Mimi was amazing for our pup. She took care of her like she was her own. She kept us updated with messages and photos. We will use her again, and again!
Thanks so much for taking such good care of our fur baby! We knows he’s a lot of work!

Schedule
I am working from home while going back to school, on line, so my schedule is very flexible for lots of pup care! I am also available for house sitting.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have lots of trails nearby, a private road with a nice sidewalk and many beautiful parks nearby. Depending on the weather and what your pup enjoys. I have tons of dog toys and treats if your pup prefers indoors and I can also go to your home, if that is more convenient.
Pets
A typical day
I love to go on safe trails, if it’s not too hot but either way I always carry water bowls and bottles. Parks can be nice, but not all dogs are comfortable in parks that are specifically dog parks. I would assess your pet and monitor carefully. Sometimes a dog is happier in neighborhood sidewalks, close to home, especially in the beginning of our relationship. I have toys and balls, we would get to know each other and see what makes your pup the happiest! I have a nice SUV with a safe backseat for pups to ride in, if need be.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsUnspayed females accepted, neutered males onlyNo females in heatTakes only 1 client at a timeMarianne "Mimi" can host up to 1 pet per night
- I’d like to know how they like to get along with other dogs, where they most enjoy going or what they like or dislike going. Things that may frighten them or to avoid. Treats they enjoy, for sure. I don’t have a breed preference, I truly love and can work with any size or breed , puppies or senior dogs, and have done so.
