Pet care experience

Excellent care for your fur baby.

I have always had a great compassion for animals, I love them all! I have had a few pets (cats and dogs) through the years that came with medical issues which has given me a lot of experience giving medications. I have 4 dogs right now, 2 of them are from trying to foster Millie and Lil Bitti whom are very bonded. So they are what they call my “foster fail”. I won’t be trying that again as much as I would like to help with the rescues.

We've been back many many times. Lola loves going to Penny's. She gets so excited in the car when she sees the house and where she will see all of her furry friends there. Penny has little dogs that are Lola's size and she just loves it there. Highly recommend!

Penny is the only person we would ever consider having our dog while we are away. We know that while he is in her care, we never have to worry about anything. In our books, Penny is the best .

Charlie was well taken care of and Penny gave great daily updates along with photos which is always appreciated! He looked very comfortable cuddled up in blankets, as is his preference! Penny is very easy to work with and is very accommodating.

Schedule

I will be at home to take care of your pet for most of the time. I may leave the house for a couple of hours for an appointment, but try to avoid while I am pet sitting. If your pet is crate trained, I do have extra crates if you prefer not to bring your own. Crate trained is not a requirement for your pup.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard for plenty of fun and exercise. I always go outside with the dogs, never unsupervised. They will get low calorie snacks throughout the day, and 1 dental treat at bedtime if allowed. My dogs, as well as most of my clients dogs are small breeds and prefer to be with smaller dogs. It would be best to do a meet and greet to introduce the pups beforehand when possible. We want your pups, as well as ours to feel safe, happy, and at home.

Pets

A typical day

We go in and out all day into our big fenced in yard. So, lots of potty breaks even in bad weather conditions. We love summer and spend many hours outside. We will run and play, explore, or just hang out on the patio. We have lots of toys to play with inside too. We will go for walks around the neighborhood if it is not too cold or hot. I have a nice pet stroller for those that love to go out on walks but physically unable to do so. Just let me know if that is the case.

Let me know how I can make your pet feel at home. What are your pets likes and dislikes, how does your pet interact with other animals, any food aggression? Where does your dog usually sleep during the night? What is your pets food schedule and amount of food daily? Any allergies? Is your pet allowed on furniture and/or allowed on the bed?
