Pet care experience

Mimi and Pop's Pup Playhouse!

I've loved animals from a young age. It all started with black labs for duck hunting. I was a vet assistant and horseshoer for many years. I've had dozens of personal pets throughout my life, and am now looking to love on and help care for other people's furry friends.

Both my girls came home happy and healthy. Sidney was so accommodating to changes in our schedule.

Sidney and his wife did a great job with our Brownie girl. They had a great set up that allowed plenty of time inside and outside safely - as she loves to run and is a big dog. Would definitely recommend.

Sidney always takes very good care of my dog. I would recommend him. I will definitely use him again.

Sidney and his wife were great with our two French Bulldogs who can be feisty. They put me at ease and I knew they would be taken care of. They have a secure yard with a high privacy fence. I would highly recommend them and will book with them again.

Schedule

I am recently retired and need something to occupy my time and give me purpose. When thinking about what I'm passionate about, animals is what is first to come to mind. I am up early and start my day with a walk. I am home most everyday and have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your pets needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced, clean yard with a covered patio. Plenty of space to roam and run. There is a water hose for plenty of water available. I have a glass back door looking outside. I can bring them inside the house as needed.

A typical day

We would go on walks, people watch in the park, play fetch. I enjoy a good cat nap, so a fluffy friend to cuddle with me on the couch, or in my chair, would be great!

I would love to get to know your animal personally with the owner there and be instructed on how to best serve your dog. I would always want to know your animal's personality, likes/dislikes, preferred schedule, etc. I will always try to accommodate all the owner's needs and wants.
