Loving care when you’re not there

Pet care experience

I have had pets my whole life. From cats, to hamsters, to birds but my favorite little guys are the two boston terriers I have now who stole my bed and my heart. I am a responsible professional who will take care of your home and your pets. In the summer months I take my older dog to the dog park for lots of interaction (my younger one gets a bit too anxious with that many wagging tails around). We also are part of a Boston terrier meet up group where we go on fun adventures such as the Bark and Brew in Grafton and the Boston Terrier Parade in Saratoga. We have a large fenced in yard for lots of play time. Also, don’t forget it’s that time of year again! Let’s keep our pup’s healthy and happy with some flea and tick preventative! Need help picking one? I’m happy to recommend one to you! Cant wait to meet your babies. Please note that for house sitting, my toddler daughter will likely be with me. If your pups are not good with kids, we are likely not a good fit. .:What to Bring:. ❏ You might consider leaving a piece of home with your pet, like a shirt, a special toy or a blanket. ❏ Bring your pets own food, bowls, and medications(Changing food without mixing causes diarrhea) ❏ Make sure your pet is current on all of his flea and tick preventatives. Ideally, your pet has had a recent and thorough physical examination, possibly even with bloodwork ❏ Please don’t skimp on the details or instructions. This is a member of your family, and just as you would with your child, make sure I am fully aware of specific personality traits and potential areas for trouble ❏ Leave multiple methods for contact in case of an emergency and your wishes in case of emergencies ❏ Finally, make sure your pet is up-to-date on the required vaccines: This usually includes DHPP, rabies, and bordetella — if you’re unsure about any of these, check with your veterinarian.

We've had Nadia cat sit for us twice and will again. She does a great job, with daily pics and communication. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend Nadia for your pet sitting needs! She was extremely reliable and communicated with us every visit sending pictures and an update on how our cats were doing! We were able to fully enjoy our vacation without a single worry because we knew she was taking great care of our babies!

Safety, trust & environment

Since having a baby a year and a half ago, my daughter comes with me to a lot of my clients. I take extra precautions with doggies that are not as well behaved on a leash such as an additional harness clip or double leashing. The safety of my fluffy friends is my highest priority followed by their happiness of course.

Information Nadia S. would like to know about your pet

1. Vaccination records I want to keep the boarding as safe and healthy an environment as possible, so I need to know your pet is up to date on all their vaccinations. 2. Medical history information I will need any and all relevant medical information for your pet (past health issues, medications, allergies, behavioral issues, etc.). This way, if a problem does arise, I can make sure to give your pet the best and most informed care possible, as quickly as possible. 3. Any required medications This includes detailed instructions on when and how to administer them. If your pet needs any type of regular medication, I need to know their schedule and the best way to administer any pills, treatments, etc. for their health and comfort. 4. Any special foods or dietary limitations If you plan on leaving special foods for your pet, they should preferably be packaged and dropped off with them in a resealable container. We feed all of our board pets on regular schedules throughout the day, but if your pet requires any particular measures, let me know. 5. A favorite toy or other items from home We provide bedding, daily walks, and playtime, but your pet may still want to have a familiar and well-loved toy with them during their stay. I will work hard to keep your pet as happy and comfortable as possible, but they may feel better with their favorite blanket, stuffed animal, or squeaky toy along for company. 6. Anything else your pet might require while you’re gone This includes certain treats, rawhides, detailed instructions on their personal schedule (bathroom, walk times, etc.), notes on behavior, or a pre-recorded video message for them to watch while you’re away.

A typical day

We have a large fenced in yard where your dog can run off leash and play lots of fetch. During drop in visits we like to get as much out of the visit as possible to get some of that energy out while you are away. Weather that mean fetch, tug or just belly rubs.
