I have dog fever 100% of the time

Pet care experience

I was born an animal lover and the highlights of my day tend to be geared towards my dogs (Athena and Zeus). I plan to open an animal shelter at retirement (I’m 25 so I’ve got a few more years left) but taking baby steps. I have the ultimate puppy fever (dog/cat) and hope to meet some lovely animals in my journey. I’ve always owned dogs and have always cared for them, ranging from chihuahuas to golden retrievers to German Shepherds (from puppies to elder dogs to special needs). I’ve had to care for toffee (my parents dog who moved in with me), an elderly chihuahua, who was diagnosed with seizures, as well as Bella who was A puppy at heart but 15 years on the outside (heart problems so I had to make sure she didn’t over excite or stress herself) I love going on walks so having an extra friend or two is always amazing. I’m a responsible individual who is very task oriented, a small background into my professional life - I studied aeronautical engineering (bachelors) and mechanical engineering (masters) and work locally so I’m very good a balancing priorities and making sure everything gets done in a responsible, organized, and fun manner!

Assila was great and super reliable when pet sitting my cat! My cat isn't normally comfortable with strangers, and Assila was great at engaging with while allowing her space to get used to someone new.

Absolutely amazing as always ! We would recommend Assila to absolutely everyone she is so caring and loving, I think my pups might officially like her more than me.

Absolutely amazing ! My pups got all the love and care they needed while my wife and I were away for vacation. Assila kept us informed the whole time and handled our older dog’s special needs(has pain in her hips) flawlessly! She even left us some homemade organic treats with her special recipe on the counter for us when we got home. I couldn’t be more pleased and gracious. We will be booking with Assila every time we go out of town and I’m sure my pups are already missing her.

Information Assila B. would like to know about your pet

I love all kinds of breeds! I’d like to know their social levels and how comfortable they are around other people and dogs so I can plan my route accordingly. If the dog prefers a certain area (grass over sidewalks) then I can certainly accommodate to that too! I also have a fenced yard that can quickly drain the energy with lots of fetch and running.
