Pet care experience

Stay at Home Pet Lover+ Vet Helper

Thanks for stopping by. We look forward to meeting you and your beloved furry family member. I have 20+ years of experience caring for pets. My teen has studied vet tech and will help me care for your pet. So you will get our services as a 2 for 1. She enjoys doing pet massages that she's learned. I am home all day and we will ensure your pet gets lots of play time, outdoor time and of course, snuggles. BOARDING *Your pet will have the run of the house and will be treated like family. I'm home all day, so there's lots of time for belly rubs, cuddles as well as plenty of outdoor time. I introduce all pets in a neutral setting in a safe manner so that all pups feel welcome and safe during their stay, despite it being a new environment for them. DOGGY DAYCARE *We can't wait to hang out with your pups and their soon-to-be new pup friends *To make sure all dogs have fun and are safe, it's important to ascertain your pup's temperament so we will ask detailed questions and discuss drop off procedures *Weekday - 9 hrs of care *Weekend/Holiday- 8 hrs of care -Additional hours/schedule changes can be accommodated upon request

Schedule

Pet owners: Please indicate any special needs, habits or things to observe. I want to ensure I'm aware of how to best take care of your pet.

A typical day

We plan to play, have fun and make sure your dog has plenty of exercise. We go outside a lot - both in our large yard and local walks where we go off exploring. Also, my teen has learned dog massage and temperament training in her pursuit of vet tech work and will gladly work with your dog.

I want to know your dog's needs and overall temperament and what kind of environment makes your pet thrive. Is your dog shy, reserved, feisty, dominant or something else? How is your dog around other dogs and unfamiliar humans? What are their typical habits, behaviors and likes/dislikes? All of these insights will help me take the best care of your beloved pet.
