Pet care experience

Your Pet, My Honor and Privilege

I began home sitting dogs in my home beginning 2000, and continued for about 3 years. My clients came self referred and wanted the home environment for their animals as some were seniors and needed the serene setting. I do have a little 15 lb. dog of my own, as I have always had a dog in my life for companionship. We love taking walks and taking care of plants and our surroundings whether it be a hotel room or our own home. Beginning 2021 while working for Vail School District as a Crossing Guard (because I love our 🇺🇸country and want to contribute ☦ in some way) I started Rover pet care and have developed some treasured relationships with more lovely families and their beloved pets in the Tucson area.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, pets will be inside, fenced or leashed up. With your dog, this would not change, unless you do not have a fenced yard. Then the pet would still be leashed or inside.

Brenda was so caring for mine and my daughter’s dogs, one of which is 18. She stayed the night with them and took them for walks, sent pictures and asked questions about anything that came up. I will definitely use her again.

Brenda is great - she takes very good care our dog and home - it is very comforting having her stay and take care of our dog. She always goes above and beyond and everything is clean and well kept.

Brenda is fantastic, she watched our dog in our home and as we are new to Rover were a little apprehensive in the beginning. Brenda provided a very comforting, trustworthy and exceptional care service. She has exceptional communications with you as needed through out the sitting and provided comforting care for our dog. We already have booked future plans w/ Brenda watching our dog and we highly recommend her to any others

Schedule

I am seeking other opportunities for extending my passion for dogs to others. We go to the local parks daily and love getting out in the neighborhood for walks and socialization. We occasionally try to slip some training in with a few familiar commands. We get frozen drummets for treats or "snack" if we've eaten our raw food "snack bowl". Finding Hazen likes frozen gizzards and necks too. Because ya can't find a lot of the Made in USA chicken treats anymore.

If caring for your dog in my home, I prefer they have some discipline and good manners. I am currently still working with my dog on training so I think if the dog and owner want, we can introduce new commands or tricks! In some cases, I feel.safer when I put the leash around my waist so the dog is tethered to me and less likey to get loose when walking.
