Dependable-kind-quick communicator

Pet care experience

I've had a lovable 90-pound chocolate lab for 9 years and adopted a senior cat at the beginning of 2020. I did drop-in care for a dog in college as a side-job. In the 6 years since then, I am the go-to helper for friends, family, and coworkers needing help with their pets for drop-in visits and walks. I'm currently working from home with flexibility to make visits and walks during the workday. I love dogs and am always up for a dog-walk and a some puppy playtime alongside my 8-5 job! I can do overnight stays at your home or daytime walks or visits. I'm a positive, dependable person, and exceptionally honest and trustworthy which I know is important when welcoming someone into your space to care for your pet. I'm a quick and easy communicator which makes coordinating schedules and plans super easy. Get in touch if it sounds like we're on the same page and I'd love to chat! Happy to provide character references if you'd like, feel free to ask anytime! I work from home during the week so as long as I don’t have a work meeting scheduled, I am free to schedule a visit! I treat your home with care and respect, utilizing o lay the spaces needed to care for your pet. If questions or concerns come up, I will communicate quickly to ensure a positive experience!

Claire has been a big part of our dog Tucker's life. She always tries to make her schedule work for us when we need her. Claire is extremely reliable and trustworthy as we have had her for drop-ins as well as house-sitting for us when we would be gone for extended holidays. She is such a caring person. We couldn't ask for better care of our fur-baby.She takes care of Tucker as if he is her own.

Information Claire M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behavioral concerns so I can ensure I am prepared to give them the best care! For especially large dogs, it’s helpful to know what commands work best for them to sit, stay, heel, etc so we can remain safe when walking or passing by other walkers and dogs.

A typical day

I will match the preferred style and needs of your pet! Some pets are high energy and I’m happy to play fetch or take them on a long walk, others want cuddles and a more low-energy walk or time with company. If your pet likes car rides or special treats, let me know!
