Pet care experience
I am employed full time and will only be able to do walks and/or visits that are early morning and evening. For House sitting I provide overnight care and a morning and evening walk For Boarding we only accept dogs that get along with other dogs, and are crate trained as my husband as he works from home and we have a dog of our own. Christine worked in an Emergency Vet Clinic as a Receptionist and Kennel Assistant for 2 years, has worked closely with Animal Behaviorists, worked part time at the Seattle Humane Society, and has done work with a non profit that trains shelter dogs for military veterans. Christine grew up with cats, but has been around her extended families dogs her whole life. Charles grew up with dogs and had multiple dogs in his unit in the military. We have 1 dog who is our whole world. She is a very sweet and patient mixed breed who loves meeting new fur friends. She is excellent at teaching puppies manners and works well with insecure or shy dogs. Astrid is wonderful with dogs of all sizes and never uses her size to her advantage when it comes to smaller dogs. We operate under Boba Fetch Pet Care LLC a fully licensed and a insured business registered in Washington State. Christine is pet CPR/First Aid certified and has taken multiple online courses regarding animal behavior, psychology, and training. She also reads many books on training and behavior and is always trying to improve her communication skills with animals. Charles is a HUGE dog lover, and helps out whenever time permits. He is often found snuggling dogs on the sofa or in bed. The dogs that stay with us gravitate towards him, even those with a fear of men or strangers often warm up to him very easily. We take pet care very seriously, your pet is a member of your family and we want to make sure he or she is happy, healthy, understood, well cared for, and feels like a member of our family during their stay. We are comfortable giving medications, working with difficult, nervous and/or reactive animals, seniors, puppies, and giving love and affection to those that may need more attention than others. We are also comfortable caring for pets of all types including (but not limited to) cats, rabbits, gerbils, snakes, turtles, spiders, and birds. Your pet would be treated like our own and loved while they are with us.
