I'm a volunteer, foster mentor, and trainer for Schnauzer Rescue of Texas, Doodle rescue, Pooch Savers, TexasGSP, Cody's Friends Rescue, and Brittany rescue (BRIT). I also do home visits for other rescues in Tarrant/Johnson counties. I have 2 friendly foster failures. I work at home --- doing dog care FULL TIME. I am the activities director, steward/concierge, and sleep fairy at bedtime. I offer a
fun and safe host home for your dogs when you're on vacation or traveling for work, and devoted care for seniors/special needs who require extra attention. I’m located off of Hwy 287 and Turner Warnell, on the Arlington/Mansfield border, in a quiet, low-traffic subdivision. Seniors & meds ...
I can accommodate dogs who are medically fragile and/or senior. I had flood lights installed in my back yard to help seniors with failing eyesight. Inside, I have plug-in night lights at floor level.

Small dogs never go potty in the back yard without me or my dogs as es**rt. Guests don't have access to an external door. My 6' privacy fence is new, regularly inspected, and the perimeter is lined with stone. I need shot records for every dog in my care. Guests are spayed/neutered, housebroken, and flea- and tick-free when dropped off. For the peace of the pack, guests cannot be aggressive, have separation anxiety, or be nonstop barkers. My co-hosts
Marie was 4 yo when I adopted her from TexasGSP in 2017. She’ll let any dog eat out of her bowl, is completely nonreactive, and serves as therapist to foster dogs and first-time guests. She’s the leader of the couch potato gang but will play ring-around-the-pergola upon request. Shayna was a pregnant stray who had puppies in a shelter served by Shelter2Rescue. I foster failed her in December of 2014. She loves the tiniest of dogs, and they love playing and cuddling with her. Her special talent is showing our first-time guests where to p*e and poo and serving as a cushion for her tiny friends. She thinks I board dogs just for her. Me ---
