I always prefer to schedule a meet-and-greet ahead of time, especially for first-time bookings. It gives me a chance to get to know your pets, their routines, personalities, likes, and any special needs they might have. It’s also a great opportunity for you to ask questions, walk me through your expectations, and make sure it’s a good fit on both sides. I believe meeting ahead of time helps your pets feel more comfortable and makes for a smoother, more stress-free experience while you’re away.

For dogs, the day usually starts with a morning potty break and a walk to stretch their legs and get some fresh air. After breakfast, we enjoy some playtime or cuddle time, depending on your pup’s energy level. I make sure they get enough exercise, mental stimulation (treat puzzles or training games), and downtime throughout the day. For cats, I follow their rhythm. Some greet me right away for food, pets, or playtime, while others prefer a slower approach. I keep their feeding and litter box routines consistent, spend time engaging with them (if they’re social), or simply give them space and quiet if they’re more independent. In the evening, dogs get another walk, dinner, and relaxing time. Cats often enjoy evening play or perch time by a window. Before bed, I make sure everyone is cozy, safe, and content. I send regular updates, photos, and little notes so you always know how your pets are doing. Whether your pets are shy or outgoing, energetic or calm, I create a peaceful, loving environment that helps them feel at ease while you’re away.
