Days won’t be ruff with me helping!

Pet care experience

Welcome to my page! I’m a recent graduate of the sciences that holds a deep passion for animals. When I’m not working my full time job during the week, I love to pass my extra time with as many adorable pets as possible. I currently own a husky, two cats, and a rabbit, but I’ve had experience with many other animals as well, and am always up for the challenge of learning more about animal care. I know leaving pets behind with a stranger can be scary, but I promise I’ll do my best to provide the same level of love and care that they would normally receive.

Blakely did drop in visits for our cat for five days. We were very pleased with the care she provided. Blakely is a good communicator and kept us updated on her daily visits.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently have a small portion of my yard that is fenced in, so dogs can be let out without leash when possible. I also have dog crates to crate pets when necessary to keep them out of trouble during the day, but I will only do that if necessary and if the pet is crate trained. Otherwise I make sure to keep pets in an area where they can’t access anything that would harm them. When in other’s houses, I follow their guidelines to keep pets as safe as possible.

Information Blakely D. would like to know about your pet

Before I watch a dog, I always like to know what kind of things trigger them, and any relevant medical information. If your dog is leash reactive or doesn’t warm up well to strangers, that’s something I need to know. I also need to know how your dog reacts to other dogs.

A typical day

If you have a high energy dog, I’d love to help with that. Because I own a husky, I’m use to riding my bike while she runs with me to get all her excess energy out. I would be happy to take your dog along for a ride too if they show an interest in running.

Availability

I currently work full time, so pet care is more of a hobby at this point than anything else. For that reason I’m mainly available on weekends with the occasional holiday as well. Just reach out to see if your needs can be met with my schedule.
