Safety, trust & environment

I have an unfenced yard and one senior little ole lady shih tzu who is extremely low maintenance and very sweet. She has free range of the house, but I do crate her when I'm away from home for periods of time.

Information Tina P. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know beforehand the breed and temperament of the dog, activity level, any special needs or illnesses that they need care for. Also, I've had experience with small to medium sized dogs; extra large dogs are a consideration, but I would need to know their activity level and temperament before accepting a larger breed dog.

A typical day

I'm open to what the owner prefers for their pet....walks around the block, back yard play time, trail walks, indoor play, or just quiet companionship for them. I am open to what you prefer for your dog and what they enjoy.

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Tina. I live in Waconia, and I'm looking to care for your dogs, for walks, quiet snuggles, or just a good run around the back yard. Will house/pet sit as well. I've had 3 dogs in my life, and 20+ years of playtime, laughs, and bonding with my "kids" as I call them. I currently have a 15 year old shih tzu/mix who is my baby. In the past, I've taken care of one of my dogs, who had many health issues, so I'm experienced with senior or special needs animals. I've administered meds (pills), spent many days at the vet, and am very sensitive to ill animals and senior animals who just want to rest or have low key play. I have experience with puppies as well who are looking to just have fun! I'm very responsible and dedicated to my animals, and would be the same with yours. Give me a try! =)

Tina was awesome in taking care of Mira. She keep us updated by text and pictures of what Mira was doing. She was responsive and flexible to any requests we had. Wonderful experience to have her take care of our morkie for the weekend.

Tina is the best! The moment I met her I knew our Murphy was in great hands. Tina is very responsible and very caring. She is a dog owner also, and her pets are her "babies"! I highly recommend Tina and we will certainly be calling her again.

I have had Tina watch my dog numerous times over the years. My dog loves her and is always excited to see her. She is very warm and compassionate with any animal she encounters. She is very patient and kind and has a lot of love for animals in general. I trust her completely with my dog and I feel she would be an exceptional caregiver.
