Safety, trust & environment

We have several references throughout many years for you to talk with and help build our trust and safety for your pet either in our home or in your home.

Information Pennie M. would like to know about your pet

Any details or quirks you can provide for us in your notes or at the meet and greet will make your fur babies time with us even better!

A typical day

I wake up early every day. First thing we do is go outside. We follow your routine and schedule so that may include a walk or just a run around our large yard. If the weather is bad, we will play inside our large home. If allowed, we go for pup cones at Dairy Queen.

Fur babies are family! Fenced Yard

Pet care experience

We provide a safe and loving home for dogs. Your dog will be a member of our family and will receive a great deal of attention and affection. We will treat your furry baby just like we would want one of our furry babies to be treated. We have a large fenced in yard, safe and quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for walking and large open grass areas close to our home for off-sidewalk fun. We will tailor your pet care experience to exactly the way you want it to keep your dog on schedule and in the same routine he or she is used to having in his or her own home. Pennie is a teacher and there is at least one caring adult at home at all times.

Pennie took excellent care of our senior dog who had been recently diagnosed with diabetes. She sent updates and pictures – he was in very good hands and we would definitely use her again. Thank you Pennie!

It usually takes some time for our two pups to warm up to new people but not with Pennie and her son. We had a great first experience and are grateful to have found them. Highly recommend!

Pennie took great care of Leo. This is the third time he has stayed with her and we’ve always had a wonderful experience. She’s reliable and easy to communicate with.
