Pawsitively Excellent Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Mia, and I operate HappyTails Petcare from my apartment home :) Please be advised a child lives at home, so if you arent sure if your pet is child friendly, or youre unsure how well they get along with cats (I have a neutered male &female feline who are harmless) a meet and greet will be required prior to booking. ***3 day advance notice is required for booking-cannot accept requests less than 72 hrs in advance... My experience with pet care includes having worked the front desk for an animal hospital for 2 years, volunteered foster care for the AZ Humane Society, & attended schooling in the veterinary assisting field(not certified but retained very helpful knowledge) It is my priority to provide the absolute BEST experience for your fur baby! That being said, routines, diets, and special requests will always be respected & followed. I live in a pet friendly apartment community that offers plenty of paths for walks. I am also on the second floor, please keep this in mind if your dog struggles with stairs. RESTRICTIONS: -no large breeds(including pups) -pets that are not yet house broken -no pets that have unpredictable behavior due to separation anxiety -must be good with children -must be friendly with felines FEES/AVAILABILITY(not flexible): EARLIEST dropoff/pickup time: 8 am LATEST pickup/dropoff time: 8 pm ***if unable to pickup by 8 pm, an additional night will be charged I do work from home, as well leave apt daily to drop off & pickup my child. Other than that, we are typically homebodies unless theres a special event. Weekend activities typically involve the park. Due to my schedule, I can certainly check in with pets- or if in my home, can take out 3x a day. Please see my pet care experience section for specifics on my home environment, as well as my approach on caring for your furry family member.

I was in need of a last minute place for Jazzy to go. Melanie was fantastic! She has the sweetest little boy ever too and Jazzy and him got a long! I got multiple pictures from Melanie. I could tell Melanie was very well skilled in animals and knew a lot about dogs! She noticed somethings about Jazz that she thought was off (but they weren't for Jazz), but still it was nice to know that Melanie knew those things about dogs! Again, I cannot thank her enough and I definitely will be using her again!!

Information Mia R. would like to know about your pet

As far as preferences go, I am unable to host any large breed dogs, unneutered dogs, dogs that are unpredictable around children or suffer from severe separation anxiety. And, as mentioned earlier, your pet must be housebroken. Things that are important for me to know are: -health issues? -behavioral issues(skiddish, aggressive, anxiety, etc)? -how are they with children? -housebroken?(including issues with territory marking,or accidents due to over excitement?) -diet/exercise routines?

A typical day

I would love to take your dog for walks around my neighborhood, go to my local dog park, or even check out Tempe Town Lakes....maybe even just play some fetch or tug of war?
