Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, playful and experienced!
Dear prospective client, I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 30 years. Professionally, I have worked as a walker for Mobile Mutts in Brooklyn, NY; a doggy daycare associate at NYC's Biscuits and Bath, and took care of pugs at a rescue called Pug Nation in Los Angeles, where I currently reside. In my personal life, I've been a devoted parent to 5 kitties and 2 pups. I've administered diabetes and other medication to cats; I've volunteered at multiple cat and dog rescues, where I was responsible for feeding, cleaning, playing and walking. I am passionate about animals and their well-being. I am an expert snuggler but also cognizant of a pet's boundaries and their special needs.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a spacious and totally private, fenced-in backyard with grass that's a great space for some doggy playing and exercise. I live in a peaceful, safe community that's a dream for dog-walking. If pet-setting at your place, I will greet your pup with joy and love and make sure they feel loved. If crating is necessary, I am happy to do that as well. For kitties, I will play and snuggle and make them feel completely adored and engaged. Litterbox cleaning, medication administering, whatever your pet needs, they will be covered.

A typical day
Creative activities for dogs and cats are my specialty. We will start with a walk with a pup that will always take them on a slightly different route than last time, with plenty of satisfying sniffing. Once back home, we will have some treat dispenser fun, perhaps a game of hide and seek, a stairway race (if there are stairs and with your approval, of course!), and classic games like fetch and tug of war. For kitties, we will do some fun tin foil ball chasing and other fun hunts, followed by some brushing and lap time, make a cardboard box, and do a treat puzzle!
