I'm not just an animal lover, I've been trained and vetted as a foster and volunteer through multiple shelters and foster organizations. I've been a pet sitter on and off since 2013 as well as being a pet owner my whole life. With me you will receive high-end professional pet care from someone trained to care for animals in the convenience of your own home, or mine. I'm also well versed in caring for animals with anxiety and special needs and can administer most forms of medication. I've fostered animals as young as 4 weeks old, as well as elderly animals with end of life care. I am very active and love high energy dogs and large breeds. I can wear out the most energetic breeds and puppies. My back yard is fenced in but completely paved, however I'm a block away from the closest dog park, and love taking pets on multi-mile walks/runs when needed. (*I will not take dogs to a dog park or around other dogs without it being specifically approved by the pet owner) Please note for boarding requests: I have two (friendly) cats but have the ability to separate them for the duration of your pets stay. I do ask that any pet that stays here is non aggressive towards cats. Elsie particularly loves when I watch puppies as she loves playing with them. I NEVER leave visiting pets and the cats together unsupervised out of an abundance of caution but have never had any issues come up.
