I like to keep your pets on their normal schedule so tell me what their normal day looks like. When do they wake up, eat, snooze, exercise, potty, and go to bed. Also please share the following: - Veterinarian information. - Any special diet, medications, supplements, special toy or music/TV they like. - If you have a local emergency contact, share their contact information, just in case I can’t immediately reach you. - Tell me about any health concerns, physical limitations or injuries. - Normal mood and behavior patterns so I can watch for signs of separation anxiety. The more information I have the better the visit your pet will have.

For each service I offer I meet with you and your pet(s) face-to-face to make sure I am the right fit for you and your pet(s) needs. During this meeting I work with you to understand your pet’s current routine, habits, and activity level. My goal is to keep them on their current schedule of care. I answer any questions you may have and together we create a care plan that will be used to structure the visits. For all my services you can be assured that I will arrive on time, I come alone, I will follow the care plan we establish, I will provide you with multiple photos and written Visit Activity and Wellness report, I will respect your privacy, and most importantly I will take great care of your pets! DOGGY DAY CARE: What You Can Expect From Me --- - Your dog will enjoy the full-time companionship of a friendly human while away from home. Your pups will never be unsupervised. - A clean, air conditioned and safe home to enjoy. - Access to fresh water at all times. - A fenced, landscaped, dog safe backyard in a quiet neighborhood. - I only sit one pet family at a time so your dog will not be exposed to other dogs. - Couch and bed sleeping allowed. - No cages (unless this is a pet parent request). - Morning walk to get some wiggles out (with pet parent permission and weather permitting). - Feeding and treat schedules customized for your pups. - On-Time medication and/or supplement administration as needed. - Photos and updates throughout the day. - Water play (wading pool and splash pad) if your dog enjoys the water. I just ask that your pups be: - Fully potty trained. - Proof your pups are current on the following vaccinations: 1: Rabies 2: Distemper/Parvo (DHPPV) 3: Bordetella - In good health - Written medication/supplement instructions - Sorry but we do not accept aggressive dogs DOG WALKING: What You Can Expect From Me -- - Your dog(s) will get in a FULL 30 or 60 minute walk. - I arrive on time and alone, and I won’t snoop through your things. - You will get photos of your dog(s) from the visit and a detailed digital map of the path we walked. - You will get a written Health and Wellness report of how your dog(s) is doing and how the walk went. - I use a properly fitted full body harness & weight strength leash to prevent any chance of escape or injury. - I plan walk routes in advance to make certain that the route is safe. I avoid busy streets, dogs off leash, and other hazards like construction zones, hot pavement, etc... - Immediate phone communication with you if any problems come up with your pet. A TYPICAL 30- MINUTE WALK BOOKING looks like this: I arrive and greet your pet, check for any problems or inside accidents and clean them up. I put on their harness, and we go out and walk for at least 30 minutes. I lock your home when we depart. When we get back home; I refill all water bowls with fresh water, top off food bowls as needed, hand out treats to good dogs, give medications if scheduled, and write up a Visit Activity and Wellness report while your pet calms after the walk. Just before I depart, I make sure your pet is safe and your home is locked & alarms armed. I send you the Visit Activity and Wellness report to you as the last thing I do before I drive away from your home. All of this means that I will be with your pet for longer than scheduled 30 minutes. ON THE WALK: I let your dog(s) set the pace. I will not pull or drag them along. I allow them time to sniff and explore along the route. I try to avoid other dogs and children for safety reasons, so sometimes we will change directions, cross streets, etc. to avoid potential problems. I always clean up after your dog(s) if they poop on the walk. I never let dogs in my care off lead. I am flexible and open to designing an individual walk program that meets your needs and fits the capabilities of your pet.
