I am an early riser so I like to walk the dogs as the sun is rising and then again at dusk. I have a large fenced-in yard so the dogs have a lot of freedom, but I don't leave them alone outside. I am working on house projects so I am almost always around.

Safety, trust & environment

I am accepting up to two sibling dogs/cats for boarding in my home. I prefer crate-trained dogs as they feel more secure in their crates and it's less traumatic for them to be left at a stranger's house. I am flexible on this depending on the age of your dogs. Most of the time, they are free. I am finding that most dogs just follow me around since I am actively working on the house. The house is fairly new to me so there are many projects to be done!

Information Peggy F. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about your pet's personality, special needs and anything else you think I should know. How long do they usually walk for? How many walks per day? Of course, feeding and medication schedule is important too!

A typical day

Please note the heavy discount for a second pet (siblings only). This is a loving, safe haven for your pet(s) while you are away. I love the company of pets so I am active with your pet. I love to walk, especially with a dog or two! If the dog is especially energetic, I'll play tug of war, fetch or with bubbles in the yard as well. If you have a playful cat, I will exercise them. If not, I'll just love on them.

Pet care experience

I only take in one pet (and siblings) at a time. I think it's less traumatic for the pets if there are not other animals around when they are separated from their family. I do everything that I can to make the experience fun and loving. I love both cats and dogs for different reasons. I’ve had pets my entire life until recently. Since most of my pets died of old age, I am experienced with geriatric pets and their special needs as well. I follow your instructions on pet-care. I've watched many dogs and cats in different homes with completely different schedules and rules. I am an early bird so if you have dogs, I like to walk early before it gets too hot. But again, if your dog is used to sleeping in, I can work with his schedule. I do this for fun as well as extra income. I only take up to two pets at a time and they must be siblings. I may take in a third depending on circumstances. Just ask! I am mostly home with the pets. I even have my groceries delivered! I go the gym most mornings for about 1.5 hours. I started pet-sitting to fill the void after my last pet died. I’ve been pet and house sitting professionally around the world since 2016. I board dogs or cats in my home in Port Charlotte. I love to travel and am open to pet sitting in your home anywhere in the world, as long as it's somewhere I'm interested in. I am always interested in Eagle Rock/Glassell Park, CA, as that's where my son lives.

Peggy watched my two senior pups while we were overseas for the holiday. As always, they were so well-cared for and knowing they were with Peggy truly made my vacation a joyful and relaxing one. She is such a wonderful care-giver!

Peggy was amazing with our doggie. She sent so many photos and updates while we were away - it almost felt as if we never left her! We will definitely use Peggy again! I know Luna will be eager to go back.
