In Your Home: Respecting the space: I follow your home entry instructions precisely and ensure your home is secure when I arrive and leave. I stick strictly to your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, and cleaning up (like scooping litter boxes or wiping muddy paws). I spend focused, high-energy time playing with active pets, or offer calm, comforting company to more independent or shy animals. Dog walking: I always use double-checked leashes and harnesses, ensuring a secure grip. I am always hyper-aware of our surroundings, avoiding interactions with unknown dogs or potential hazards. Walks are entirely tailored to your dog’s stamina. On hot summer days, I keep walks structured, stick to shaded paths, check pavement temperatures, and prioritize hydration. For the pet parent: I provide real-time updates and cute photos during or immediately after every visit, so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing!
