A well-exercised dog is a happy dog — more peace of mind for you and less mischief at home. Your pup joins Meno and her dog Biggy for a 2.5–3 hour hike on nearby trails, open spaces, and beaches. We’ll cover 2–4 miles walking, running and exploring with a stops for water and shade. Mileage can be shortened or lengthened according to your dog’s needs. Once Meno has established reliable recall with your dog, most of the adventure will be leash-free. With Biggy’s playful presence and Meno’s attentive guidance, your dog will return home tired, happy, and fulfilled.
Rate: $50 per hiking adventure. Pick up and drop off provided.
Best for: active dogs who need exercise, enrichment, and the mental challenges that trail hikes provide. Limited to 2 dogs per outing (aside from Biggy).
-
For dogs who prefer a calmer, solo outing, Meno offers individual leash walks without Biggy, ranging from 30 minutes to 1 hour. Each walk is tailored to your dog’s pace and needs—whether it’s an energetic stride or a gentle stroll around the neighborhood. Your pup gets fresh air, exercise, and one-on-one attention.
Rate: $30-60 ($1 per minute, minimum 30 minutes)
Best for: shy or anxious pups, seniors, or dogs who thrive on one-on-one time.
-
A safe, joyful space for dogs to spend the day. At our home, your pup will enjoy supervised play with Biggy, a friendly and balanced companion. We offer a fully fenced yard with a dog-friendly pool, sunny and shady spots for lounging, and space to romp. Inside, dogs are welcome to relax on the couch and feel part of the family. Moveable gates allow for gentle separation or rest when needed, ensuring everyone has a safe and comfortable experience. A crate is available for use.

$75 full day (up to 8 hrs)
Best for: social dogs who enjoy playtime, swimming, or simply hanging out in a relaxed home environment. We have a cat and are unable to care for cat-chasers.

When your pup feels most comfortable at home, Meno will come to you. A home visit can include potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, or a short neighborhood walk—tailored to your dog’s needs and routine. Biggy can join if your pup would enjoy a friendly playmate, or Meno can come solo for dogs who prefer one-on-one attention. Home care provided for cats and select house pets. Plant care can be incorporated. Please inquire for more.
Rate: $30-60 ($1 per minute, 30 min minimum)
Best for: puppies needing frequent breaks, senior dogs, pups who do best in their own space, cats and other pets. -
Your dog(s) will love playing with Biggy, lounging in the sun and shade, and getting loved up by Meno and her family. In the warmer months we love to toss balls into our dog-friendly pool for our eager swimmers and into our wading pool or through the sprinklers for splash-lovers . In the chilly months, we like to walk or hike, and then nap and play in our warm, cozy home. Our pup guests enjoy sleeping on the dog beds and couch in the living room. Crates are available if preferred. We go for a walk or hike every morning and evening. You provide food, I provide clean bowls, fresh water and treats.
Boarding in my home – $80 per night per dog. 2 dogs maximum.
Add-on:
End-of-stay wash in my outdoor dog shower (warm water, gentle soap): $25
Best for: dogs who need overnight companionship, consistency, and loving care while their humans are away.
We do have a cat so, unfortunately, we cannot board doggies who chase cats in our home.
Pet sitting overnight in your home - $100-130 per night
