Zookeeper and pet lover!!
Pet care experience
I've been caring for animals my whole life in different ways! In high school I worked at a doggy daycare/ kennel for two years where I learned how to care for lots of different dog breeds and cater my care to their specific needs. After that I worked for a year and a half at a popular pet supply store where I learned what your pets like from food, treats, and toys! And now I work as an animal care professional (zookeeper) at the Birmingham Zoo; although I'm not taking care of traditional cats and dogs everyday, I provide top notch care for several various species and provide them the best care possible everyday! All of these different kinds of animal care experiences throughout my life makes me the perfect candidate to provide well rounded care for your beloved fur baby!
Reviews
Camryn was a wonderful drop in sitter for our dog. She sent photos and feedback with each of her 4xs daily visits. Highly recommend!
Everything was great! Camryn was super and I won’t hesitate to book her again!
Great communication and came home to a happy healthy cat.
Camryn made leaving my pups a little less hard. She was reliable, neat and a great communicator! Highly recommend!
About Camryn K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When at your home, boundaries and a routine is key! I will make sure that I am consistently on time, follow the routine and expectations you want for your fur baby, and communicate everything about my visit back to you in a timely manner!
Information Camryn K. would like to know about your pet
I really would appreciate knowing if there's anything to look out for or to be mindful of when I'm with your pup. If there's any behavioral concerns that might come up when we're out and about (i.e. leash aggression, prey drive, dog aggression, etc.). Medical conditions that might flare up, or need to be treated when we're together (i.e. diabetes, IBS, arthritis, epilepsy, allergies, etc.). And lastly, what's the quickest way to their hearts! Is a good snuggle, a treat, or a long walk the way to become their bestie!
A typical day
No one knows your pup like you do, and no one knows their preferences like you do. If you and your pup have a preferred trail or area you like to play at and walk through I'm more than happy to take them there to keep them consistent with their routine. But if there's more flexibility in where we can go, I'd love to take your pup around to new walking paths and areas so they can get the most enriching and exciting experience out of our time together! I also love having a good old fashioned game of tug-o-war and fetch for days when your pup just wants a little bit less adventurous day, as well as the occasional pup cup (if permitted) to really seal the deal on a day of fun!
