Peggy was great! She had to take in my dog to the vet LAST MINUTE ON CHRISTMAS EVE but didn’t complain so much as a minute. She was also able to get my dog into healthier habits and she lost those last couple pounds we were worried about! Absolutely amazing. 10/10 recommend.

We are so happy we found Peggy to take care of our kitty boys! She was great with daily updates and pictures. Both cats loved her, even our snobby one!

Safety, trust & environment

When I have foster cats. I start them out in crates and gradually introduce them to my finished basement. When I am watching animals in the client's home, I like to speak with the client first and go over specific procedures for their pet. Then, will spend time sitting quietly in the room with the pet, so the pet can get to know me. The next step is working on handing the pet a small piece of food or treat that they are familiar with.

Information Peggy P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are special medical needs, how you administer their meds, and key words you use in your training. Also, specific behaviors that I need to be aware of.

A typical day

When I watch you pet, we will play games that will help them get exercise, and we will also get some quiet time, so they are calm and relaxed when I leave.
