Pampering "vacays" for your dog

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Misty. I live in a house in SW Portland with my two dogs, Jasper and Olivia. We live on a quiet dead end street in a very dog friendly neighborhood. The house sits on a large lot which is bordered by mature trees, so there is plenty of space to run around. The front yard often serves as a gathering place for many of the neighborhood dogs when everyone is out. It is like having our own little dog park. Gabriel Park is close and often a destination while on a walk. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I even toyed with the idea of opening my own dog daycare business and volunteered time working at an existing daycare to gain experience. Meet my pets Jasper & Olivia About my yard The backyard is not fenced in but bordered by natural habitat. The house is located in a hilly area, so the very back of the backyard drops off and is wooded. There are a number of mature trees that border the actual yard. There is plenty of space to run and play. Olivia enjoys having her ball thrown around out back throughout the year. My experience administering medication Yes, I am comfortable administering medication. Jasper and Olivia have undergone surgical procedures that required administration of medications following. A previous dog of my had allergies, so I am also comfortable delivering medication through injections.

Misty gives our Chipper the best care. He’s an old dog and she gives him his meds and TLC. Chipper is always happy to see Misty!

Wonderful. Just plain wonderful. Misty provides Kona with a loving environment. It's his favorite place to stay when he's away from home.

Information Misty S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the basics about a dog before sitting; such as daily routines, likes & dislikes, any health concerns, etc. I do not have any breed preferences.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks The neighborhood is great for walking and close to a number of other prime dog spots like Gabriel Park and Hillsdale Park. We are frequent visitors to both as they provide the opportunity for socializing with other dogs but also provide opportunity for independent exercise if need be. Your dog's sleeping arrangement The only piece of furniture that is off-limits to all dogs, including my own, is the couch. There are a number of dog beds throughout the house. Jasper and Olivia tend to enjoy napping on my bed during the day. Time I'll spend with your dog I work from home and am with my dogs the majority of the day. The only time they really spend alone is when I head to the gym or run errands like the grocery store.
