Before we schedule a meet a greet, I’d love to know if your dog has stayed with a sitter before, whether they’re spayed/neutered and up-to-date with vaccines, and how they usually get along with other dogs and new environments. My dog is very accustomed to new four-legged guests and is always happy to cuddle or play, but he's also excellent about leaving dogs alone if they prefer. Together we have many years of professional experience with all kinds of dogs, but for the safety of everyone, I regret that I cannot take any pups with aggressive tendencies or destructive habits.

Part of the reason I have a dog is to get me out of the house. We love long walks, but can easily change that up if your dog prefers a shorter expedition. Our yard is zoomie central, and we take frequent breaks to potty, play fetch or tug-of-war, and practice tricks, too! When the weather is bad, there’s still lots of room to play indoors in my “bowling alley”.
