Responsible Dog Enthusiast

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Mehak. I have always had a passion and love for dogs and all animals. I am here to provide love, fun, good care and spend a good amount of quality time with your dogs. I am also a Certified Dog Trainer and chose this career because of my love for animals and helping families. I have two rescue mutts of my own who are like my children and have brought a lot of joy to my life. I imagine that is the same for anyone who loves and has dogs of their own. I love going outside for hikes, walks and to dog parks where dogs are at their element and where we are all at one with nature. My schedule is flexible and I am home most of the time to give attention to your dog but do have a job M-Th in the afternoons My husband's schedule is pretty flexible since he works from home and will be home most of the time too. We have a nice big fenced yard and a walking path across the house that leads to a nice open park only a couple of minutes away, where we usually walk our dogs. I currently work as a Certified Dog Trainer for a reputable company in Denver and work with dogs almost everyday of the week. I have volunteered for organizations such as Best Friends Animal Society in Utah and the Humane Society in San Diego. At Best Friends, I was involved with dogs of all ages and breeds in tasks such as walking, playing, feeding, socializing with shy dogs, taking dogs on outings, and in positive training interactions. At the San Diego Humane Society, I volunteered with dog trainers in their beginner, intermediate, Canine Good Citizen, shy dog, and recall classes. By observing and helping the trainers along with learning about body language and positive reinforcement training from books, blogs and videos, I have gained invaluable experience in positive dog training techniques. I also started working as a Dog Trainer in a Denver-based dog training company and loving it! I quit cubicle nation in 2014 to travel around the country with my dogs and my husband. We stayed in multiple people's homes while travelling, some who also had dogs, and we took good care of their homes. With my strong interest in dogs and the joy of being surrounded by man's best friend, I transitioned from my previous career in software to dedicate my future to working with dogs and helping dog owners. This is a way I see that is more rewarding where I can directly impact the life of others. Please feel free to ask me any questions before you may book your stay. I want you and your families to have peace of mind while being away from your furry children and knowing they are in good hands. If you have any specific games they like to play and any other unique requirements or special considerations to make them as comfortable as possible, I would like to know. I want to help bring smiles to their faces the way they bring smiles to mine every day.

Mehak took great care of Penny! She sent us photos throughout the whole stay, making sure penny got tons of exercise, social time with people and dogs, and so on. Couldn't ask for better, thanks again!

Cam and Lou always have a blast, and I don't worry one bit about them while working. Thank you Mehak for being so reliable and for taking such good care of our pups!

As always, Penny had a great time with Mehak over the holidays. We got regular picture updates which included visits to the park and snuggle time under the covers. It's nice to not have to worry about your pup when you're out of town. When Penny stays there, she's as close to home as she can be!

Information Mehak G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how your dogs behave with other animals and people, their temperament, if they have any quirks/tendencies (e.g. escape artists, funny habits, etc). No non-neutered or non-spayed dogs for dog boarding at my house but I can do drop-in visits, dog walking or house sitting at your house. Let me know any care instructions for your dog including their feeding schedule, sleeping regimen, number of walks per daily (or weekly) and how long, any medicine requirements, any training requirements if needed (which I am always very glad to help out with), and anything else I should know about them so they get the best love & care possible! I like to always schedule a "Meet & Greet" prior to any scheduling to meet your dog and make sure we would be a good fit.

A typical day

**Rates can be customized based on your specific needs, so feel free to reach out for more info! I offer multiple types of services that you can choose from to best suit your needs, either at my home or yours: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A. Services at my home: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Dog Boarding - If you want full-time attention in a home with a fenced backyard, then this is the option for you! I am home full-time and this way, I can give plenty of attention and care to your dog. My husband who is also great with dogs will be around so if one of us has to step out, your dog won't be alone for too long. * I would like to know approximate drop-off and pick-up times so I can adjust rates, if necessary. The daily rate is for 24 hours of care. If a stay goes between 9 - 12 hours, I'll charge you for the daycare rate (+ $40). If it is more than 12 hours extra, I'll charge another day stay. I don't charge any extra if your drop off and pick up window is 9 hours or less. 2. Doggy Day Care - This is a perfect option if you want your dog to get exercised and taken care of during the day while you are away (at work, etc) but don't require an overnight stay through Dog Boarding. They will get exercise and play time as well as get a lot of love and anything else you require! You can drop off your dog(s) around 8 am and pick them up around 5 pm (8-9 hours) or whatever times suit you. * For both Dog Boarding and Dog Day Care, I can host up to 3 dogs in my home and your stay may overlap with another client's dog stay. If that is an issue, let me know and we can work something out. I have 2 dogs of my own too. All play/interaction is supervised and I prefer to feed the dogs separately to avoid any issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- B. Services at your home (*within 10 miles): ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * If your home is more than 10 miles away, I am still open to take care of your dog for a small extra fee. 1. Drop-In Visits - If you dog would prefer to stay in the comfort of his/her own home while you are away and requires a couple of visits a day to be exercised, walked and fed, then this is a great option! A visit would typically be around 30 minutes and your dog will be given undivided attention and love during this time other than his feeding and any exercise or playtime. If your dog needs more than 30 minutes, just let me know and we can work something out! 2. Dog Walking - If your dog needs to be walked so that they are exercised and get some fresh air a couple of times a day or week, I am here to help. I will come to your home and can take them for up to a 30 minute walk based on what they usually get. If your dog needs more than a 30 minutes walk, similar to the drop-in visits, let me know and we can come up with a plan.
