Highlights
Pet care experience
I love big pups & I cannot lie ❤️🐾
Hi there, my name is Liz! I am bonded, insured, Pet CPR and first aid certified. I’ve had dogs all my life- from small American eskimos and chihuahuas to giant bull mastiffs. I love dogs and cats of all breeds, temperaments, sizes, energy levels, and ages. I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats from my time working at Petsmart’s PetHotel where I ran doggy day camp during the day and also cared for pets overnight. I also have experience with dog training having completed all 3 levels offered at Petsmart with 4 different dogs. I have my own two dogs, Zelda and Chewbacca, who are spoiled rotten, but extremely well-behaved and very loved! For the last 5 years I have cared for dogs in my home (boarding and daycare) as well as providing drop-in services for both dogs and cats and have loved every minute of it! Thank you so much for checking out my profile and I am so honored to have been trusted to care for so many special, furry, family members! I look forward to having the opportunity to care for yours!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Liz is so knowledgeable and kind to my dog. She is very experienced with care and working with different pet personalities. I highly recommend her.
My puppy had an amazing time here! He would get very excited every morning arriving, and came home tired from a play filled day. Liz is great and sent lots of photos and was very accommodating to my chaotic schedule. I would definitely recommend her!
We absolutely love Liz! Not only was she able to do a pretty last minute weekend request, but she made time for a meet and greet at her place to meet our fur baby. She shared her introduction process with Ayla and her dogs as well as other pups that she’d sit. It made me feel more than comfortable. Liz is very knowledgeable and took great care of our baby girl. She gave her individualized attention/ care based on needs and provided detailed pup-dates with photos. 10/10 recommend and we look forward to having her watch Ayla again in the future.
Our pup seemed to love daycare at your house. Thanks for making the pickup and dropoff experience great, Liz!
Liz had a great space for dogs. She was very knowledgeable and introduced Pixar to other dogs making sure they would get along. He was very happy and calm when I got him back.
Liz was very responsive and accommodating. She works with your dog and makes sure they’re comfortable & does go the extra mile for your pup. Myla seemed to have a blast!

Schedule
My passion is pet care and training, this is my full-time occupation outside of being a mom. I am very flexible and am available every day, evenings, and weekends, including holidays. I know how important finding quality care for your pet is and strive to make it as stress-free as possible.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I love getting to take dogs for walks and am comfortable with those who may not have the best leash manners. I use positive reinforcement to encourage good walking habits. For drop-in’s, I am happy to perform all pet care tasks in your home. I am very familiar with crating dogs (even the less enthusiastic participants), administering medication, changing bandages and applying ointment, following strict food preparation/feeding schedules and care instructions. If you have a dog that loses their appetite when boarded/when you leave, I’m happy to add a tummy safe food topper, cook them rice, or hand feed. I can also offer frozen kong treats using peanut butter, pumpkin or rice and treats to keep your pup entertained during the day or night. For boarding, your dog must be other dog friendly and child friendly. I have a 2 year old and a 5 year old that have been raised around dogs and I do not tolerate any untoward behavior from my children towards animals. The dogs are never left unsupervised, my children are taught gentle touch, giving the dogs space and respecting boundaries. I only board one family of dogs at a time to ensure the highest quality of care and attention. The dogs are allowed on the furniture, and are crated at night if that is what they are used to. I can also provide them a dog bed either downstairs or in my room and crate my own dogs if your dog(s) are not used to a crate or you prefer them to be left out. I have a fenced in yard that is checked daily for debris, and cleared of dog waste. I also have a dog pool and a variety of toys including enrichment activities. My home is vacuumed daily and I use a steam mop for maximum cleanliness and minimum chemicals. I also use pet safe cleaning products like Mrs Meyers, Dawn dish soap, and ensure there are no unsafe plants or toxic foods that they could have access to. Safety is my number one priority and my goal is to make sure your fur baby is as loved as possible while you are away.
Pets
A typical day
Go out for an immediate potty break, back in for meal or treat time, play with a favorite toy, tons of cuddles/pets (if desired- some dogs can be standoff-ish which I definitely understand). I have a collection of durable (and washable) toys such as a ChuckIt and various size kongs. I am constantly adding to inventory to make sure I can keep different pets engaged. Upon completion of the visit, I will secure your pet(s) and home to your specifications. No one wants a vulnerable home or the anxiety of a loose pet.
