Any dog. All dogs.

Pet care experience

**UPDATE**. I am back in Hampton, Va. having returned from Ixtapa, Mexico, volunteering at a dog sanctuary/rescue I have extensive experience with house/dog sitting. I have over 20 years of experience and plenty of references. I spent two months at The Good Life Boarding Kennels in Gaybrook, Ireland, Walking, feeding, cleaning, all things dog. Before that I was in Clonmellon, Ireland, taking care of 2 Dalmations, Rottie, mama chihuahua and 3 of her babies. A stud horse and daily care of 15 mares. In Virginia, my regular customers consist of an Akita, Boston, chiweenie dog one household. 3 rescue pittie mix one household. Bull mastiff. Lab and pittie one house hold. Several small dogs. I am experienced in giving meds and different temperaments and comfortable with all dogs. No matter size. Thanks

Robin took amazing care of my babies. Both are special needs seniors that require a lot of care and she treated them like her own. I had very little worry leaving my babies in her care I will definitely as her to take care of them next time! Thanks for everything Robin!

Robin is the best dog sitter I have ever had! She treats my dog bully like a family member and takes care of him well beyond expectations. She handles his significant health issues with ease and deals with all his quirks and my concerns! I love knowing that when I am away he is loved and cared for as if I was home!

Robin is amazing! She looked after my pups at my place for 4 days and sent me plenty of pictures and good communication. You could tell she loved my pups and they definitely loved her. Will definitely use her again!

Robin is such a good and attentive sitter. I have had her sit for my dog Charlie a few times now and she has been amazing. She is active and fun and Charlie loves his playdates with her. I would recommend her highly!

I only sit in your home. I do overnights and extended stays. I will take care of your furbabies however you deem fit. Keep them in their routine and make sure your absence is easier for them.

Information Robin P. would like to know about your pet

I want and need to know their usual temperament no matter what it is. For everyone’s safety and comfort it’s important and necessary to know up front if there are any quirks or personality bursts lol. Also any and all medications. Any triggers. Truthful information I can work with. Surprises out of typical behavior causes unnecessary and unfavorable situations for both Doggo and me.

A typical day

Whatever your dogs needs are and whatever they are used to doing. The park. The beach. Whatever they normally like. I can also introduce them to new activities if you want. Or we can just lay around and watch tv.

I do not work outside of dog sitting right now so my time can be totally committed to the fur kiddos and the life they live. Most of my clients are repeat clients I have been venturing outside of my area on the map. I have my own transportation and am willing to travel up to 3 hours away from my home location. Further if it is worth my travel and expenses. Thanks for looking.
