Caring-Responsibale-Knowledgeable

Pet care experience

Some say dogs (and pets of all kinds) are people’s best friend. Yet they are so much more, they become a part of our heart and family furrever. It is this deep care and sense of responsibility I bring to my furry clients and their family. Furry friends are more than best friends they are a big responsibility. I have experience training and housebreaking my own dogs through positive reinforcement—never using punishment in teaching new tricks. When owners are away it can be an anxious time for pets, to help lower stress I am glad to create or bring special treats for your pup (with your permission) while your away. Examples a puppy cone of ice cream, or a king filled with goodness. Love long walk lead by a dog’s guidance gives furry friends the perfect opportunity to enjoy nature’s simple pleasures. We can wonder as they sniff or stick to your routine. With your pets in my care you can know they are my best friend for the day as I will keep you up to date on their activities and needs. Working from home with a flexible schedule I will meet your dogs basic needs keeping to their usual schedule. This is a guarantee if I accept your booking. I can only care for pets in their home due to the constraints of our lease. I will ensure each pet gets specialized attention, regular walks, play time, and ample snuggles on the floor or couch—pet owner’s preference. Pictures will be sent regularly through the Rover App so you can check in anytime the pet is in my care.

Christina was incredibly communicative, flexible, and caring. She sent us a lot of great shots of our dog and went above and beyond on all his walks!

A typical day

Accommodating your pup’s preferences and staying within your comfort zone, I will work with you to develop a schedule that suits your family and furry friend’s needs. Some special activities I enjoy with my pup and regular clients Is to visit near by pet-store (especially in the summer as it offers a place to cooldown while getting plenty of exercise). Walks at local parks with great sun and shade are a perfect place to sniff and wonder in greenspaces. I always carry water for your pup and have special freeze-dried liver treats that tag along (depending on pet allergies/dietary needs). For longer stays I am happy to create special treat such as pup safe ice-cream come or Kong filled with goodness.
