Fenced yard, fun outings

Pet care experience

We live in such a beautiful area and love getting out with dogs for hikes or the beach etc. I have a good sized backyard and second hand furniture I don’t mind your pups on. The cuddlier the better, but I respect a dog who needs some space and quiet too. I have history of house/dogsitting and have lived with 12 dogs in my life. Our larger dog is a high energy rescue mutt who is excellent at calibrating the enthusiasm (or lack thereof) of other dogs in consideration of age and size. (I’ve never seen him not get along with a dog.) Our cat is in/outdoors, good pals with our dogs, and has always lived with dogs. We adopted little Ebby last summer (2018) from Pacific NW pug rescue and she is ridiculously sweet - kind of a little alien baby. She loves people and likes other animals... but really really LOVES people. Finally, if walking was an Olympic sport I’d get a medal. :) I’m excited to meet your animal friend!

Finnegan always has the best time here! It’s like we’re picking him up from camp and he’s had non stop adventures!

I've been to dog shows all around the world and the care, attention to detail and knowledge of Marika impressed me beyond what I could have imagined. The multitude of farm creatures allowed Goldie to exhibit and showcase her self control and poise that propelled her to dominate her field throughout the world. The experience was like a plethora of diversion training on steroids. Thanks again for the wonderful experience.
