Information Veronica M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any social issues I need to watch out for or any food or toy aggression. One side of my fence is only 4 feet so let me know if they need to be watched while outside (I never leave them outside unsupervised for more than a couple of minutes regardless)!

A typical day

It's a pretty cozy around here! I start the day early by letting them out in the back yard while I make coffee. I let them back in and they usually go back to sleep while I read, then I'll have breakfast (for me and them) and then go on a 40ish minute walk. I start work when I get home but I take another 15 minute walk at lunch and then another after work or dinner. I'm home with them all day and let them outside as needed.

Pet care experience

I grew up with animals and have had dogs my entire adult life. I currently have two very friendly huskies, 7 and 5 years of age. They have both been around dogs of all ages, sizes, and demeanors and are very respectful of social cues. I fostered dogs for Oregon Dog Rescue for a couple of years during COVID. I work from home so am here most of the day with the dogs, have a fully fenced back yard, and take multiple walks per day. As a dog owner, I completely understand the anxiety that can come from leaving your pets for a trip so I communicate consistently and send lots of pics! Our pets are family!

Veronica is great! She worked hard to help my nervous girl feel comfortable and sent me photos and updates along the way, very responsive and communicative both during the booking/planning process and while we were away. I would not hesitate to recommend her or to book with her again.

Veronica was great with our two dogs. She has a calming manner and our nervous border collie when away from home appeared totally at ease in the sweet photos that she sent us. And I’m sure our husky enjoyed playing with her huskies. They all made a good pack. 😊
