ABOUT ME: HI there! My Husband, Darit, my son and our two dogs Magik (black labrador mix) and Zazel (chihuahua mix) happily reside in Burbank. Darit works in real-estate and I do acting. Originally, we hail from Des Moines, Iowa! I can't wait to take care of your dogs and or cats. I’m a dog-mom myself so, I understand the special and very dear love that we hold for our pets. Rest be assured, your furry family members will be treated with love and good care. MY EXPERIENCE: I worked as a dog sitter and walker for a company in LA called DogerciseLA. I would travel around LA multiple times a day to walk, "check-in" and overnight-sit for all kinds of dogs, cats and animals. It was an absolute blast! The company owners were very hands on with educating their employees on how to deal with challenging situations that a dog walker might face while on the job. For example: - a dog overheating - how to physically separate a dog fight - how to ward off and redirect a lost dog from coming in contact with me and the dog I'm caring after. - how to ease seperation anxiety - how to administer oral medication ...and many others. I am armed with helpful knowledge to best handle these sticky situations. Hopefully, that gives you some peace of mind. As a dog owner, I always wonder how well other dog sitters react to this kind of adversity. Another job I held when I was about 23 years old, was scrubbing poop and pee off of the bottom of dog cages at a dog kennel called, The Barking Lot, in Des Moines, Iowa. So, I ain't afraid to git dirty! :) WHAT TO EXPECT: We will have a blast! I look forward to getting acquainted with their unique quirks and personality. I want to know all about them, you and what you both need to feel at ease during our time together!
