Pet care experience

Loving care when you can’t be there

I have grown up taking care of my family’s old dog who passed two years ago since I was 6 years old. She gave me experience caring for a young dog who was high energy, to caring for her elderly state when I needed to administer routine medication when she would try to refuse it. Additionally, I have grown up reliably dog/house sitting for four different families through the years. I have boarded, dog sat, done check-ins, and have done daily routine walks.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Firstly, I make sure I know all I need to know about the pet so that I can provide care curated to them. If there are special rules to follow I follow them. I give them as much attention as possible unless they don’t want it, and I give them the needed activity level based on the information their owner provides.
