Go above and beyond for any canine

Pet care experience

*message me directly to avoid service fees :) * I have gained a significant amount of skills through experience with canines for 10+ years. I have a passion for canine health and I've opened up a business that sells handmade holistic products such as treats, first aid ointments, and toothpaste. I've also had experience as an assistant at a dog training company. I helped train, board, and groom dogs. Lastly, I was a dog mom to a beautiful Belgian Malinois who passed last July so I've experienced what its like to want the very best for your pet.

MJ is the PERFECT dog sitter for anyone looking! She watched our big dog this past weekend and exceeded our expectations by A LOT. She took care of our dog like he was her own. She sent us constant photos and updates, making us feel at ease that he was doing well. She took him on multiple walks, did some training with him and kept him active while also ensuring he got his rest when needed. Every night we would receive an "overall report" of Sal's day and how he did/what he did throughout the day, with great detail. It was so impressive and helpful! MJ is extremely efficient and caring. She takes her job seriously and respects you and your dogs needs throughout her stay! She is truly a one of kind pet sitter. It felt as if a trusted family member was watching our big boy Sal :) MJ kept our house tidy and it looked like no one had even stayed there when we got back from our vacation! We will absolutely be booking MJ again for any future dog sitting we need, and you should too! Thank you MJ! Sal already misses you and your wonderful self!!!

MJ was awesome! She went above and beyond in keeping me in the loop with my two pugs. My dog Bud was so comfortable with her and this is huge as he struggles with anxiety and being around new human/animals. I love how he quickly warmed up to her. Highly recommend MJ!

We loved meeting MJ and our Akita Dottie clicked right away with her. MJ is super communicative with us about her availability and with updates/photos of Dottie while she's pet sitting for us. It's such a relief to have someone we trust in our home and with the dog. MJ is very personable and bright and we'll definitely be asking to her to stay with Dottie whenever we have future plans.

Information MJ L. would like to know about your pet

Communication is key, therefore I think the most important thing to know is their temperament, whether they have triggered anxiety, and or dog/ human aggression.

A typical day

I enjoy activities that are mentally and physically stimulating to the dog. Take our time in the sun, looking for a nice park or a patch of green grass so they can smell all they want and potty happily
