Specializing in small dogs
Pet care experience
I've owned a dog or many dogs since I was 18 years old and I am now 53. I specialize in small dogs requiring a safe active loving home environment and im home with them all day or they come with me. I have consistently raised each of those dogs until their natural passing.... I'm not uptight or strict in my care however I am the alpha at my house. I have a very annoying dog whistle that's effective for all dogs and I have never had a problem with recall.(may require training your dog to recall) I prefer consistent training and discipline over crate training but my care for your pet is based on your wants and needs (as long as it doesn't conflict for the others i have in care) and especially consistency for your pet. I allow them on the furniture with training if they are permitted. I train my own pets and can also help with yours. Dogs cats birds reptiles or whatever ...I can also pick up and drop off your pet. I have a special room just for cats as well. Additional tasks required additional costs. (Poor recall, extra needy or whiney or Barry, bigger dogs and or hairy dogs as you know would required extra attention time or cleanup there by reflecting on price. ex: smaller dogs are smaller messes less space/ clean up /big dogs are more hair/foot prints/muscle for care etc.

Nora took care of my small 5 lb pomeranian chihuahua named Susie . She had her at her home for 5 days and made sure to send lots of picture and video updates showing how Susie was doing . They went on walks and looked to be having so much fun together and I would not hesitate to leave Susie with her again in the future!

I have a completely fenced yard with adequate room to run.. I do have 2 other dogs as well that will assist in entertaining yours and keeping them comfortable and assist in training. I also have 2 cats that have no problem with other dogs or if they find the other dogs seem anxious they will hide and not be a bother. I use an open dish policy for food and I treat my pets as though I would my kids. I don't take my eyes off them unless they are safe. I give grain free good food and treats are dried duck or chicken or freeze dried liver or salmon. No milk bones here.

Information Nora L. would like to know about your pet
Allergies and phobias are important to know as well as if your pet has had any injuries or surgeries. Since we play and have active visits I would need to know if your pet has anything to watch for or be extra careful with such as current medical condition or past one. If your pet has worms or coughing or other transferable disorder requiring moderate socializing to minimize contact.
A typical day
I have a 3 park route with my own dogs taking them to their favorite dog parks. Also some river time if the water is clean(rarely) they can splash around. I also love to throw the stick or ball and play gimme. I most enjoy watching the dogs play together..... tug of war or hide and seek and chase... or my dogs favorite...get my collar wrestling. Most enjoyable for all and I send lots of updates and pics and videos.

My routine has been the same for the last 35 years... I wake up and I go immediately to take my pets to the dog park where they can be let loose off-leash to do their business... it can take anywhere from 10 or 30 minutes. Then they play or snack or rest at home happily until midday which for them would be approximately between 12 and 3 o'clock I would take them out for another run around same way off-leash And once again at the end of the day before bed between 6 and 10 depending on time of year. That's an example based on a summer schedule however my daily routine would be based on your pet's needs and my preference would be to do 3 times a day if I have them in my full-time care.
