Pet care experience
I have had pets growing up and my own since I was in my own home. I have volunteered at a Rescue and I loved getting to play with all kinds of pups. I love working with people as well. I thought pet sitting and house sitting would be a great way to combine the two! ***extremely flexible with pay***
Reviews
Bethany was great with my older dog that needs a little extra care these days. Very patient and caring.
Bethany did a fantastic job with our pups while we were away. We felt very secure in knowing that they were well cared for. She was conscientious and sent us regular updates on how they were doing and with pictures. It is always stressful for dogs when they are out of their routine and in an unfamiliar environment. She treated them as if they were her own dogs. They came back to us more relaxed than they usually are when staying with other dog sitters. We will definitely have them stay with her again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I make sure that I wash my hands when I arrive at my client's home. I also wash my hands when I leave. I am sure to do procedures as my clients ask. If they want their animals on leashes, even if they have been trained or have electric fences, they will be. I will also be sure to have a meet and greet before agreeing to new clients. Safety is first, I want to put the family's mind at ease that their pets are well taken care of when gone. If the pet is being cared for in my home, I will take similar precautions.
Home
Information Bethany K. would like to know about your pet
I like to know a dogs preferences, triggers, meds, and typical day. If they have any special feeding requirements, things they enjoy, what they do when meeting a new dog or person? Are they a cuddly dog or an independent dog?
A typical day
I love to give dogs freedom to run in my yard. With multiple dogs at my house they have opportunities to play. At your house I spend time making sure the pup is given energy burn time. It is important to mention I work a typical office 9-5 job outside the home, so if your pup is at my house there may be a period of time where I am not home during the day depending on the scheduled stay.
