Pet care experience
There has never been a time when I have not had a dog at home. From 5 lbs to 120 lbs, I have snuggled and played with them all. My dogs have always been a part of my family and get treated as such. I started taking on various responsibilities with caring for my family's dogs at the young age of six. I have been independently taking care of dogs for eight years. Currently, I have a brachycephalic breed. She is my world. I get nervous just leaving her with family, as I demand whoever is watching her show her the love and affection she deserves. I recognize that each breed of dog comes with unique traits that make us smile and some pesky, less desirable idiosyncrasies. I would love to learn more about what makes your dog unique so that I can cater my care to their specific needs, preferences, and comfortability. As a pet parent, I've been in your shoes. I promise to treat your buddy as special as they are, following every guideline or request you might have.
Reviews
Chava was so reassuring to me as a new dog mom, and very sweet to my very timid puppy. Chava provided advice, pictures, and handled everything professionally while caring for my dog overnight! I would 1000% recommend Chava :)
This was my fifth time leaving Roxy with Chava. Roxy loves spending time with her and Joy, is always excited to go (until she remembers that means mom is leaving) and is well taken care of. Chava was also extremely flexible and communicative when it looked like I may have been bumped to a later flight, needing to change my pickup time to the next day. I will be booking Chava again!
Peaches is somewhat timid and takes a while to warm up to someone. I think Chava has successfully started a process with Peaches. I think Chava will do well for the longer vacation. Thank you Chava!
Chava took care of my dog for a week when our regular dog sitter wasn’t available. She made everything easy and smooth and my dog came back well cared for and happy as ever. Chava was very understanding when I had to extend my trip as well. Highly recommend!
About Chava S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a social pup who has never met a being she did not like - in my environment or yours, she goes wherever I go. If you or your pet are not comfortable with my dog interacting with your pet or being in your environment, please do not book me. I have baskets of dog balls, overflowing containers of dog toys, and cabinets full of different dog treats. Whatever you are comfortable with me sharing with your pup, my environment is entirely dog friendly. There is nothing in my environment that your dog can get into or destroy that mine has not already explored or damaged. I invite your dog to follow me from room to room, burrow into my furniture, or snuggle in my bed. I can make almost any accommodations to fit your dog’s and your comfort. ALL SERVICES: Please inform me if there are recording devices on the property I will be entering. I'm comfortable being recorded, and if you do not wish to share where the devices are located, that's ok with me (as long as I will not be filmed using the restroom or changing clothing). WALKING SERVICES: I will not walk your dog if it is more than 85 degrees outside. I am more than happy to take them outside to use the bathroom and play for a few minutes to get them some exercise, but I will not risk any dog having a heat-related medical emergency.

Information Chava S. would like to know about your pet
It is vital that I know anything relating to your dog and potential aggression. I can still work with dogs who have aggressive traits, but I must be aware of them for safety.
A typical day
I love to play, snuggle, and give physical affection. Some dogs like tummy rubs, head pats, or booty scratches - I can provide them all. My pup is also extremely social. She will play with whoever is interested. Together, we will return a sleepy, satisfied dog after a visit with us.
