A good day ends with fur on clothes

Pet care experience

It’s simple I guess: nothing in the world makes me happier than being around dogs. I love caring for pups big and small and learning about what makes them your special four-legged friend. ****I currently have a senior Chihuahua mix and**** I have experience with handling everyone from temperamental pups to calm senior dogs and enjoy them all. I am currently working full-time during daytime hours, but I’m able to watch dogs that need check-ins mornings and evenings and overnight care. Located in Inner SE Portland and able to drive. I have no specific allergies and am happy to cater to special diets for your pet when necessary. Give me a call! I would love to meet you and snuggle and adventure with your dog :)

Chitra was amazing! She’s a great communicator, very caring for our pup, and took some amazing photos. Even with some travel hiccups on our end, she made sure Yogi was cared for.

Information Chitra S. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know if your pet is leash reactive, has separation anxiety, or can only be left alone for a certain amount of time. I also have a small senior dog right now so if I stay with your pup, they’ll need to be dog friendly. My best interactions are with clients who share a lot of information up front :)

A typical day

Possible activities include... walks through Laurelhurst park, waterfront strolls, doggie beer porch?, lots of cuddles, fetch if they like that! I promise to shower your dog with love!

I currently work from home with my pup by my side and would be happy to care for another dog-friendly canine (or feline) during that time. I would exercise them during breaks morning, midday, and in the evening.
