Pet care experience

Your dog will feel safe & loved.

I’m a mother of 3 grown boys and a retired pharmaceutical sales rep. Now I’ve decided to do something I love- play with dogs! I’ve had Great Danes, a Siberian Husky, a mini Aussie and 2 Yorkies -so I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes- I love them all. I’ve been through many obedience courses with my dogs and understand the basics of dog training. I mainly just care about making sure your pup feels secure and loved. I am an avid runner so I can help your dog burn off some excess energy but I am just as happy to go out for a casual stroll, play a little fetch or visit the local dog park and give them some company while you’re away for the day. When they are boarded with me, they become part of the family.

Tricia was so great for us and took great care of our kitties! We have a bit of a unique situation at the moment with very specific instructions and Tricia was so accommodating and caring. Will absolutely have her check in on our cats again if she is able to. Thanks again, Tricia!

Schedule

I am a full-time pet sitter. My kids are grown and out of the house and my retired husband helps with my own pets at home so I have plenty of time to commit to taking care of my pet customers needs.

Safety, trust & environment

When I'm visiting pets at their home I follow the instructor given to me. The same applies to when the pets are at my house; if they're allowed on the furniture and on the beds at their own home, then they are at mine!

Pets

We play in our big, fenced backyard and go on walks or runs in the neighborhood. If approved by the owners, we can go to local dog parks, on car rides, enjoy treats and of course lots of love and attention.
