I am home full time, walk 3x a day

Pet care experience

I have always been around animals all my life. I took care of my mom's dog while she was recovering from back surgery. I lived in my mom's home to take care of her and Bella. She was a Sheba Anu, I took care of the feeding, snacks, bathing, walking, giving meds. I saved my sister's dog from death by feeding her with a syringe every 2 hours for 24hrs. I also have experience with caged animals hamsters, guinea pigs. I am comfortable with amphibians, snakes, cats, and fish as well. I will give you updates on the fun we have with pictures as well as text updates. I am comfortable with feed, watering, and administering medication. I do not have any other work, so I can pay quality attention to your furbaby. I would take your dog to a dog park and play with them there as part of exercising besides walking. I hope you will consider me to be a part of you and your animals life.

My aunt did a great job at looking after my grandma's dog when she had back surgery for about 5 months. Her name was Bella and she was taken care of very well.

Lonna has taken care of my pets. I have several cats and had 2 dogs. She did a wonderful job with them. I have seen Lonna pet sit. She was doing a great job with the pet. The dog was very happy and comfortable with her. I highly recommend her for pet sitting. ~ Amy Chadbourne

About three years ago I adopted a severely abused Pit bull. I had to go out of town for a family emergency. As my luck would have it, Chance came down with parvo the day before I had to leave. It was a holiday weekend and no vet offices were open. Thanks to Lonnas help we were able to find one to at least give us advice over the phone. Lonna assured me that she would give chance the fluids she needed just as the vet had said while I was away. Thankfully I was only away over night. When I came back. Lonna helped me care for Chance . We were taking turns making sure got the fluids she needed, cleaning up after her. Making sure she was as comfortable as she could be. Today Chance is 3 years old and healthy and happy as ever. I don't know what I would have done if Lonna wouldn't have been there to care for her when I had to go care for my family. There were other people in the house but none of them stepped up to save Chances life like Lonna did. She is a great person and loves animals. She is the reason I still have my baby.

Information Lonna S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference. Do they get along with other animals? Will they run after small animals while we are walking? Do they have any special care needed?

A typical day

I go for walks around the condos I live at, parks. I want to do some hiking this summer and would take your dog with me.
