About: Haven't had a pet in almost 10 years so I might be a little rusty but I have over 15 years experience with a medium/big dog (chow chow) and as well as a little dog (pekingese), Feral cat (bombay) trained to love and be loved and to be happy & friendly. As an trustworthy and friendly sitter and animal lover especially dogs, cats next. I have plenty room to still learn more and experience more, the patience I have with fur babies is because they're pretty much like our children. Smoke free, cage free unless trained and requires to be in a crate, walks every 4 -6 hours during the day until the early night and sometimes late night, unless pet has special requirements to take more walks it can be provided. And plenty of space and play time. Backyard is unfenced plenty of run around in the back area of the location area, plenty of nearby parks, basement is currently semi unfinished with no furniture with plenty of roam around room, with potential for setup area to cool off, eat, lay and relax, as well as play with access to the back area. If fur baby has separation, anxiety issue will try to help dog with that please notify if dog needs extra attention. ALSO KNOW AN EXCELLENT DOG TRAINER WHICH IS SEPARATE FROM THIS CAN SEND YOU THE INFORMATION TO MAKE YOUR FUR BABY THE PERFECT GUEST IN SOMEONE'S HOME AND YOURS! (ISPEAKDOG) I'm currently working full/ part time with a flexible schedule on the road, and kina awkward sleep schedule where im up most of the time and random times but i able to keep up with a set schedule. so I do have flexibility with dog walks, play time, feed time, and down time will preferable be of course at night where I maybe either sleep or out working for a few hours but not interrupting fur baby resting hours unless special attention is needed also do have a back up person on site incase of emergencies. I currently have no pets again as of yet other than fish ... but provide a clean, spacious unfinished basement with windows is where animal will typically lounge at, unless it's one or two small little dogs that have anxiety mishaps. dogs may have the option to roam the house, but not beds they will have their own blanket or doggy bed to relax on. also available is a backyard entrance to let dogs out to use the rest room unfenced backyard so if you have a dog that is a runner or a trackstar a proper leash or harness with extensions is needed to let the fur baby roam and run without getting lost so fur babies will be able to play in the large back field area. PLEASE NOTE If you know your fur babies do not get along with others please let me know so i can try to keep them separate or get them use to the pack even with a watchful eye they are like kids they are likely to get in a fight and im not responsible for them incidents I promote safety, peace, playfulness and award good behavior, A space for eat, lay,and play, and time and energy for walks, and exercise and care!

About: I'm new to professional dog walking and eager to grow my experience. I've regularly walked my grandmother's dog, and I love being outdoors with animals. I'm reliable, patient, and will treat your dog with the same care I'd give my own family's pet. I'm happy to follow your routines and send updates along the way. I'm currently in school pursuing my master's degree. At the moment, I'm available on weekdays from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM for walks, and I'm available from Saturday afternoon to Sunday afternoon for house sitting. I only provide care at my client's home, not my own, so your pet stays in their familiar environment, which I find reduces stress for most animals. When I'm in your home for walks or house sitting, I follow your established routine for feeding, playtime, and walks as closely as possible. I keep a close eye on your pet's behavior and comfort throughout, make sure doors and gates are secure, and send updates or photos so you can check in. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect and attention I'd want if the roles were reversed.

Bessie was fantastic with Pip and Taz! She took great care of everything—from their feeding routine and litter box to spending time playing and hanging out with them. She was extremely communicative, sent plenty of photos and updates, and made it easy to feel confident that they were well cared for while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Bessie and will definitely use her again!
