Safety, trust & environment

If your pet visits during the day, we have a great, fenced-in backyard for us to play in. They'll have fun sniffing and running when they visit. At your house, we will do what your pet likes to do. Sit on the couch and chill. Can do. Play inside. Also can do. Take a walk. I'm up for that. Just let me know what your loved-on pet wants to do.

Information Nancy P. would like to know about your pet

The behavior characteristics of your dog is very important to know. Having as much information as possible will eliminate any potential dangerous or uncomfortable situations. Flea medicine must be up to date even in the winter.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks The best part of having a dog is taking them on a walk. I love any excuse to get outdoors and go around the neighborhood. We live in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic. They'll be plenty of dog smells to explore. Time I'll spend with your dog 6-8 hours

Pet care experience

We are a dog and cat-loving family. Our beloved beagle, Henry, died at age 19. We rescued Scrappy, a JRT, at 9 years of age. He died in 2020. Our 11 year-old cat, Nick tolerates dogs. He usually hides while they are visiting. We have the perfect fenced-in back yard for a dog to play in while we are outdoors. We love to take long walks around our quiet neighborhood, if that's what your dog likes. Does your dog like to play? Well, so do we. I work from home and can play often during the day. Contact me to see if we are a good fit for you and your fur baby. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover all of my life. I love to dog sit so I can meet many different dogs. Most of them I'd love to keep and am sad when they go. But, I'm happy when they come back for another visit! Why I love cat sitting Cats are great! They can be temperamental but that's okay. Just give me the deets and I can go with their flow. Meet my pets Nick the cat and Marshall, Treeing Walker Coon Hound (well, he's my son's but he visits a lot!) About my yard We have a large fenced-in yard that is shaded with grasses and flower beds. We spend lots of time outdoors so your dog will have company outside.

Nancy has cared for our cat twice now, both a weekend and longer trip. She was communicative and so good to him. We will definitely look to her for future travel.

Nancy took great care of our girls! We received a few updates a pictures throughout the day. Despite some rainy weather, she had them outside playing and going for walks. Islay and Nina were pooped when they returned home. We would gladly have Nancy care for our girls again.
