Information Patti S. would like to know about your pet

I am a senior woman and love dogs. I have been taking care of dogs for over 14 years in my other home. I would prefer dogs that are reasonably low key. I am in a gated community. I would prefer drop offs as early as 7 AM. I may leave for short periods for appts. and grocery shopping or to lunch or dinner in the evenings. I only take dogs that are able to do a “Meet and Greet’” before a visit.

A typical day

Most of the dogs I dog sit for are pretty low key. They are allowed on furniture and I separate them from each other when feeding. They mostly just hang out with my little Enzo. I take them for small walks to relive themselves several times a day per their owners instructions.

Patti was great with our senior mini schnauzer. She is conveniently located and well set up for small dogs. We will definitely use Patti again when in the area.

Patti looked after our senior dog as if it were her own. Our dog enjoyed his time there, playing with Patti’s dog. ❣️

Patti was a godsend to us when we had to leave our small pet for a weekend to attend a family event in Seattle. We had just arrived in Palm Desert for a month, and knew no one and no place that we trust to take good care of our little pet. Patti responded and gave Sydney lots of TLC and genuine care during the time we were away. We are very grateful to her.
