How to make my dog happy during 9-5? • The Purdy Pack

A home-like alternative to kennels in Gig Harbor, Washington

Will my pup receive enough attention while I'm away?

Am I gonna get daily shenanigan updates?

Do I need to worry about my sidekick while I'm far?

A small-setting environment offers a host of benefits for your favorite bestie.

Personalized Attention

With fewer dogs, your pet receives more individualized care and attention, ensuring their specific needs are met.

Stay connected

You will get daily updates and photos via the Time to Pet app or receive texts if you prefer to, so you can stay connected with your best friend throughout the day.

Peace of Mind

Knowing your dog is in a loving, caring home environment can give you peace of mind while you’re away.

Happy Pup = Happy You

Couldn’t recommend Luisa enough!! We just moved to the area and were nervous about finding someone to watch Stanley, but I can tell he was in the best hands. She sent lots of cute updates and it looked like the doggies were having the time of their lives. She made sure he got all of his puppy zoomies out and had plenty of cuddles. 10/10, thank you Luisa!!

Luisa was fantastic!! She took such good care of my pup Louie and provided many updates with pictures and videos all day. Her dog lobster is lovely and got along perfectly with mine. They played so much I know Louie was so so happy!! I can’t wait to use Luisa again in the future for overnight stays!!! Thank you for everything Luisa!! You’re the best!!!

Lola has stayed with Luisa 3 times now. Luisa is very passionate about dogs and it shows. We receive fun message updates and pictures. If you are looking for someone that will love your fur baby as much as you do, choose Luisa.

F.A.Q.

Is this business insured?

YES! Effective June 1, 2024, this business is insured by PCI Pet Care Insurance with Policy No. JN1224.

Rover’s Guarantee helps, but it likely doesn’t cover everything. Pet Care Insurance provides protection for:

Injuries to furry guests: Even accidents happen! Insurance helps cover vet bills if a pup gets hurt under our watch.
Liability for The Purdy Pack business: A client trips and falls? Insurance can help with medical costs.

Basically, it gives you and I peace of mind knowing we’re covered for mishaps beyond Rover’s Guarantee.

Is the Sitter Pet CPR certified?

YES because your bestie’s safety is our priority! Luisa is Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. Our certification through CPR Seattle (expiring March 2026) equips us to handle emergencies and ensure your pup receives the best possible care while in our home.

What is the max number of puppers daily?

We have limited spots for personalized attention.

We provide a close-knit environment where your pup receives the attention they deserve. To ensure this, we only accept a maximum of 5 boarders (and the same for daycare). This allows us to cater to each dog’s individual needs, especially during:

Mealtime: We ensure every dog receives their food and has a relaxed dining experience.
Sleepy Time: We provide comfortable sleeping arrangements tailored to each dog’s preferences.
Nighttime Potty Breaks: For nighttime potty walks, we use fun, neon-colored collars for extra visibility, keeping your pup safe and us attentive. Plus it looks like a rave party is happening in our yard.

Your dog becomes part of our small pack, not just another guest 🙂

Can I do a meet-and-greet before booking?

Absolutely! A meet-and-greet allows your best buddy to get comfortable with the sitter and her own sidekick and for you to discuss any specific needs or instructions.

How will I know my best friend is okay?

You will be getting regular updates, including photos and videos, so you can see your best friend happy and well cared for.

Can I contact the sitter during the day?

Of course! Open communication is encouraged. The sitter will have their contact information readily available.

What if my best bud needs medication?

No problem! We are comfortable administering medication with clear instructions. Be sure to discuss dosage and any potential side effects with us beforehand.
