I'll scale mountains for your dog.

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets for several years. Heidi, my 16-year-old Greyhound- German Shepherd mix who recently passed away, was a part of my life for 11 years. In her younger days she and I would get up every day at 5:00 AM and walk an hour and 15 minutes. I also have experience training an 86 pound Siberian Husky to use a head halter. My friend's Pitbull (Bailey) is a hardcore puller, and after working with her for a few months I have discovered that she needs a good jog in the woods and some off leash time to get all her energy out! After she is done, she is too tired to pull. I live near a mountain and will gladly take your dog on long hikes and jogs in the woods. ***I own two parakeets, rabbit, and four ducks. In the past I have owned cats, hamsters, rats, and turtles. I am not currently boarding, but I can check in on your pets if you need me to.

Autumn was always exceptionally patient and understanding to her own elderly dog and my energetic husky. So when my family decided to go on a two week trip for my husbands grandfathers memorial, it seemed common sense to have her dog sit for Blaze, the husky. When I returned from my trip i knew she had walked him often and visited him just as much, which was evident by the fact my house was not completely destroyed. However, the most impressive part was that she taught Blaze to walk on a leash! I have been pulled along on our daily walks for almost his entire life, buying many harnesses and collars. He has improved some with age and work, but walking was always our Achilles heal. Autumn took those two weeks as an opportunity, with my permission and knowledge throughout, to buy him a special no-pull collar. That she found through her own research and money. And then to patiently teach him to wear it and walk with it, correcting him throughout. I honestly wish I had met autumn and gone on this trip sooner, if only to have Blaze walking so well! I am forever grateful and will always call autumn first when i need a walker, sitter, or guide.

Autumn P has been my pet sitter for many years. I have had large dogs, (Golden/Chow - Bart, and a Treeing Walker Coonhound - Cash) and currently have a small dog (Chihuahua/Yorkey - Abby). Autumn is a dog wispier! While I did board my dogs once, they were so traumatized that I felt that I could never put them through that again. Most people could not get near Bart, but Autumn was able to approach AND control him from their first meeting. Working full time, I needed someone that I could trust with my fur babies to walk and interact with them, once my spouse, who had always worked a different shift than me, died. The dogs always greeted/greet Autumn with excitement and affection.
