Marlene was wonderful. It was clear Jackson was well cared for during his stay. I received many photos of him and he was happy and having fun. Would definitely recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a cozy one-bedroom apartment with no roommates or pets, creating a calm environment for your pet. 🏡 Since I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day. 🚶‍♀️🐕 When caring for pets in your home, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll follow your pet's routine and instructions carefully to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. 🫶

A typical day

I spend most of the day at home, so pets get lots of companionship, attention, and supervision. 💛 We’ll go on regular walks around the neighborhood for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air, and I always make time for play, cuddles, and keeping their routine consistent. If your dog enjoys it, we’ll explore nearby safe walking areas for a bit of variety and stimulation 🌿🐕

I’d love to know your pet’s feeding routine, bathroom schedule, any allergies, how they do around other dogs, and whether they’re comfortable being alone for short periods. 🐾 The more I understand their needs and personality, the better I can keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. 💛
