks, playtime and anything else necessary to make your baby happy. There is no shortage of food or treats in my home. Your dog will be spoiled!

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner for 22 years now and the last 5 I have taken on senior and special needs dogs. I currently have 12 small dogs in my home with space to hang out, a yard to run in and plenty of treats to go around. PLEASE NOTE: I cannot take high energy dogs. I have several areas to separate dogs if needed. I deal with a lot of rescue dog situations so accidents are not a problem. All small dogs are welcome as long as they are good with other dogs and moderate to low energy (puppies and high energy dogs are a bit too much for my seniors). My youngest dog is 7 and loves to run in circles with anyone that is willing!

I just admire the heart that she has for the dogs. I will definitely get her service again so that I can support.
