Dog whisperer with fenced in yard

Pet care experience

As a life-long dog owner, I know that finding the right person to care for your pet is essential to your peace of mind. Each dog sitting stint begins with walking the dog in order to try and lessen the dog's anxiety of being away from its owner and to grow a bond between your dog and myself. I treat each dog as if s/he were my own and provide the things that help to ensure good health and a happy dog; exercise (usually twice a day walks), grooming and plenty of attention. I can send photos of your dog and let you know how the dog is doing. I want your dog to return home to you and you be totally satisfied with the experience. My goal is to lessen your stress.

I am so thankful I can make last minute plans and have Ellie taken care of! I felt so stress free knowing she is in good hands. And thanks for the advice!

Birgit took excellent care of our pup and sent us daily updates, which we really appreciated. She took him on daily walks and he was in high spirits when we picked him up. We highly recommend Birgit!

Birgit was great! Took Luna on lots of walks and kept us well informed with pictures and updates. Could tell Luna enjoyed her stay as she gave Birgit several kisses when we said goodbye. Will definitely have Luna stay with her again!

Information Birgit K. would like to know about your pet

I am a big dog person, but love all sizes. I always want to meet your dog first and see how it reacts to me. Does your dog (mainly) follow commands? Is there a group of people your dog does not like (i.e. kids, etc. important to know for walking)? Is your dog afraid of anything or scared by noises?

A typical day

I can either walk your dog in the neighborhood, or if appropriate, take the dog to the very close school field and throw a ball. I do not like to take my charges to a dog park. If you dog has toys, playing fetch or tug of war is a fun game for both of us.
