- WE GIVE A PAW . . . BY DEEPENING THE BONDS BETWEEN DOGS AND THEIR PEOPLE
At Give A Paw Canine Wellness, LLC, we offer a holistic approach to your dog’s overall Wellness experience. We promote a harmonious mind-body connection for further physical, social, behavioral, cognitive, and emotional development. In our Wellness Suite offerings, we focus on these Five Foundations: Comfort, Companionship, Nourishment, Play, and Purpose.
Home Visits:These are designed for clients who may be away from home for extended periods on certain days of the week and need extra help with: medication, socialization with other people, being let outside briefly for sniff time and potty breaks, play, exercise, and snuggling. Though offered for older puppies and seniors, arrangements can be made for adult dogs in certain situations. Pet parents receive “Pup-Dates” with photos, videos, and a RE-PAW-TAGE of the day’s events.
Note: For most of our suite of Services, we offer a 10% discount at every stage when purchases are processed through our website’s payment portal. However, with a few unique offerings such as this one, we have built in generous prepaid options, lower pricing, and other PAW-CKAGES that are equally cost-effective!
Melty Massage:This service is for Adolescents, Adults and Seniors. All massages are gentle and involve no pressure, no deep tissue work, or manipulation of limbs, organs, or muscles. We simply stroke the dog and send positive energy their way. All massages are offered in the home, on the dog’s choice of comfy surface (carpet, dog’s bed, couch, pillows, blankets). Special consideration is given to dogs with arthritis, allergies, bumps, and other conditions. If not home during the massage, pet parents receive “Pup-Dates” with photos, videos, and a RE-PAW-TAGE of the Service
Full Disclaimer: We are working toward Canine Massage Certification. If you have any questions or concerns about our status, please ask during our Complimentary Phone Call.
Often, dogs are left alone for up to eight hours a day (or more!) during the usual pet parent work week. Thankfully, this is changing because more people work from home. However, being at home does not always mean your pup will get their needs and wants met on any given day. One way to address this “paw on” is to be intentional and strategic as to how to efficiently use the family’s time to benefit the dog and the people.
So . . . what are Enrichment Consultations? These are fluid, dynamic, ever-changing management-based plans driven by your need for harmony in the home and a dog’s passion for Life Rewards*. The plan may include:
(*Life Rewards are the results of your dog making healthy choices and using positive behavior that elicit precisely what they wanted originally . . . but were misbehaving to get! For example: Digging for toys/bones in a home-made sandbox instead of tearing up the rose garden; Sniffy Walks where your dog leads the way without pulling; Jumping in a sport competition like dock diving and agility instead of the preferred leaping on grandma at the front door!)
Enrichment Consultations: Together, over six Seventy-Minute sessions, we develop an adaptive and flexible schedule of activities—posted and placed in a central location where it is viewable by the entire household—to enrich your dog’s daily life. This schedule will be in constant flux, as we determine what is working, and what is not. In Enrichment Consultations, adjustments are the highest form of tail-wagging flattery! After six weeks, clients will have the toolkit to continue and tweak the program as necessary. Sessions may be in-person, virtual, or a combination agreed upon during the Initial Consultation.
Enrichment Consultations Follow-ups: At any time, former clients may contact Give A Paw Canine Wellness, LLC, for “as needed” Follow-up Sessions.

Same-Day Sitting: This service is at the pet parent’s home. It is designed for those spending extended time away from their dog or dogs, on one specific calendar day, and would prefer not to have them in doggy day care. Minimum three hours, maximum six hours. These “sits” can be any day of the week, day, or night, but not overnight; that is another service we offer. Dogs will receive their usual loving care, food/water/medication, one or two 30-60-minute walks, play time, potty time, and plenty of snuggles. When we dog-sit, whether Same-Day or Overnight, we will not see other clients. This is exclusive time for your dog or dogs. For us to adjust scheduling of existing clients, we require advanced scheduling of at least three weeks. Reduced rates are offered for up to two other adolescent/adult dogs in the family. (Sorry, no extra puppies or seniors out of respect for the extra care they need.) Cats considered for extra fee. Note: Established clients may schedule up to one week in advance. If there is availability, the rate is higher, but your Top Dog Loyalty Club discounts can be applied to lower the price. Pet parents receive “Pup-Dates” with photos, videos, and a RE-PAW-TAGE of the day’s events.

For the Overnight Service, dog-sitting is at the pet parent’s home. We stay over with your pup or pups! Dogs will receive their usual special care, food/water/medication, their walk routine, play time, and potty time. Pet parents receive “Pup-Dates” with photos, videos, and a RE-PAW-TAGE of the day’s events.
Overnight: Depending on dogs’ ages, up to three total can be cared for. On-site time maxes out at fourteen consecutive hours, for example, beginning the Service at 7 pm and ending the following morning at 9 am. We do not see other clients during the Overnight timespan. This Service must be scheduled three or more weeks in advance.Pet parents receive “Pup-Dates” with photos, videos, and a RE-PAW-TAGE of the day’s events.

Time: For the 24-and-More Service, dog-sitting is at the pet parent’s home. We stay over with your pup or pups for at least two nights, and up to six nights! Special consideration will be given to extended time away beyond one week. Dogs will receive their usual special care, food/water/medication, their walk routine, play time, and potty time. Visits to the vet or groomer are part of the Service as needed. This Service must be scheduled three or more weeks in advance
Training: Pet parents may opt-in for daily Training for one or more dogs. We teach new skills, for example, teaching your dog to choose a toy from three being offered, and to retrieve the same one each time when cued. For maintenance of previously learned skills, perhaps your dog has mastered loose-leash walking with no pulling, but they have been mainly off-leash in open space with you for a while and could use a refresher for when you are crossing crosswalks and around cars and other dogs.
Discount: After three overnights, the remainder of the 24-and-More Service is discounted 10% per 24 hours, 10% for any training per dog, and for and other animals being looked after.
For the final day, it is considered a 12-hour shift with a base rate. It is also discounted if it is after three overnights.
Note: This is NOT exclusive time at your home every minute of every day. We see other clients during standard business hours, typically 10-4. However, we do NOT see other clients at dinner time and overnight, nor do we have another 24-and-More Service at the same time or overlapping during the same calendar week. We also do NOT do Same-Day Sitting or Overnight Services during the time we are committed to your pup or pups. In short, during daytime hours, we work with our regular clients, but depending on your dog or dogs’ needs, we can choose the baseline “away” times such as 2-4 hours, or 3-4 hours, which most clients experience positively.
24-and-More: This service is for at least one dog, but up to three will be considered depending on their ages. Minimum stay is two nights, and maximum stay is a week. A 10% discount begins on the fourth day. Longer stays will be considered. The benefit your dog or dogs receive will be our devoted attention and care, stimulating exercise, cognitive challenges, quiet time, play, and plenty of snuggles. Training is also offered. Pet parents receive “Pup-Dates” with photos, videos, and a RE-PAW-TAGE of the day’s events.
