20 years of dog experience!
Pet care experience
I have over 20 years of experience with dogs, building trust and having fun, and making sure your beloved furry friend is taken care of is my highest priority. Personalized care is #1 so I always make sure I learn each dog and their specific needs and preferences (ex: fast or slow walks, avoiding bicycles, separation anxiety, favorite treats). For 14 years I owned a Pomeranian - my little high maintenance puff ball was my best friend but she passed away a couple of years ago. I am a full-time graduate student and medical Social Worker.
Reviews
Addis is a superb caregiver for dogs! I have personally witnessed her innate ability to connect and empathize with my two terriers, set boundaries where necessary and understand their needs. I highly recommend her skills to anyone who wants their animal to be cared for by an intelligent, resourceful and intuitive human.
Addis walked and pet sat my dog Olive, and did a fantastic job! She is such a reliable person and I always knew I could count on her to take great care of my pup. She is flexible and really communicative which was so nice when things popped up at the last minute. Most importantly, Olive absolutely adored her and felt comfortable and relaxed around her. I would absolutely recommend Addis for any of your pup’s needs!
Addis is a genuine dog lover. She is highly responsible, communicative, able to follow instructions, and just overall wonderful. She has a very calming voice that can soothe the most anxious chihuahua. Seeing her interact with my fur babies keeps my mind at ease because she treats them like her own. I trust Addis 100% to watch over my dogs.
Addis is my go to pet sitter! She communicates well, is always on time, and honestly cares for the animals she’s watching over. I felt so much better knowing she was there to feed, cuddle, and care for them while I had an unexpected trip out of town. When I returned from my trip the animals were happy and my apartment was clean.
About Addis G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
**COVID-19 Update** I am fully vaccinated with a booster and wear a mask while walking. Communication is very important especially during the first walks so that I can know a bit about your dog's temperaments and personality and who to call in case of an emergency like a vet office.
Information Addis G. would like to know about your pet
What is their favorite toy, favorite treat, usual potty schedule, what they dislike (other dogs, cats, bikes, small children..etc), what commands do you commonly use?
A typical day
There's great local parks: Judkins, Olympic Sculpture, Volunteer, and Southlake Union are some of my favorite. That's the joy of dog sitting, you can explore the city with the dog :)
