Pet care experience

A happy, fun doggy day!

I am a dog lover. I like taking care of my 1 1/2 year old puppy since i got him at 4 months. I love watching them play, interact and have fun. I like to cuddle with my puppy, toss a ball, play fetch and run around with my puppy. I have experience with puppies and young dogs. It is my goal to make the dogs in my care feel loved, safe and having fun while their owners are away. I am a teacher by profession and would like to use my summer vacation to enjoy the company of dogs, from puppies, to young dogs, adults and seniors, alongside my puppy and cuddle friend, Chester, who loves dogs of all shapes, ages and sizes. He is such a friendly, social and energetic puppy who likes to meet new dog friends. I have a fenced backyard and a neighborhood that is pet friendly. It is important for me to ensure the safety and well being of your beloved dog. I am a teacher by profession and have summers off. I would like to use this time to relax and be in the company of my handsome, friendly, social puppy Chester and dogs of all shapes and sizes to keep me happy this summer break. I have a fenced backyard and live on a first floor townhouse. My neighborhood is dog friendly and have a lot of paved and grass areas to walk on during the day. I have a lot of toys and treats available in the house. I have a 1 1/2 year old Coton de Tulear puppy that is social, friendly and loves the company of all dogs. My puppy has free reign in the house but also makes use of his crate when he wants to. My guests have the freedom to walk around the house, climb in the sofa or ottoman like my pet. My kitchen can be closed off, if needed, during feeding times.

We had a last minute request and Maria thankfully accepted! Our pup Rocket is so comfortable with her and always has a great time there.

Maria was fantastic. Rudy is a very needy older dog who needs extra care, and she took it in stride. I will be a repeat customer in the future.

I love Maria she was so attentive to our lil peanut and you can tell she loves animals. When we picked him up she was so concerned about the tears in his eyes that she kept trying to clean it. I will definately be using her again and loved that she cared for our lil family member like he was her own.

Pets

A typical day

I love to engage your pet mentally by providing activities like puzzle games, snuffle mats and games. Walks around the neighborhood to see the sights and smells, playing games and having naps and relax times in between would be a great way to spend your day with me!

I would like to know the age and energy levels of each of my guests. I would also like to know if your pet has a habit of jumping onto strangers as a way to greet them, if they pull while walking or shy around new people. Do they need to be walked separately or gets along well when walking with another dog? Do they have any special diets or treats that they are allergic or not allowed to eat? Please let me know if your pet has special needs or anything you think I should know to make their stay a great one. I like to experience all breeds of dogs and get to know their likes and dislikes and make sure they feel right at home and you, as the parent, know that your family member is well taken care of while you are away.
