Pet care experience

Caring for pets is my passion!

I have been caring for dogs for my friends and family since I was 10 years old. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I have also worked with puppies, geriatric dogs, and dogs with special medical needs, and I can reliably administer medication with minimal stress to the pet. I prioritize calm, comfortable, and compassionate care that meets the unique requirements of each dog I care for.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In my own home I provide a quiet, calm environment with many pet beds, a fenced yard, large windows, high places, and areas and rooms that can be completely from one another. In clients homes, I care for pets by communicating before the service to establish boundaries and access instructions as well as meet the pets. Before getting to the property, I tell the client I am on my way. Then when I provide the care, I enter the property as instructed and feed and water the pet/s (including medication if needed). Then I change litter, bedding, pee pads, etc. Then I do any grooming that the pets need. After that I socialize and play with the pets if they are comfortable with that. Before leaving I clean anything else that needs to be cleaned. Then I leave and secure the property as instructed and send a message to the client to update them.

Please let me know if your pet has any behavioral concerns such as escaping, aggression, anxiety, etc. If your pet takes a medication, please let me know how much and how often to administer it. I also love giving treats, so let me know if your pet has any allergies, sensitivities, or foods that they can’t have.
