Active and Nurturing Pet Companion
Pet care experience
Like everyone on here I am an animal lover, I see animals as a part of the family. What sets me apart from others is my LOVE FOR PLAY. You might say I have a passion for it. I write and illustrate children's books in my spare time as well as volunteer with kids. Any rules, guidelines you have for your furry friend I will abide by. I may have no professional experience, but grew up on farm with a wide range of animals. I work from home, making my day easily centered around your pet. I live very close to a park, and love the outdoors. If your furry friend isn't very active, thats fine! I've always been a big fan of snuggling, and would love a companion while I'm working. If your pet likes his her own space, not a problem either. It is my guarantee to treat your pet as if he/she were my own. **** I do live with my boyfriend- he is a Forrest Firefighter and often times is not home. Just wanted to make sure it is known in case any pet has any fear/concerns with a man around****
Reviews
Five stars, as always. Maxene is the best. Period. I don't know how, but she has a seemingly endless supply of energy and love for dogs and the competence and courtesy to care for them just the way they need. Hope to see her again soon!
She was amazing!!!! Our dog was not the easiest (she has some serious separation anxiety) but she made her feel comfortable and she was extremely patient with her. She updated us continuously and made us feel comfortable. Would highly recommend her ❤️
Where do I even begin with Maxene? She's the best dog sister I have ever heard. Bar none. The amount of photos she sends, the amount of love she gives, her complete enthusiasm for anything dog-related makes her such a good fit for a dog like mine, who loves to snuggle and gets a little rambunctious. She is super professional and reliable but also extremely warm and friendly -- she invited me inside to see her space so that I knew my dog would be all set during the day. When I was late for a pickup, she didn't complain and (I think genuinely!) appreciated the few extra minutes of hanging out with my dog! Best of all, because she is who she is, I never worry about how my dog is treated during the day when I'm at work. Being able to focus on work means I work shorter hours and have more energy to spend with my dog when I get home. I can't recommend her enough! And I'll definitely be rebooking to make her party of our regular routine. Thanks Maxene!
Maxene is fantastic! Lola loved staying with her! I got picture updates and she was easy to communicate with. She had no trouble giving medicine either. Lola had a great time thanks again! I would highly recommend Maxene!

Information Maxene D. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed preferences, I love all animals. I also have a brief questionnaire I ask all new clients to fill out, this questionnaire I keep on file for any potential future stays. It allows me to get a better understanding of your pet's daily schedule, behavior, and any medical history or concerns you might have. My goal is to keep your pet as happy as possible and on their normal schedule.
A typical day
Walks around the park, brief lunch or brunch at some patios if weather is permitting and you do as well, picnics at the park, dog park visits, play dates with other clients that I believe would be a good fit, and activities that your pet likes to do.
