I am NAPPS Certified, and dog and cat first aid and CPR certified. I have an active kennel license for Lake Chatuge Pet Sitting in Georgia. I take my four legged guests well-being very serious, and provide a home environment with love, exercise, playtime, and individualized attention. Your dog is part of my family and treated like my own! My house is a cage/crate free environment and dogs are welcome in every room. I have beds set up in all rooms but I often find my visitors on the couch. I do not crate dogs unless requested by the owner and the dog brings his crate with him. Some dogs feel more comfortable sleeping in their crate from home and it is part of their routine. I am experienced with administering medicine and caring for special needs and aging dogs. I have experience with dogs suffering from separation anxiety and go out of my way to make them feel comfortable, calm and secure. A typical day includes supervised playtime and a 3-5 mile walk. All dogs receive a bath as needed and I will continue any basic training and potty training while the dogs are staying with me. I will never leave your dog unsupervised in my backyard or let him/her off leash during our walks. Your dog’s safety, health and well-being are my top priority. I understand that leaving your dog to enjoy a vacation can be stressful; I provide daily updates with pictures or videos and do not mind phone calls to ease the pet parents mind. We love and welcome all dogs, from couch potatoes to rambunctious puppies, as long as they are not aggressive, and do not try eating our cat!
