"This human gets us!" ~Dogs

Pet care experience

Hello! Thank you for stopping by. My name is Telma and I'm a software engineer who works from home... this means I spend most of my week working at my home office, which guarantees that I will be present to care for your pup. I have a 3-year-old cocker spaniel who is very calm. He has few certifications by the AKC including therapy dog. He enjoys being around other dogs. I take only 1 family at the time and 2 dogs (from the same family) at the most. This is to ensure that the dogs get along and that I can care for each. I don't want to turn my house into a kennel by taking 8, 10 or more dogs at the time! My house has a doggy door to the backyard and is fully fenced. I can provide food bowls, treats, beds and toys. You can bring anything else you think your dog may need (its own food, its own toys, its own bed, etc.). You should know I have a pool in the backyard so if that's a concern, a meet & greet is a must! All the dogs I hosted have had no issues with it, their instinct is flawless when it comes to water, but I understand the concerns some parents may have. I hope we get to meet your dog(s) soon!

Telma was an amazing sitter! I was nervous leaving my puppy for the first time but she made me feel extremely comfortable and I received multiple picture updates throughout my dogs stay. When I picked him up you could tell he was well taken care of and she even gave him a bath before I got there and he smelt wonderful! Will definitely use Telma in the future! I highly recommend her!

Dogs came home happy, received pictures of there daily walks and texts on what and how they were doing. Coming home the plan was delayed almost 8 hours and I was able to pick them up the next day. Finally found someone who I trust with my dogs, will definitely use Telma again!!

Information Telma F. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has separation anxiety: PLEASE let me know! I had owners hide this from me knowing that their dog had issues being away from home, and it resulted in a difficult experience for the dog, for my own dog and for me. If your dog will become agressive, cry nonstop, scratch doors, destroy things or try to run away because s/he's away from home, please let me know during the meet and greet to see what we can do to calm him/her down.

A typical day

Your dog will play in the backyard and with my dog. We have lots of toys that we're happy to share! We also go for walks around the block in the evenings.
