Great communication throughout our girl’s stay with Sean! We loved the picture updates and felt that she was being well taken care of while we were away!

Sean gets 5 paws up! 🐾 Teddy the Samoyed had an absolute blast staying with you. You’ve been fantastic, and your clear communication made the booking process a breeze. We’ve owned dogs for many years, and we were all a bit apprehensive about Teddy’s first stay away from home with anyone since he’s only 17 months old. However, he waltzed right into your home without a second thought. He knew he was in good hands and that he would be well taken care of. He came home like nothing had happened to him. He was very well rested and relaxed when he got home. Thank you for your compassion and care. We’ll definitely be staying again!

Sean was easy to communicate with, always very responsive to messages, and flexible to accommodate scheduling factors. I appreciated his updates while Jenna was in his care and the overall ease of the process with him. I also really appreciate that he got Jenna out for walks and has a fenced in backyard that she was able to play in.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety and trust in every aspect of pet care, whether in my home or yours. In my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure spaces for play and relaxation. I keep harmful objects out of reach and maintain a clean, comfortable space for your pets. When caring for pets in your home, I adhere to your specific instructions and routines to ensure your pet feels secure and comfortable. I am attentive to their needs, provide plenty of exercise and playtime, and maintain a high standard of cleanliness. My goal is to create a trusting relationship with both you and your pets, ensuring they are happy and well cared for in a safe environment.

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged and happy with a variety of fun activities. Depending on your pet's preferences and energy levels, here are some activities we can enjoy together: Walks and Runs: Exploring local parks and trails for plenty of exercise and fresh air. Playtime: Engaging in games like fetch, tug-of-war, and frisbee to keep them active and entertained. Training Sessions: Reinforcing positive behavior with basic commands and tricks. Interactive Toys: Using puzzle toys and treat-dispensing games to stimulate their minds.

No preference on breed. I would like to know how the dog behaves around other animals prior to any walks. I've worked with small and large breeds, and both are great!
