Safety, trust & environment
The idea for my service came from my own experience: I could never find a place where my Maltese, Thor, truly felt at home—always close to someone, sleeping in bed, and never feeling lonely or anxious. That’s why I created a VIP, home-style experience where your dog is treated just like mine—with love, freedom, and respect for their routine. 💕🐾 In my home: Dogs are treated like family They’re welcome on the couch and bed Their routines are followed closely They receive consistent companionship and attention Walks, playtime, and affection are part of the day I provide a calm, structured, and supervised environment and carefully manage each dog’s compatibility to ensure a safe and positive experience. There is absolutely no judgment here—whether your pup is spoiled, has unique habits, follows a very specific routine, or occasionally has indoor accidents (pee or poop). I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel comfortable and secure. You’ll receive daily updates with photos and videos so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, safe, and loved.

Information Sandra S. would like to know about your pet
Please share your dog’s routine details, including feeding times, portions, treats, and any specific habits. Let me know: Furniture and sleeping preferences Crate habits (if any) Potty schedule and signals Reactivity triggers (doorbell, bikes, other dogs, etc.) Separation anxiety or noise sensitivity Medications, allergies, or health conditions Please also confirm vaccinations and flea/tick prevention, preferred walking equipment, and safe car-ride setup if needed.

If your dog is not fully house-trained, just let me know the plan—I’m happy to follow your instructions.
A typical day
A typical day is structured around your dog’s routine, comfort, and energy level. Mornings start around 6:30am with breakfast, fresh water, and a calm potty break. Throughout the day, I offer potty breaks approximately every 4 hours to keep your pup comfortable and on schedule. Daily activities include neighborhood walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of relaxation time. For dogs with higher energy levels, I provide longer walks on a nearby trail by the lake to help them exercise and stay mentally stimulated. Depending on your dog’s personality and your preferences, I may also include dog park visits, always ensuring it’s a safe and positive experience. The day is flexible and personalized—whether your pup prefers more activity or a calm, cozy environment, I adjust everything based on their needs and your instructions. Dinner is usually served around 5:00pm, followed by evening walks, potty breaks, and a relaxed wind-down with cuddles and your dog’s usual bedtime routine.

Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been treated as true family members. Beyond caring for my own dog, Thor, I’ve also looked after pets for friends, relatives, and clients, always providing the same level of love, attention, and responsibility. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’m experienced with: - Puppies (routine, potty training support, and early socialization) - Senior dogs (patience, comfort, slower pace, and gentle care) - Dogs with anxiety or separation needs - Picky eaters or dogs with specific feeding routines - Dog socialization in a safe, controlled home environment - I carefully introduce dogs based on temperament, energy level, and comfort, creating positive and stress-free social experiences when appropriate. - I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to follow their habits closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home.
