In my experience, the most important thing that I can provide your pet while you're away is an experience as close to their day to day routine with you, as possible. Dogs thrive on their sense of routine and normalcy, and my number one goal is to recreate that feeling of home whenever you're away. Keeping your traditions and routines in place is the BEST way to keep your dog happy, relaxed, and anxiety free in your absence. Having to leave your dog for any length of time is never easy for you or your dog, but so much of the trauma of it can be alleviated if not completely avoided by respecting and honoring the techniques, mannerisms, and overall vibe that you share with your dog. ****Unfortunately I will not be able to take any cat sitting requests as both of my boys are allergic....
