Peggy has taken care of my dog, Hugo, several times. She always takes great care of him. Hugo gets excited whenever he sees her at our house! She takes time to play with him, get him exercise, and of course snuggle him. I’m grateful to have a dependable dog sitter who truly cares about my boy. Highly recommend!

Before I provide care for your dog, it's crucial to gather as much information as possible about the dog's needs, behavior, and preferences to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all of us. Health Information: Any known medical conditions. Current vaccinations. Emergency contact information for the dog's veterinarian. Feeding Routine: The dog's regular feeding schedule. Dietary restrictions or preferences. Any food allergies. Behavior and Temperament: How the dog interacts with other dogs and people. Any signs of aggression or fear triggers. Comfort level with different environments, such as parks or indoor spaces. Any known behavioral issues or specific training commands the dog responds to. Exercise Needs: Preferred exercise routine and activity level (e.g., long walks, fetch, running). Any physical limitations that affect exercise. Socialization: The dog's history of socialization with other dogs. Any tendencies toward dominance or submissiveness. Allergies and Sensitivities: Any known allergies to environmental factors or specific substances. Sensitivities to noise, weather, or other stimuli. Emergency Procedures: What to do in case of a medical emergency. Contact information for the dog's owner or emergency contact person. Crate or Resting Preferences: Is your dog crate-trained or preference to open resting spaces? Any specific bedding or toys the dog likes to have. House Training and Bathroom Routine: The dog's typical bathroom schedule. Any cues the dog gives when it needs to go outside. Special Instructions: Any unique care instructions or habits specific to your dog. By gathering this information, I can better tailor my care and activities to meet your dog's individual needs and ensure a positive experience.
