Outdoor Loving Dog's Best Friend
Pet care experience
In my care, your dog will receive tremendous affection (in whatever form your dog prefers) and as much time outdoors as she or he wants! I'm great with the frisbee, and have lots of experience at finding just the right stick to play fetch or tug-of-war with. My schedule is flexible (I'm a freelance writer/editor), so if you are looking for someone several hours a day while you are away, who will actually engage with your pup, I'm the sitter you seek:) I love dog-sitting and -walking, partly because I'm such an outdoor woman, but mostly because I learn so much from being with dogs. I really do believe the phrase "humans best friend" is apt for our canine companions. They are so intelligent, and super aware of human emotion. I'm so grateful for my dog friends! History/Experience: I've cared for three local dogs regularly over the past three years (since moving to Spokane from Berkeley, CA) mostly when their families are out of town. All of them are fabulous references. I also cared for a dog who was suffering from cancer, for four months while his family was away (in Berkeley), and one local dog who also required medication while his family was away. Both of these families are also great references. Besides these more recent experiences, I've been caring for dogs off and on since I was a girl. Relevant Skills: keeping an old towel handy for drying off after a swim or a bout with the rain!, running, playing fetch, frisbee (I was on an awesome Ultimate team in college), soccer, walking multiple times per day, administering medicine or shots, petting/hugging/whatever your dog prefers, animal communication and understanding:)
Reviews
Anna has been a dog sitter for us on several occasions. When she comes over, our dog Hazel always goes right way to her and is excited to see her. She takes good care of our dog and when we return, you can tell she's been taken care of !
