Life Long Pet Lover and Dog Mom

Pet care experience

I have rescued, raised, trained and loved dogs my whole life..I currently have a very friendly, fun loving 90 lb black labrador mix and 70 lb yellow labrador mix, both girls.. My kids are grown. Due to HOA restrictions, I can now only accept pets in the Campfield subdivision. I enjoy walking big lap dogs and little balls of energy. I work from home so I'm able to care for my pets. I enjoy grooming them, teaching tricks and generally making their lives fun, happy and healthy. I have experience reconditioning rescue dogs out of behaviors like neussence barking and begging at the table. I also like teaching tricks like shaking hands and play dead. I also bath and groom dogs. The only services I don't perform is mail clipping or hair cuts. I work from home a lot so I'm available for walks and lots of play time. If I have to go to my office, I will return regularly to let the dogs out. Pets run freely through my 2 story townhouse. We take frequent walks. Dogs are leashed during walks on a secure ladder or harness. I walk no more than 2 dogs at a time. I have crates for comfort and safety when I'm away. If the dog is not crate trained, I can enclose them in a bedroom for safety. There are dog toys all around and plenty of beds for lounging. Dogs are also welcome on the furniture.

Such a great sitter for our girl. She came through last minute for us during holiday and we were so very appreciative. She extended the stay with no problem and tended to our girl like she was her own. Luna enjoyed her stay and all the cuddles. I would rebook in a heartbeat.

Peggie was so wonderful with our dog Maggie. She sent us videos to let us know she settled in and kept us up to date with how she was doing. We would definitely use Peggy again!

Absolutely great sitter and we are so happy to have found her. She is beyond patient and has a process to get your pup acclimated to her home and her dogs. Lots of videos and I know my dogs are being well taken care of when they are there. She started working on behavior issues with our puppy while he was in her care. Her patience is unmatched and I am thankful we found her

Information Peggie J. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences but please be candid about risks and behaviors. I can work with bad behaviors. Every pet I've ever had was a rescue and I take them as they are. However, I need to know what to watch for, for my safety, my pet's safety and of course the safety and happiness of your fur baby.

A typical day

We walk around my neighborhood. I have dozens of safe pull and fetch toys (no rope toys) healthy treats and there are dog beds in every room. I reserve the right to spoil your pet.

I work from home sometimes and other days I go into the office. I'm gone for up to 10 hours but never more. My girls eat twice a day and there's a giant, shared water bowl. I'm home on the weekends. If I will be away, I mark myself as unavailable to sit.
