Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Camy and I use they/them pronouns. I've taken care of and trained dogs, horses and other pets since I was 9. Between 2005 and 2011, I would take my neighbors dogs out for runs, would rehabilitate horses with behavioral difficulties at my local riding center, volunteered at multiple animal shelters and rode million dollar trotter racehorses on Sundays to strengthen their backs. In 2011, I worked at a dogsledding facility, where I took care of 30 sled dogs, the occasional boarder, and trained the litter of puppies. Since, I have mostly been taking care of friends' pets here and there, but now that I am done with graduate school, I am looking for more opportunities to have furry friends in my life again! I work from home part time as a self-employed tutor Monday-Thursday 1-8pm, so your pet would have company all day! I generally take dogs on longer walks in the morning, around noon and after 8, and can also take pets out for shorter potty breaks in between meetings 1-8pm. I provide dog/pet sitting services in your home and am happy to follow any routines you usually have with your pet such as putting your pet in a crate while I'm out, observing regular feeding times, administering medication, etc. I usually keep dogs on leash unless your request otherwise and the dog has strong recall. Happy to answer any other safety-related questions!

So grateful for Camy! Really appreciate their willingness to help us out in a pinch, and take such great care of our Furbabies. Camy came to meet them and see our home, asked great Qs, and instantly bonded with both dogs. By the next morning even our most shy pup was happy to be pet and play with them. Great communication and exceedingly fair in discussing arrangements. Thank you so much Camy, we're so happy to have found a great sitter in our neighborhood.

Camy was absolutely amazing! We have two dogs and one with medical needs who requires a lot of attention. They kept us updated regularly regarding his medications, and it brought us so much security during our time out of town. Our house was kept clean, too. When our flight got delayed and we weren't able to come home until later than initially planned, Camy was able to alter their schedule to make sure that Harvey was taken care of. We cannot recommend them enough.

Camy was great with our pups! They took them to meet/hang out with chickens (which was a great experience!) and also spent wonderful time snuggling on the couch. The updates and pics were enough to show the great time they were having. Our pups were totally relaxed and appropriately exhausted when we came back from our trip. Thanks Camy!

Camy was a superb dog sitter for our quirky little pup! Our dog, Hachi has two operating speeds: asleep or mischievous. The latter needs a dog sitter who is attentive and has a good sense of humor, we found both in Cam and are so appreciative they took such great care of Hachi while we were away. We came home to a clean apartment and a very happy doggie. They were super communicative, which we really appreciated. If Cam can care for our dog I’m confident they can care for anyone’s dog, I very much recommend!

Information Camy (they/them) S. would like to know about your pet

I like knowing what your dog needs to be as comfortable as possible while you are away! Please let me know your pup's energy levels, typical behaviors, fears (cars, skateboards, other dogs, children etc.) so that i know to reach out if something is unusal and can know how to avoid difficult situstions for your pup.

A typical day

I love ensuring the dogs I watch get what they need! For some dogs, that's following their routine, for others it's providing novelty and stimulation! Whether we go on a hike, run, beach day or just the regular walk around the block, I ensure your pets have a great time.
