Pet care experience

All animals need is patience & love

I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 8 I was raised with dogs and cats but have also had reptile, aquatic, rodent, and bird experience. Mostly shelter volunteer and in-home work, I’m passionate about animal welfare and care. I respect different pet parenting styles and won’t overindulge or overstep my duties as a caretaker. I Also believe in leaving any space I’m in just as or nicer than I found it, as nobody should come home from a vacation to a messy home or chores to do.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I like to get to know the animal in a neutral territory on leash first typically, and build trust with them via walks closer to their home/familiar area especially if they have any new people reactivity. I prefer to work with dogs on leash unless they are in their own home, with the exception of a high fenced yard as I have met both runners and jumpers. Most of my experience has been in-home care for pets and they often do best on their familiar spaces

Terrific. Can not say enough nice things about Bonnie! She kept me updated daily and has won over my rather anxious dog. She is a wonderful animal/house sitter.
