I was one of those kids who always had a pet or brought home a critter. If I actually had a brain for science and biology, no doubt I would have become a vet! Nine years ago my husband and I adopted a Coon Hound named Holmes. Holmes, who is now around ten, has become our best bud and has brought new adventures into our world. We adopted Molly in June of 2019. She is the sweetest pup and we believe she is about 7 or 8-years-old. She needs extra care due to having a medical condition called Mega-Esophagus. This basically means that she needs to sit vertically while eating and stay in that position for 30 minutes after to ensure that her food gets to her tummy. Holmes and Molly are family. I treat every pet the way I want my Holmes and Molly to be treated. About this sitter: I recently left my corporate job to become an entrepreneur. The great thing about living in today's times is that you can do side hustles while making your bigger dream a reality. And what better side hustle is there than walking and looking after other people's fur babies??? Why I love dog sitting: Blake and I have been dog lovers all our lives. We both grew up with dogs as long as we can remember. About my yard: Our yard should be fenced off by the end of November (yay!). Until then, we take Holmes out on a leash. Molly is very good to stay by our side. We also have two harnesses attached to stakes in the backyard so they can enjoy sun bathing and roam around. We never leave them in the backyard unattended. My experience administering medication: If we had a dollar for every time Holmes had to take medication when we first adopted him...well, we'd have a lot of dollars! Molly has a special condition and has frequently had to have oral and topical medications.
