Pet care experience

Hello Fellow Animal Lovers!!!!

I have at collective 15 years of doggie daycare, walking and sitting experience! I know how to properly administer medication. I have knowledge of many dog breeds and temperaments. I am confident in handling all sizes of dogs! What sets me apart from other dog walkers is that I understand dog body language, I am very patient and extremely loving to dogs! I have always worked with dogs and loved that they match my energy! whatever you need help with as a new owner or not I am always happy to help!!! I Love to get to know dog parents as well to get to know their dog !!

Safety, trust & environment

I mainly follow the instructions of the pet parent. Whatever they do at home that is routine, I try to follow that routine as well. By that I mean, walking and feeding their fur baby at the scheduled times every day, making sure they are hydrated. I play with them as often as I can .

Akiko was super calm and gentle with Moana and we could tell she really responded to her energy, which is great for her anxiety. Can't wait to work with her again!

As usual, Akiko did a great job house and pet sitting for us. Sully and Leo enjoy having her around and appreciate her attentiveness, walks and cuddles. Akiko is communicative and recently, even helped give Sully medication with no issues. Thanks as always!

I would like to know the basic things like temperament, their good and bad habits and what to avoid so that the dog is comfortable and safe in whatever environment we happen to be in. I find it important to know things that scary the dog and what makes it really happy as well. If anything the past the dog has as well is important to me, in case of trauma the dog is going through!
