Information Patrina M. would like to know about your pet

Dogs must be house-broken and neutered. Too many accidents happen otherwise as staying with someone new is always a little stressful for your dog. Willing to administer medications but please note that on your request. If your dog pulls, please provide a choke collar or equivalent of your choosing. I will work with your dog on our walks to not pull but need extra help through devices designed to break dogs of that habit.

A typical day

A typical day includes breakfast followed a 1-2 mile walk. On the weekends it's typically a visit to Stulsaft Park for off-leash fun. Afternoons are another 1-2 mile walk followed by dinner. Treats and hanging out in the yard occur throughout the day based on their interest.

Polly had a great time overnight with Patrina. She loved the dog parks and Patrina kept us up to date with lots of pictures

Patrina was amazing to work with! She took the time to meet with me before hand to make sure King and Bogey would get along. During Bogey’s stay, she was very communicative and sent lots of photos of all the fun activities. Bogey looked like he had a great time and was so content when I picked him up. I will definitely be using Patrina again!
