I will walk in any weather.

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm a former French teacher current artist between careers. I live in University City with my partner, Aaron. We don't have any pets at the moment, unfortunately, but I love dogs and cats! My partner is allergic to cats, and we are waiting to get a dog until we are a bit more stable. I am available to walk your dog all day every day as long as you don't live too far away! I love going on long walks myself, so you can rest assured that your dog is going to get some exercise. I also enjoy playing fetch and frisbee outdoors, but please let me know where it is appropriate for me do so. Do you have a fenced in yard? Is there a dog park you like to go to? Where do you usually walk your dog? I am a newbie in pet sitting, but don't worry! I rescued a 4-week-old kitten when I was living in Morocco in 2016, and ever since, I've been really into caring for animals. She was born feral, had really bad fleas, and two inguinal hernias that required operation, and I cared for her until she was large enough for surgery. After caring for her for three months, I was in love, but my husband was developing asthma, so we found her a home and she flew in the cabin with her new owner all the way back to Bloomsberg University of Pennsylvania! I have also completed a workshop for volunteer dog-walking through PAWS in Philadelphia (and I have close friends in vet school, so I like to pick their brains when I wonder things about animals in general).

About Andrea S.

Skills

Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Information Andrea S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know how obedient they are, generally speaking. What types of things are they trained to do/trained not to do? Do they jump a lot? Do they like to put things in their mouth or eat things they're not supposed to? Do they interact well with other dogs? People? Children? What is their activity level? Knowing these kinds of things will help me get an idea of what to do with them while we're out on walks. I'll also learn as I go, of course.

A typical day

I love to walk on the James F. Hall Trail, Glasgow Park, the Newark Reservoir, basically anywhere along White Clay Creek. I can also just walk them around your neighborhood! I love to play frisbee and fetch with dogs, or if they're smaller and less into athletics, I'm up for a good cuddle on the couch.
