60 minutes of playing, hiking, and/or swimming! Your dog is matched with other dogs of similar energy level and play style, and groups are limited to 4-6 dogs to ensure safe supervision and quality care. ($30 first dog, $20 additional dog from the same household)
Private Dog Walks
30 minutes of private one-on-one time, either on-leash or off-leash ($35 first dog, $15 additional dog from the same household)
Home Visits
Whenever you can’t be there, home visits can ensure your pet is fully taken care of. Whether to check on your pet’s well-being, give your puppy an extra potty break, feed your pets dinner and give them a walk when you’re working late, administer medications, as an alternative to overnight pet sitting, or simply to give your pets some extra company ($30 for 30 minutes)
Doggy Adventures
Special long outings to some of the Bay Area's world-class doggy destinations. I take groups to Point Isabel, Fort Funston, Stinson Beach, and--on the rare days when they open their swimming lagoon to dogs--Spring Lake Park in Sonoma County. Call if you would like to book your own private Doggy Adventure. (Pricing varies dependent on destination, and length of outing.)
Slumber Parties
A vacation for your pets! Overnight safe, fun care for your animals and security for your home when you are away. Price includes feeding, minor medication administration, walks & potty breaks for dogs, litterbox/cage/stall cleaning for other animals, blanketing/unblanketing and turning out horses, minor plant watering, collecting mail and newspapers, taking out trash and recycling, changing up blinds and lights if desired for better security, and of course playtime and cuddles! (Pricing starts at $65 for routine overnight care. If you have a puppy, more than one pet, or more involved needs, an additional charge may apply, which you would review and approve in advance.)
Health Visits
When your pet is ill or injured and needs extra care while you are not home, I will help with medication administration, subcutaneous fluids, bedding changes, prescribed home rehabilitation activities, or other special health needs. (Call me to discuss your pet’s situation and obtain customized pricing.)
Vet Care Support
It can be extremely upsetting and difficult to think clearly when a beloved pet is hurting, especially with a serious illness or injury. I have experienced this myself, and am grateful to have a trusted, knowledgeable friend to talk the situation through with. It helps me process what the vet is telling me, clarifies questions to ask, gives me perspective on the decisions I need to make, and just helps me feel a lot less anxious. I will be that friend for you. My unique experience working with veterinarians on behalf of Guide Dogs for the Blind and their clients enables me to speak your vet’s language, help walk you through making decisions, evaluate pricing, advocate on your behalf, and support you through the process. If you need assistance after your pet comes home, I will review your vet’s instructions with you and help you get comfortable with the details. (Call me to discuss your pet's situation.)
