Dog Sitter Next to Martin Lake

Hey there! Ready to give your furbaby a paw-some time! My boyfriend and I share our cozy home off Lakeview Ridge East, and we're both avid pet lovers. Living close to the lake means your dog gets to enjoy scenic walks and catch glimpses of active wildlife! Our fenced backyard is a little haven for small dogs – perfect for a game of chase or a relaxing session of bird and squirrel watching in our garden. They will get to meet Eldri, my sweet Yorkie – she's a social butterfly who adores everyone, whether they have fur, feathers, or are just friend-shaped. Eldri's friendly, welcoming, and loving demeanor will make your fur baby feel right at home. She's updated on all her shots (Bordetella, Canine Influenza, Lepto, DHP) and gets monthly Flea/Tick Prevention. With 18 years of experience, I've honed my pet-sitting skills through caring for my own beloved pets and lending a hand at animal shelters. From cats and dogs to the tiniest critters like rats, gerbils, hamsters, mice, ferrets, and guinea pigs – I've got it covered. Can't wait to have a blast with your furkid, exploring the wonders of wildlife by the lake and making them feel cozy and loved. Give me the chance to shower them with love and care. 🐾

Rachel was able to watch Pippen for a few hours on very short notice. She is the best.

Love this family. Pippen gets so exciting the minute we pull into their driveway. He can’t wait to see them. So sweet.

Pets

A typical day

I'm all about tail-wagging fun! Your pets will enjoy a variety of engaging activities tailored to their preferences. Whether it's energizing walks by the lake, playtime in the fenced backyard with Eldri, my friendly Yorkie, or interactive games indoors, we'll make sure to keep those furry tails wagging. Dive into our treasure trove of toys for toy-filled adventures, and Eldri is more than happy to share the joy. From relaxing moments of bird and squirrel watching to cozy cuddle sessions, your pet's happiness is at the forefront. And of course, ample affectionate attention is on the agenda to make sure they feel not just cared for, but truly cherished during their stay.

I'd love to learn all about your furkid's preferences, quirks, and daily routines! Whether they have specific likes or dislikes, unique bathroom routines, or if they're outgoing or a bit shy, knowing these details helps me tailor their experience for maximum comfort. My goal is to create a safe and positive space where your pet feels completely at ease. I wholeheartedly embrace all kinds of dogs and cats – there's no discrimination here. Every furry friend is a cherished part of our diverse Earth, and I'm excited to provide them with the love and care they deserve!
