Information Ryan R. would like to know about your pet

Personality, routines. An item that will get their attention if you need help with control. Such as a toy or treat. Places pup likes to go. Best way to get them to come inside if they are not responding to.your call.

A typical day

Socialization with other dogs if approved is good fun. Going down by a park, lake, or a place where the owner likes to take their pup can be great as well!

Pet care experience

Dogs are my life. I am a home based dog groomer by day! Your pet would be home with me at all times so they are never alone. I do not cage any pet unless it is for its own safety. The environment they are in is much more intimate as I only take a few dogs at a time. I have a large open yard and my house is completely set up for dog sitting and daycare. Regular walks are very important and happen often! Dogs receive regular walks as needed. I am available for short or long term stays. I have a lot of experience with all breeds as well as different dog personalities. Medications are no problem. I have very flexible pickup and drop-off times. I hope I may be of service to you. You can see references from my 15 years of service on my Rover profile.

Thank you for taking such good care of Theo! He came home happy after being able to play with other dogs for a few days. We will definitely book again!

Was flexible with pickup and drop off time. However, personally didnt like that I had to reach out after 24 hours for an update and never did receive any photos over the pet sitting duration. The pups also had a pretty strong smell and needed a bath immediately upon getting home.
