Happy to help while you are away

Hi there! I have owned a dog since I was 6 years old and I currently have two dogs that get spoiled like no other and would enjoy a friend to play with. My schedule is pretty flexible depending on your dog's needs, and I will make sure your dogs are taken outside regularly, played with and give you updates as much as possible to put your mind at ease while you are away. I understand how your dog's care is important when you are unable to take them along with you and how anxious it could be of leaving someone who is part of your family behind. I am a person who prefers to stay at home vs going out on the weekends and evening so your loved ones will be safe under my care. I have watched my friend's dogs and others and feel that I am more than capable of ensuring your dog's needs are met for the duration of their stay with me and will do my best to make things convenient for you if possible. Your pets are welcome to use my dog's toys but please let me know if they are quick destroyers of the fluffy/squeeky kind so I can put away the sentimental ones I leave laying around. Crating will only be necessary if they exhibit bad behavior such as destroying things, fighting, stealing food, separation anxiety, or incontinence issues. Dogs will be free to roam inside my home and have use of a dog door to my fenced backyard and I will teach them if they are willing to use it if they never have before. Your pets will have to be independent without concern, as I am not able to watch them 24/7 if that is the care you are requiring. Please let me know if your dog has any aggressive tendencies and I would need the pets I board to be socialized with other pets before bringing them into my home and around my dogs and others I may be watching. If you could please have your dog profile filled out, I would be more at ease learning about your dog before accepting and thanks for checking my profile out! Also, importantly I need to know and health issues/concerns current and past to ensure I am able to accommodate and take care of them comfortably. (Heart issues, breathing, injuries)

Would undoubtedly recommend 10/10. 😊 Our pup stayed with Tina for 2 weeks and we received constant updates and communication.

Tina is a great sitter, we really appreciate how well she treats our dog! She sends frequent photos and videos and our pup loves spending time with her.

Schedule

I am currently on a hybrid schedule for work and full access to outside when they need it. I make sure they are fed at the same time and if they are not motivated to eat, I try to add healthy toppings to motivate them to finish since I can't leave food laying around in case other dogs eat it.

Safety, trust & environment

If I am doing a drop in, I make sure your pets have fresh water and feed them. I will also play with them and give them love during my stay. If I am boarding your dogs, they stay with me, they pretty much have the run of the house unless they need to be watched over carefully. They have my backyard for full use of play and toys everywhere to enjoy.

Pets

A typical day

The neighborhood I live in is a good area to walk/run with your pets and has a dog park I can take them if you are ok with that. I enjoy playing with them inside my house and in the backyard and don't mind letting them play with my dog's toys but please feel free to bring your own. They will get their instructed feeding schedule and I will keep them busy and happy for the duration of their stay with me.

Does your dog have a fluffy stuffed animal kill instinct? Please let me know If your pet is not neutered and has a marking issue, unfortunately I will not be able to watch them Pets must be potty trained and if they tend to destroy and chew of things they shouldn't, please let me know and if you recommend crating them when unsupervised. Being social and getting along with other dogs is also a must since I have my own dogs and possibly others to care for. Please let me know about any special needs, and if I'm able to share my dog's healthy treats with your dogs. Please let me know if they have any special diets so that I could keep my pets food away and their temperament toward people and other dogs. Also, if your pet is known for digging, escaping outside please let me know.
