Dog Pro, Big Yard, Old Pups Welcome

Pet care experience

Dogs are beloved family here. They'll enjoy a roomy, smoke-free, dog-loving home with a huge, fenced, back yard, supervised play, and plenty of walks. I work from home and take the care of your beloved pup very seriously and professionally, and love every minute of it! When your dog is with me, s/he is loved and adored like my own. I also specialize in older and senior dogs.

Robin has watched my sweet pup several times over the past few years and she is by far our favorite (and the best!) dog sitter!! She truly cares for my dog like she's her own and we always feel comfortable knowing she's in Robin's capable and loving care. Thank you!!

Robin was absolutely fantastic! She stayed in touch daily with photos and updates and was quick to reply. She made my dog feel right at home from the moment he walked in. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.

I’m so happy with Birdie’s stay with Robin. She took excellent care of her, and I could tell by the photos and at the time of pick up that Birdie loved her stay. Thank you for taking such great care of her!

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs enjoy walks as well as fetch or play in a large, securely-fenced back yard. My senior dog, Huck, is pretty mellow, but more active dogs have fun here, too. Play time is supervised and I never charge extra for walks or special care. If they need special food, supplements, meds, etc., it's no problem.

Information Robin A. would like to know about your pet

To ensure safety, I do not accept intact nor aggressive dogs, nor females in heat. I also require dogs to be housebroken. ***If your dog has separation anxiety and cries or barks when unaccompanied, my apologies, but I am unable to board them, as this causes a lot of stress for the others. Likewise, if your dog has shown aggression with humans or other dogs, I can not accept them for safety reasons. Thank you.*** Although they are always under close care, I prefer that your dog have identification on the collar (and/or is microchipped) as an extra safety measure. I require that vaccinations, including kennel cough prevention and flea treatment, are up to date. Please message me so we can discuss your pup and any questions you may have! I'm always happy to chat about your dog's specific needs, preferences and routine. How does your dog get along with others? Is he/she crate trained? (Either way is fine!) Any separation anxiety or behavioral challenges? Housebroken? Feel free to share any specifics about your dog so we can ensure a great stay.

A typical day

Walks and Fun Time: Dogs get observed play time in the big, fully fenced back yard. I believe in walks, too (included, of course!). Getting out with the dogs is a FUNdamental part of the day. Older dogs who need short or slow walks are beloved pack mates and get special engagement activities if they can't do walks. We play, walk, fetch, and water bowls are always refreshed. Of course, there's rest time, too, and plenty of dog beds for snoozing.
