Pet care experience

I have been a responsible and loving pet parent my whole life. I mainly take on rescues and currently have two senior dogs I adopted at ages 12 and 13. All animals are unique, and I enjoy learning each one’s personality. I specialize in senior dogs and those preferring a calm environment for daycare and boarding.

Yvonne is the absolute best. My girl loves her. She’s so kind and understanding with my hectic schedule.

Yvonne always goes the second mile in being there for her customers-peeps and pups. Her love and dedication to my Golden Retriever Gideon, is remarkable.

Information Yvonne R. would like to know about your pet

I prefer not to take dogs that are dominant/alpha or aggressive. I have two small senior dogs and their safety is my highest priority. Please let me know when requesting a booking if there are special needs for your pet, such as physical limitations or food restrictions.

A typical day

There are usually two walks a day, more if someone has extra energy to burn. I attempt to walk different streets each time so the dogs get all the neighborhood smells, but if they want to head to a repeat spot, I won’t argue. There are field trip days when we load into the car and go to Langus Riverfront Park or Lowell Riverfront Park for extra steps and smells.
