Eat. Play. Love.

Pet care experience

I treat every animal as if they were my own. I want you to have peace of mind when you are away from your home that your animal is well taken care of. A long with excersice and a watchful eye, I provide mental enrichment to all of my fur clients in diffrent ways that include scent trails, treat puzzles and different walking routes. I have experience working with animals from all types of diffrent situations. I started my career with animals when I was employed at a borading and daycare facility where I acted as a caregiver and administered medications, prepared specialized food, and gave love and spent time with the animals. I also over saw large playgroups of dogs, often exceeding 20 at one time, as well as assisted in hydro thearpy for dogs who were elderly or disabled. When I moved to the city, my heart grew bigger as I began working with shelter animals at The Humane society on the northside and later at Animals Friends, a no kill animal shelter in the north hills that has vast outreach programs to educate the community on propper ways to enrich your animals, as well as training options and even a class on how to introduce a baby into your home while allready having a dog! All of my past jobs in animal care and most of all my current, have given me the knowledge and expirence necessary to care for your furry loved one.

Information Cara S. would like to know about your pet

I have Zero breed prefrence, all animals are individual. I would like to know before meeting does your animal have a bite history? (I dont judge, usually it's human error) Does your pet have a prefrence to men or women? How is your pet on a leash? (do they pull, do they chase small creatures, do they react to other dogs or people) And what type of training methods do you use or have used? (professional trainer, shock collars, crate training ect.)

A typical day

Long Hikes in the woods, or a stroll around Frick Park for your furbaby to get in all those great scents! Along with treat puzzles and games for mental enrichment :)
