Me and ' Furbo Dog Camera'!

Pet care experience

Your 'fur baby' will be supervised 24/7 because I have a Furbo Dog Camera . I can observe , video, take photos, send treats, two- way communicate and give all that special attention. I send communication to all my customers though i often use the customers' personal cell phone thus the 30% communication rate on Rover. So, my Yorkie 'Honey Jack' died about two and a half years ago. We had lived together for over 13 years. We did everything together. I would put him in his Brighton bag and he was quiet and peaceful as long as we were together. We would take long fun walks together and when he couldn't do that anymore he would ride in his stroller. He was my " little boy" . I miss him a lot. Ready to love love love a doggie that needs my attention. I am retired so I have the time and desire to take care of another dog. My home is great for dogs cause I am on the ground floor and there is a great place to walk them. There is a park near by if your dog likes long walks. My floors and furniture are all "dog friendly" and clean up nicely if need be. I am often home all day and would enjoy a companion to spend it with. I have a large lanai on a pond so there are many birds, squirrels, rabbits, turtles etc. for natural entertainment. I am a peaceful loving person and dogs relate to that. The dogs that I babysit feel comfortable from the beginning. I usually spend the first 24 hours non stop with the fur baby and stick close to normal rituals so they feel secure. When I do leave I activate the dog camera and can interact with your baby immediately. I have a male and female doggie stroller if your dog has walking issues or just likes to be pampered. Let's have a meet and greet and you and your doggie make your own judgement? Looking forward to meeting you both! I do not accept cats. Sorry

Our dog, Miko, had a wonderful stay with Sandra. We received daily updates with pictures. She was great to work with. We felt comfortable leaving Miko while we were gone on vacation.

We just picked up our dog from a long weekend with Sandra. He is a special needs dog, and needs extra love and patience. He looks so happy and calm. I am glad we chose Sandra!

Sandra was wonderful! She kept me regularly updated about how Sammie was doing and the frequency of walks, feedings, naps, etc. I felt like Sammie fit right in with Sandra and can confidently recommend her.

Information Sandra F. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences, however I live in a condo so barking a lot doesn't work for me or my neighbors.☺️ I believe dog barking is appropriate when they alert me someone is at the door or they see something interesting while on my lanai or they have something to say. I work with many rescued dogs and provide them with a feeling of being loved and respected.

A typical day

I try my best to keep 'my dogs' routine as close to their parents routine as possible. I stay with the dogs for the first 24 hours to provide a feeling of safety. I like to do many things in my own home and don't have a need to go out and about a lot while I am dog sitting. I get all of my 'stuff ' done before the dog arrives. Since I only watch one dog at a time usually, your dog will get my undivided attention. Dogs love that! Who wouldn't? I have an open heart and dogs can feel that. I talk to your dog as I would a good friend. They love that too! Dogs bring me joy and I try my best to have them feel joy too.
