I am someone who cares deeply for our furry family members. If there is something I can do to make a dog’s stay better, I go far beyond my regular duties to make sure your pet leaves happy when they go home. That includes prepping healthy snacks, having plenty of toys to play with, a safe and comfortable environment, and plenty of exercise. I possess a unique capacity for empathy. I tend to know how someone is feeling and do my best to try and cheer them up. In the case of dogs, or other pets, there are times I will go out of my way to make sure they feel safe, secure, and comfortable around me. **SERVICE DOG ALERT** Currently, I am also training a service dog for my needs. So I will just about always have a dog with me during my stays or drop ins. Please be advised before reaching out as my dog will be trained in socialization so that no behavior issues should be an issue from my end. *Note: If I do not have a current pet profile for an active Service Dog, that means I do not currently have one at this time. The warning above is for awareness when I offically have one. Please ask if not sure.* **AVAILABILITY** I have availability currently during afternoons and evenings to be able to make sure that your pets and furry family members are taken care of. Most of the time, my away time is due to my prior scheduled events or Rover work obligations prior to the booking. This is one of the reasons I ask that you please contact me ahead of time so adjustments can be made to best fit your pets and the best care that can be given! Should changes happen during the stay that were not previously discussed, it could affect the timing for when myself am able to get to you and your furry family. Average travel time to and from is 30 minutes each, so please keep in mind that your changes do affect the outcome of the stays time adherence. I try to be there within the estimated 30 minutes to an hour before the stay starts. **BOOKING** Due to receiving request sometimes either at the same time or the same duration of time, I try to adhere to the "first come first serve" basis. Priority will be given to those that are for sure on their plans. I am willing to wait until 24 hours of the initial contact in order to book, but after that time has passed and I do not have a solid answer, I can not guarantee your booking will be accepted. Thank you for your understanding. **PAYMENT** I allow for you to wait on your payments when it comes to your booking with your pet until the day of service. This is to help the owner in making sure their funds are taken care of before the booking is official. My prices are reflected as such due to expenses of insurance, possibly stay damage (in my home), transportation, or supplementary items that might need to be purchased such as food, toys, etc. If you would like specifics on the charges, you are more than welcome to ask prior to booking. I reserve the right to charge more depending on the conditions of the booking in case of undisclosed occurrences not discussed within the initial meeting (such as extra pets, non-training, etc). I will give full disclosure on my end, so I would expect the same of the owners so that way their pets are put at top priority during their stays. Currently, I am available in mornings and evenings due to weather conditions. High Cold/Heat and my disability do not work well, so my health comes first and I will have to do services accordingly. I am always within a phone call away and very active in making sure that any escape routes or potential getaway areas are secured and closed. For house stays, I am always with the dog, even when they go outside. Inside, I keep them in each room I am in actively as needed.
