Pet care experience

Extra time and love to give!

Hi! My name is Ali and I hail from a pet obsessed household and have been surrounded by and caring for pets since I was born. The Summer of 2021 I adopted a Rottweiler puppy of my own who is now 5 years old. I hired a professional dog trainer whose training method is based on mindfulness to ultimately train me (!) to train my dog. I continue to stay educated on various training methods and behavior modification. Therefore, I have experience with puppies and teaching/enforcing basic obedience and behavior modification that I still implement everyday. I’m especially well versed in reactive dogs! I personally understand how hard it can be to leave your buddy behind. The thought of an animal feeling lonely or sad is one of the worst feelings, so I want to ensure your fur baby feels loved and cared for as much as possible while you’re away. My goal is to continue their daily routine as seamlessly as possible. That means administering medications (pills and injections), going for walks, playing, training, picking up poop, cleaning litter boxes, giving baths, taking out the trash; basically whatever is needed, I do it! Honestly, the best way I’ve been able to control my urge to adopt all the animals is to care for yours! :) Please note, that while I’m with your fur-babes, my pup at home still gets LOTS of love and attention from my roommate, however, I’ll need to drop in on her a couple times a day. Because I (mostly) work from home, it is healthy and necessary for us to have some space during the days I’m not at home :) Can’t wait to meet you and your furbs (fur-babes)!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I know how it feels to leave your pet at home in the care of a semi-stranger, and I want you and your pet to feel at ease in order to avoid any additional stress that occurs with leaving the home and traveling. I’m happy to follow any specific directions and schedules. I understand not all pets are “easy” and they all have their own personalities, preferences, and idiosyncrasies. I prefer meet and greets prior to any confirmation for a sitting just to ensure your pet has met me and feels comfortable.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I need to be aware of. Please let me know if they do or don’t like other dogs/animals and what their general preferences and potty schedules and expectations are and if they’re reactive in any way. I’m happy to work with reactive dogs, I just need the details! I love all dogs, but I may not have enough time during the week for higher energy dogs who need a lot of stimulation/longer walk/play time.
