I've been doing pet care for the last 10 years while I was in New York City and since, and even had my own older dog Dante there. I unfortunately lost Dante in June 2016 (the big guy in the photos), and have moved back to the Southern California area in the beginning of 2017. I now have Lola, a sweet bichon frisée who loves all dogs. My roommate also has a dog but he’s not happy with newcomers, so I’m no longer able to host in my own home. I do primarily overnight care out of the owner’s home, generally sleeping on the ouch or guest bedroom if there is one. This ensures your pup(s) are comfortable in their own home with their own toys while Lola and I join in on the fun. We love going on adventures, so I'd love to take your pup there for some fun in the sun, sand & surf! I make sure that your dog sticks to their routine, gets plenty of exercise & socialization, and I adapt myself around their needs and schedule. As I was quite obsessive over how Dante was doing while I was gone (and Lola too), I make sure to keep parents up to date on how their pup is via photos/videos/emails. Don't worry about your dog's size or age - Dante was a giant and lived to 13 years old! I've looked after diabetic, blind and/or deaf, obsessive compulsive, aggressive, shy, and all other personality or physical types. There is no situation that I would hesitate to work with. And best of all: I love to snuggle with any dog.
