Information Summer M. would like to know about your pet

To ensure your pet has the best possible experience, please let me know about their specific needs and preferences. Information about their age, energy level, breed, and any special requirements (like medications, dietary restrictions, or behavioral considerations) will help me create a personalized care plan. I'm also happy to accommodate your pet's favorite toys, treats, or routines.

A typical day

Your furry friends will have a paw-some time with me! For dogs, we can enjoy exciting adventures like fetching balls in the park, exploring new trails, or playing tug-of-war. We can also have indoor fun with puzzle toys or training sessions. For cats, I'll provide plenty of playtime with interactive toys, laser pointers, or cozy cuddle sessions. I understand that every pet is unique, so I'll tailor our activities accordingly. For senior dogs, we can enjoy gentle walks, calming massages, or simply relaxing together. For pets with special needs or those who are blind or low-sighted, I'll provide extra care and attention, focusing on low-impact activities like gentle play, sensory stimulation, or quiet companionship.

Pets

Dedicated and Loving Petcare

Pet care experience

Your pets’ staycation starts now! I'm a loving and highly experienced pet caregiver dedicated to providing truly personalized and comfortable care for your furry family members. My unique professional background significantly enhances the care I offer. As a former school teacher for over a decade, I bring exceptional patience, keen observation skills, and a structured yet adaptable approach to managing routines and understanding individual temperaments. My experience as a certified yoga and kids yoga instructor means I emphasize a calm, mindful presence – incredibly soothing for pets, especially those with anxiety or higher energy levels. I specialize in providing exceptional care for pets with diverse needs, including those requiring extra attention. Having lovingly cared for a blind senior dog for years, as well as others, I've honed my skills in gentle guidance, creating safe and calming spaces, meticulously managing routines, and administering medications with precision. I treat all pets like cherished family members, showering them with love and extra TLC. Whether it's playtime, comforting cuddles, or meticulously following their routine, my goal is always to ensure your furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved in a calm, secure, and joyful environment.

This is the second time in 2 weeks that Summer has kept our pets and we never have to worry about anything. She treats our pets and her home like they are her own, which we so appreciate. Thank you Summer for being so reliable and responsive!

Summer has stayed at our house with our pets once before. She is reliable and leves our house in great shape! I would recommend her if you want someone who truly goes the extra mile!

Summer was incredibly great at communication and keeping us updated on our boys. We have a 1 yr old pointer puppy who can be a handful and she handled him with ease and even mentioned how she took time to continue our training regimen with him. He was walked, played with, and loved just like we were home! What was the cherry on top was when we came home to our house better than when we left it! Will definitely have her back.
