Pawsitive Play While You’re Away

Pet care experience

While at work or away, there is no better place for your fur babies to stay. Endless belly rubs, cuddles and play! Pawsitive Play Club Over 10 years experience as a professional dog sitter. Trained in canine CPR and first aid. Veteran owned business. I would love the honor to host your fur babies! While on doggy playcation my guests enjoy 2 - 3 walks a day, depending on their preferences. One of the walks could be up to an hour, one 15-20 minutes and the last is dependent on the weather and your dog’s desire. The longer walk may be through the neighborhood, where we often end up at a small park with several other of the neighborhood dogs. If he/she enjoys playing with other dogs, we will join otherwise we will continue on. I work for home most days, so your baby(ies) will get lots of attention. My backyard has a tall solid brick fence, with a doggy door for access, for any time potty breaks and sunning themselves. If your fur baby hasn’t used a doggy door before, we will have a little fun and see what he/she thinks and if it’s a no go, then I am always happy to open the door. My condo complex also has a large fenced in grassy dog park, where he/she will get lots of off leash time to get out those zoomies! If your dog loves to play or to burn of extra energy, I have several well vetted neighborhood dogs awaiting a call! My rules are the same as your house rules. If you allow on your fur baby on furniture and the bed, then this is also allowed on mine. If not, then he/she can spread out on the cool tile or snuggle into the carpet or their bed, blanket or crate, if provided. I have been dog sitting in both SF and here for well over 10 years, I love animals and treat them all as if they are my own. I love me some doggy snuggles! I have had a dog in my life since I was born, though at the moment it is just myself. I live in S. Scottsdale in a community that is very dog centric. However, if yours is shy we will be sure to keep our space from other dogs and kids. Now if your precious little one(s) likes kids and/or other dogs they will meet many and get lots and lots of love. The kids know to alway ask me before approaching when meeting a new dog. I charge by a 24-hour period. So if you drop off at 5 PM on Friday and pickup at any time on Sunday that would be 2-days. If you drop her off on Friday at 8 am and pick her up Sunday night at 6 PM that would be 3 days. I hope that makes sense. I’m not hard core about it being 5 PM and 5 PM. If it ends up 8-9 PM I don’t charge for that time. I get travel happens, traffic, flights get delayed, etc… While I am also a tutor, dog sitting and tutoring are my full-time gigs. Not a side business. I also volunteered at the SF SPCA walking their dogs and having kids read to their emotional support dogs. I have several references if needed. I also am the Admin for a local 10k+ Facebook group, so I am well known in the community. Looking forward to the opportunity to host your fur babies playcation! Alas my HOA recently added “bully dog” breed restrictions. My apologies as I am no longer able to accept certain breeds.

My pup had a great week stay with Miche! She got to know his quirky personality and kept him busy with lots of play :) In pictures you can definitely tell he made himself at home and enjoyed his time with her.

I needed a sitter last minute and Miche came to the rescue! She took such good care of my Pauly, took him on walks, to the park. I really appreciated the updates throughout the day and making sure my dog was always happy and comfortable. I highly recommend Miche and will be booking again!

Miche was very accommodating of our needs around the holidays! We received lots of pupdates throughout the stay. Would 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for loving and nurturing dog sitter!

Information Miche P. would like to know about your pet

In order to ensure your fur baby(ies) have the best Playcation ever, please tell me all about their favorite things, their quirky qualities, and their fears. What is their favorite petting spot? Are they social with all dogs? Kids? Cats? Are they food or toy possessive or aggressive? Crate or no crate? Do they pull while walking on a leash? Doggy door trained? Are they an escape artist that loves to dart for the front door? Do they have any allergies, foods/treats to avoid or medical concerns? Do they ever have “accidents”? What seems to trigger this behavior change? What else might I need to know to help your fur baby(ies) and you feel more confident and comfortable during their Playcation? Please be sure to provide me with their Veterinarian contact information as well as a local emergency contact. While I hope to never have to use either, I do require this information.

A typical day

We will go on at least two 30 minute walks a day and visit the private community dog park. I work mostly from home so your furbaby will get lots of love, attention and belly rubs. On hot summer days, the walks will be early morning and evening. On cooler days we usually go for 3 walks. The dog park is 80% shaded and perfect on hot days.
