Your dogs favorite aunt ❤️

Pet care experience

Hi there! I love dogs so much that I started doing Rover as a hobby. Now, I have a bunch of repeat clients and fur babies that I love like my own! I’ve also expanded my dog training coaching by working with seasoned professionals who train full time. I have a ton of experience with young puppies, potty training, and leash training. I love senior dogs and have experience with them as well. I'm the go-to person in my friend circle for watching and caring for pups because I treat them like my own and tend to wear them out. At my house, your dog will be hanging out with me and my dog Lola Bean (12lb super chill terrier) and my partner, although he works 12-hour shifts so he’s gone most of the day. Outside, your pup will sun bathe in my awesome fenced backyard. We’ll definitely go to the park and because I hike often there’s a good chance for a longer hike during their stay. My routine typically includes waking up fairly early, exercising-- I live near Downtown Los Gatos so I have two dog friendly parks within a 6 block radius. When I'm not eating outdoors or at a park in the city, I'm usually out camping or exploring the bay! Some of my favorite places include Mount. Tam and Orr Hot Springs. *** NOTE: Prices are customized based on pet’s needs, behavioral issues, if they are neutered, private vs. multi dog boarding (private boarding is always required for unneutered male dogs) and if they are fully potty trained. **NOTE: Dogs are rarely left alone under my care but if I have to run an errand, pups must be ok being left for an hour. I never run an errand during their stay that is longer than 1.5hrs. Please let me know if your dog suffers from separation anxiety so we can adjust their stay and price.

Chloe had a wonderful time with Pam! Pam send lots of updates, and they had fun walks in the park. Chloe seemed to feel right at home and when I picked her up she seemed happy and tired from an active, fun day. I will definitely have her visit Pam again!

Pam was very easy to work with and very accommodating when we were running a little late. Seems like her dog and Pepsi hit it out and enjoyed each other’s company. Thanks Pam.

I have a fenced backyard with Lola Bean who gets along with all dogs and humans. Although, she prefers small dogs. I also have a doggy door that allows dogs easy access to the inside for water or when they need a play break.

Information Pam S. would like to know about your pet

I want to know your dog's personality! What are they motivated by, food, play, love? I want to know their energy level and potential allergies. Their anxiety level around new people, other dogs, and leash behavior. Senior Pups: Please let me know if they require special care. How they are on stairs, and how long their walks should be. Training: I want to know what you are working on with your dog. Although I won’t train your pet, I will follow your current protocol for consistency and training reinforcement. Rescue pups: Tell me if they’re shy, tell me what they need to be comfortable- a special place for their bed, to have their own space in my walk in closet, or maybe just a long trust walk before coming into my home. Right before you drop off your pup I'd like to know the last time they pooped and were walked and if they are ok running or if they might be too tired.

A typical day

Park time! Walks! Hikes! Playing in my back yard and sun bathing. And loads of cuddles and maybe some pack walks with other well trained dogs.

I usually take Lola on a walk by 9am, another walk at 1pm. This is a huge part of my routine. If your pup requires more walks or lease let me know.
