Pet care experience
EXPERIENCE / Dogs + Cats: An animal lover through and through, I treat dogs and cats like my children. I’ve been a pet owner all my life and frequently take care of my friends’ and family’s fur babies. I’m currently mom to my dog Junebug, a high-energy, sweet and social 9 y.o. Boston Terrier mix. Friends and family rely on me for my thorough care, meticulousness, enthusiasm, and affectionate yet grounded disposition. I can attune to different dog's and cat's energy and activity levels, and can provide them with long and short walks, and whatever fulfillment they need (as appropriate for each animal). For dogs, I love doing pack walks with all of us in the fresh air and grounded in the scenery and nature. I am a fairly active person, so I can provide long and fun walks together. They will also get other mental and physical exercise through playing fetch or other games. *** SCHEDULE / Dogs + Cats: I work from home as a freelance marketer and have the time and flexibility to care for other fur babies, so my schedule is flexible. *** EXPERIENCE / Cats: I also love cat’s disposition and nature. I’ve cared for many of my friends' cats. In fact, two of my best friend's cats consider me their second favorite hooman (first being their owner mom) and as part of their pack. I will match their energy as to give them space and time to get to know me. I will look after them with the utmost delicateness and care.
Reviews
Bonnie has been great with our pup! She gives lots of updates on how the walk has gone. And is very patient with our somewhat sensitive/funny dog. She brings her own dog on the walk (as we requested) to give our dog some socialization, which has been great! And she is very reliable!
Bonnie is fanTASTic!! I am so appreciative of her great care of our dog. She is a terrific communicator and was so sweet to our pupper.
Thanks for watching our dogs!
Bonnie was amazing with my puppy Chloe! So very grateful for Bonnie. She suggested a meet and greet before watching Chloe, where Junebug and Chloe played, and Bonnie got to know our pup. While pupsitting, Bonnie always kept us updated on Chloe’s adventures with her and Junebug. Chloe had a great time and was a super happy, thank you so much Bonnie!!
About Bonnie C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When dropping by at your home and caring for your dog, I will be very respectful and conscious of your space and personal effects. Rest assured, your home will be the same as you have left it, with no mess left behind or nothing disorderly, etc. Under your instructions, I will provide the care and attention it needs. I enjoy exploring new places, nearby parks and trails, so your dog will likely have some adventures, if ok with you. *** COMMUNICATION while you're away / I know it’s anxiety-inducing being away from your fur baby staying in a new place. You can be rest assured I will send frequent updates when they've been fed, walked, and photos and videos of your pet, our activities, cute antics with my dog, etc. I am very communicative, as I like to keep owners up-to-date (within reason so as not to bother you too much).
Home
Information Bonnie C. would like to know about your pet
1) Has your dog demonstrated any aggression or is aggressive type? Unfortunately, I cannot accept dogs who have history of aggression. 2) Is your dog on fleas medication? My dog is, and I would prefer not to bring dogs in my home or visit dogs who may carry parasites. Of course, please also let me know if your dog/cat has other medical issue and needs or behavior problems. ***IMPORTANT NOTE: I DO NOT let dogs off leash in areas that ARE NOT designated as dog parks.***
A typical day
Dogs / I am an active person, but I will attune to your pet's energy and activity level. Depending on your dog, I can take your dog on a short or long walks. I really enjoy pack walks, letting the dogs experience and explore the outside elements and be their natural selves (with rules of course). Cats / I will make sure your cat is comfortable and taken care of while you're away. I will feed them, ensure their water bowl is full, litter is cleaned and provide them with playtime/exercise should they need it.
