I always try to keep things as close to your dog’s normal routine as possible so they feel relaxed in their own home. I stick to feeding times, walks, play, and bedtime habits because consistency helps dogs settle and reduces stress. Safety is a big priority for me. I double-check doors, gates, and surroundings and stay mindful of anything a curious dog could get into. Cleanliness matters too. I tidy feeding areas, clean up after walks, and keep the space comfortable. Dogs get plenty of exercise, play, and attention based on their energy level. Some want long walks and games, others just want company and cuddles, and I follow their lead. I’m comfortable giving medication and keeping an eye on any health needs. I send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. Most of all, I make sure they feel safe, cared for, and not lonely while you’re away.
