Information Phyllis A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs or is on any medication. I have 12 years experience as a veterinary technician. Is he nervous or anxious? I will soon put him at ease.

A typical day

We will get plenty of exercise. And maybe a treat or two. Does your dog like to swim? I live on a lake. Does he/she have a vet appointment? I’d be happy to help out with that. Or maybe a ride to doggy daycare or playgroup. Just ask.

Phyllis does a wonderful job! My dog loves staying at her house. I am very thankful for all she does for my dog when we are away!

Phyllis is a wonderful person and took good care of our dog Charlie! We had good communication thought the entire process. She send me lots of pictures and I could tell my dog had a great time. I will definitely become a repeat customer. Thank you!

This was our first time leaving our two dogs with Phyllis, and everything went great from the meet-up to the stay. Phyllis is very quick to respond by text, and it was easy to set everything up. She asked good questions about the dogs to make sure she knew how to care for them. One of our dogs has a dangerous allergy, and Phyllis was very attentiver and careful about this. We'd defintely work with Phyllis again and reccommend her.

We left our pup with Phyllis for 10 days, and it could not have gone any better! He got some play time with other dogs and a long walk every day. She sent pictures and updates whenever we asked for them. We felt our pup was in very good hands, and we didn't have to worry at all while on our vacation. We would definitely trust her with our dog again. Thanks, Phyllis!
