Safety, trust & environment

As an experienced pet caregiver, I understand the importance of providing personalized care to each pet based on their unique needs and preferences. When caring for pets in my client's home, I will take great care to ensure that their daily routines are maintained as closely as possible to minimize stress and anxiety. This may include feeding them according to their usual schedule, taking them for walks or playtime at the same time each day, and providing plenty of love and attention. In addition to these basic care needs, I will also pay close attention to any special requirements that each pet may have. For example, if a pet is on medication, I will make sure that they receive their medication on schedule and in the correct dosage. If a pet has any behavioral issues, I will work with them to ensure that they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Overall, I will approach each pet with patience, kindness, and a deep love for animals, ensuring that they receive the best possible care and attention while their owners are away.

Information Alani H. would like to know about your pet

1.Daily Routine: I should learn about the dog's daily routine, including their food schedule, exercise requirements, and any particular habits or preferences they may have, before dog sitting. This will enable me to give the dog a cozy and familiar environment. 2. Health and Medical Information: It's important to understand if the dog has any allergies, medical issues, or special nutritional needs. Additionally, I need to have their veterinarian's contact information in case any medical emergency or issues come up while I'm dog sitting. 3. Medication and Vaccinations: Please let me know the amount, frequency of administration, and timing of any medication the dog needs. In order to protect the dog's health and stop the transmission of diseases, it's also critical to make sure the dog has received all necessary vaccines. 4. Behavioral Characteristics and Training: By understanding the dog's behavior, level of training, and any particular commands or cues they respond to, I can give the best treatment possible. If the dog has any fears, anxieties, or triggers that I should be aware of when spending time with them, that information is also crucial to know. 5. Emergency Contacts: I should have the owner's or the person in charge of the dog's care's contact information. It's also useful to have a second emergency contact in case I can't get through to the main one. 6. Favorite Games, Toys, and Activities: By being aware of the dog's preferences, I can keep them occupied and amused while dog sitting. While their owner is away, it's crucial to keep them occupied and mentally stimulated. 7. Leash and Walk Preferences: If the dog will be going on walks with me, I should be aware of their preferred leash, any specific walking instructions, and any leash-reactivity or distinctive behavior they may have around other dogs or humans. 8. House Rules and Boundaries: I must inquire of the owner if they have any particular guidelines or limitations for their dog. The owner's usage of any training orders or cues is also included here, as are any restrictions on where the dog is or is not permitted to go. 9. The dog's emergency protocols, such as what to do in the event of an escape or if they get lost while out on a walk, must be known. This will enable me to respond promptly and properly to unanticipated circumstances. 10. other Care Instructions: I should be sure to have all the information required to provide the best care possible if the owner has any other care preferences or instructions, such as grooming schedules, certain foods, or unique concerns.

A typical day

1. Play fetch: I adore amusing dogs with a game of fetch! They are kept active and interested by this timeless and enjoyable pastime. In the backyard or a local park, we'll play some spirited games of fetch with a ball or their favorite toy that I'll bring along. 2. Take Dogs for Walks: Walking our dogs gives us a chance to explore the neighborhood while they receive some fantastic exercise. I'll make sure to use a strong leash and adhere to any specific walking directions the owner may provide while we take in the sights and smells. 3. Play a game of tug-of-war with your dog. Dogs love to play tug-of-war, and it's a great method to cement our relationship. I'll locate an appropriate tug toy and start a nice, controlled game, making sure to periodically let the dog win for added pleasure. 4. Teach New Tricks: I'll use the occasion to teach the dog new skills or to reaffirm existing instructions. Training sessions may be a lot of fun and mentally challenging for the dog, whether it's learning fundamental commands like "sit," "stay," or more complex skills like "speak," or "spin." 5.Scheduling a playdate for one of my dogs with another dog, if possible and with the owner's permission. Dogs can get a terrific chance to interact with other dogs, let off some steam, and enjoy some canine company. 6.Time for Relaxation and Bonding: Not all activities need to be incredibly energizing. I'll make sure to schedule time for unwinding and spending quality time with the dog. I can read a book or watch TV as we snuggle, give each other belly rubs, or just spend some peaceful time together. 7.Outdoor Adventures: If allowed and acceptable, I may take the dog on outdoor excursions like hiking, discovering nature paths, or going to a beach or park that welcomes dogs. It gives us both the opportunity to take in the fresh air. I love taking my dogs for a walk at McKelligon Canyon, they love the atmosphere and it is a great source of exercise. With the permission of owners I will be more that happy to take their babies there.
