Beautiful Fenced Backyard &dog park

Pet care experience

We have a lovely, dog friendly house in a great neighborhood. Also, we live just a few blocks from a wonderful dog park. We have a dog loving family of three; myself, Sara (25), boyfriend of seven years, Dean (29), and our lovely furry son, Ziggy (1). Ziggy is a lab mix and not only LOVES other dogs, he is fascinated and sweet with ALL OTHER ANIMALS (horses, cows, chickens, etc.). Ziggy is extremely spoiled and is taken on multiple walks per day, has every dog toy they make, and loves his huge fenced backyard. Our pup comes absolutely everywhere with us. He loves having playmates and is often sad after they are gone. We plan on getting another pup, but are just waiting for his perfect match. We would love to host dogs of all varieties because we are confident that Ziggy can get along with any dog. We have had much experience with dog sitting and have never had any issues. About this sitter: I am a lover of all animals. I am a registered nurse, so I guess you can say I tend to gravitate towards caregiving roles. Currently, I am only working two days a week. I have one dog, Ziggy, whom is a lab mix. He is extremely spoiled. He goes for two walks a day and plays all day long (inside & outside in his large fenced yard). He loves all other animals and loves having company. Why I love dog sitting My entire family and I have been dog lovers for as long as I can remember. We got our first pup when I was just two years old. When I was 11, I put up signs for grooming, basic training, bathing, and walking services. My adolescent business for pups had then quickly caught on throughout our neighborhood. From there on out, my passion of caring for dogs becomes stronger every day. Meet my pets No other pets About my yard We have a very large fenced backyard(pictures are available on my profile). ALTHOUGH OUR BACKYARD IS FENCED, I WILL NEVER LEAVE A DOG UNATTENDED OUTSIDE BY ITSELF. The fence is a 7 foot wooden fence that is escape proofed. The yard is a flat terrain with only a few small bushes. Our dining room has a large set of french doors that lets out to a big covered patio that then pours out onto the fenced backyard. My experience administering medication I am extremely comfortable administering medication due to the fact that I practice it in my career as a registered nurse. Also, I have had pets in the past that I have had to administer medication to.

Sara was the greatest dog sitter I could have asked for. My dog (Nyx) stayed with Sara and her dog (Ziggy) for a week and they all had a great time. Nyx and Ziggy had a great time playing, and Nyx had a great time cuddling with Sara and her boyfriend. Sara was very friendly and professional, and even dropped Nyx off at my house after my long drive back home from Massachusetts. I will definitely use Sara again, I'm sure Nyx misses Ziggy already!

Sara and Dean were awesome dog sitters for Chewy while we were away. He had a great time and even learned some good behavior/better habits along the way. Definitely would choose them if we go away again.

We contacted Sara to watch Winston when our sitter fell through because of an emergency. Winston had so much fun with Ziggy (Sara's dog) and Sara, that he fell asleep on the way home! Winston seemed very happy upon our return and well taken care of. We were happy that he had a friend and sometimes a couple others (Sara's family got to meet Winston too!) since he does not have any (doggy) friends at home. I will be calling Sara again to take care of Winston!!

Lovely home, nice fenced in yard. My 2 big dogs were well taken care of by Sara. No worry about Kennel cough or fleas as is usual with a kennel. Recommend highly.

Information Sara T. would like to know about your pet

There is not a dog in the world that I don't absolutely adore. I am very good with training and teaching tricks. Before I sit a dog I would like to know their daily routines, commands that they know, any health issues, how much exercise they require per day, and any problematic traits that may occur in a new surrounding.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We live in a lovely dog-friendly neighborhood that we walk around. Also, there is a park within walking distance. On top of that, there is a dog park that is less than a five minute drive from our house. I am very passionate about keeping the pups that I care for active during their stay. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can sleep however he/she most comfortably sleeps at home. We have a cage if that's what you prefer. We can also get a dog bed for the floor at the end of our bed if you wish. We also allow them on the couch and bed (as long as there is no history of accidents on or chewing of the couch). Time I'll spend with your dog Whatever days that I have marked as "available" on my calendar, I plan on spending 100% of that time with your dog (such as walks, playing in our very large fenced backyard, and possible even teaching him/her new tricks).
