Paws-itively Perfect Care 24/7

Pet care experience

Hi my name is Tracee. I retired very early from healthcare In Pinellas County early In 2020 and decided to pursue another love of mine "caring for pups" I'm CPR Certified and I continue my online education In behavioral training for fur babies. I Specialize In separation and other types of anxiety using exercise, relaxation, massage and music to calm and redirect your special one. I am all about love, fun, safety and exercise. I'm also very strong and am able to handle and redirect a puller pup and redirect If needed. "Your pups will be on vacation while you are away. My goal Is to provide a loving and unique experience for your baby while In my care. I can also provide prescription/holistic medications given by you to your fur baby . "A little more personal" Living on a farm and caring for different breads of dogs and many other different fur buddies has been a unique passion of mine for most of my life. My love for pups started when I was very young as I was the kid running In the streets of Detroit dragging stray dogs home. This never sat well with my mother who was not a fan of pups LOL. I have been called the dog whisper by those who know me (I wear this title proudly) LOL.. Please use this code offer a 20.00 discount on your first booking with me. https://www.rover.com/sit/sit4uanytime

This was our first time using Rover for our two dogs and the peace of mind that Tracee provided was absolutely invaluable! She sent daily updates with pix and videos and was always so prompt if I had any questions or concerns. We would definitely recommend Tracee for anyone wanting care for their small pups- she is experienced in working with dogs that have anxiety and our dogs both seemed to really adore her!

Tracee was fabulous with my pet. I love the regular updates and pictures of how they are doing. I will definitely be using her again. Thanks again for taking such great care of my dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I will be caring for loved one as my own. Safety Is extremely Important to me so rest assure. I always allow a slow Introduction time (so your fur baby and I build that trust that Is so important) If your baby prefers to not cuddle I understand and give them space while still having a watchful eye. But I have to warn you even these pups usually warm up to me and feel comfortable at least laying close by me In no time. But I never force them. This Is my heart. You will be very happy with the care I provide from my home or If I'm offering drop In visits and you will receive tons of photos, videos and updates that I share with you daily. Please understand you do not need to respond unless I have a question. These updates and photos are here for you to enjoy when you have downtime and to see how happy and cared for your pup Is In my care. Lastly I will always answer any questions or concerns you may have while your pup Is In my care and In a fastly manner. I'm here for you and your pups and I understand how difficult It is to leave your loved one with someone you do not know. I truly get this. As I too have used Rover years ago prior to my pups passing whom I still dearly miss today and Is another reason why I love watching other pups (I'm not ready to get my own just yet)

Information Tracee H. would like to know about your pet

My training that I continue online offers up to date education and allows me to work well with unique personalities and challenges that may come up during their visit. Please share If you loved one Is not comfotable around men/ kids/pets etc while we are out walking, their favorite toys, any food allergies, any medical concerns, potty and sleep routines and any fears they may have so I can provide the best loving and safe environment for your fur babies. Warmest regards.

A typical day

We will walk around the neighborhood. But please If you prefer them to just have potty breaks "I understand some pups are older or feel more safe at home, I understand some pups are nervous seeing people or other pups, I understand some parents are concerned about their pups getting loose 'I want you to have as little stress as possible while you are away from your little one. We will play daily in and outside, If approved by you we will go on adventure walks and a trip to a non dog park (but only if approved by you) I promise. If they prefer and you do not want your pup to leave the property we will do exactly that I assure you. I will give tons of hugs and belly rubs. Most likely taking way to many photos ? Lol. Listening to different types of music Is a big hit while they are in my care. Engaging stimulation and downtime throughout the day.

I absolutely love spending all day at home with your pup during their visits! It gives me the chance to shower them with attention all day-I do not work from home. This allows your pups to have all the attention they choose to have throughout the day without distractions. So we have plenty of time to play inside as well as outside, going for walks, and If approved by you we will take an adventure to a nearby park that has no other pups around (just sniffs,run and play (I will always ask If this Is ok with you first) If your pup allows, there will be tons of cuddling, indulging in belly rubs and fetch Inside but If your pup prefers to not engage I will be close by to assure they are not alone and I am here for them If they choose. We will have down times just chilling on the couch or the cool floor listening to dog jazz (yes, that’s a thing) 😂 and it works wonders to relax after a stimulated activity! Your fur baby will be fed just like they are at home, following your exact schedule and preferences. We’ll take potty breaks as often as needed and even squeeze in some brushing or a bath as needed. I want to make sure your pup goes home as clean as they arrived, so no dirty paws on your end! I will follow your instructions to the letter and if something isn’t clear, I’ll always reach out to confirm on the app. I never just assume. Again being retired allows me to be spend almost all our time together unless I have an emergency or need to make a quick run to the store. Your pup will always be under my watchful eye. I want your pup to love coming to visit here In my pup friendly home. So I try to make their stay as close to their family lifestyle as possible. Please feel free to bring whatever your pup needs to allow them to feel safe and comfortable during their visit.
