Whether you hire me for drop-in visits or housesitting stays- I'll work for you to maintain your dog's routine, making sure that your best friend experiences as little stress as possible in your absence. You'll be pleased to know that a member of my family or myself will be home 95% of the time. During boarding stays in my home, your dog will go for a mile long morning walk each day with my dogs. They will move freely in or out of the house via doggy door. Your dog will have the choice to sleep in their own bed, the couch, or my bed if they choose. I have a fenced yard your dog can explore, and 2 sunny decks they can relax on. Your dog will play with my dogs, hang out in the living room as we watch TV, cook meals and do work at the computer. All the routines of your home will be here, bringing your dog comfort and peace. I have grown up with and loved dogs my entire life. I've had labs, terriers, and now have a Pug as my best friends. I am responsible, flexible, and I have a love for animals (especially dogs!). I have a genuine concern for animals safety and well-being. I have a keen intuition toward dogs behaviors and am patient with them in training. Please only make a sitting request if your dog is able to listen to simple commands or learn them. (Sit, No, Off, etc.). Your dog must not be destructive or have aggression toward other animals. I am very good at handling all types of dogs, but for my family's sanity must limit my services to 2 well-behaved dogs when boarding in my home. Exceptions will be made for exceptionally behaved pets, so please let me know if this applies to you and we can discuss at our meet-and-greet!
