Safety, trust & environment

I only do care at the pet parent's house, and I follow the guidelines the pet-parent sets because routines are important for consistency. I will always respect your home.

Information Pennie A. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any anxieties or special needs. Does your pup need meds? Do you feed your pet in a special way? What treats are allowed?

A typical day

I love to get to know the pets I take care of by checking out their toys to see what their favs are. It's helpful when you tell me your pup's likes and dislikes. I love to take walks, and I look forward to walks. Is there a dog park within walking distance? Does your dog enjoy interacting with other dogs?

Penny did a great job. She house sat for our dog and cat and did a wonderful job. She sent us photos and kept us updated on how they were all doing. She was very respectful of our home and our pets, and we have already booked her for another much longer visit in a month.

Pennie was a delight. Our senior animals were well cared for in their own home. I feel less stressed about going out of town now.
