Experienced dog sitter

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m new to Charlottesville. I work for UVA as a researcher. Growing up, I had a Retriever mix and now I regularly dog sit for a Corgi and an Australian Shepherd, so I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I work during the week, so I would prefer to dog sit during the weekends, but I can take dogs on walks and drop in in the mornings before 8:30 or in the evenings after 6 on weekdays as well. I have experience watching older dogs, making sure they take various medications and adhere to stricter dietary restrictions, and with puppies, going on long walks and working on training and positive reinforcement. I love all dogs and can’t wait to meet yours!

Claire was so wonderful with our senior dog. She took excellent care of him and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated!

Claire was great with our pup, Maya! She provided steady communication (including some really cute update pics), was super open with instructions, and stayed with Maya as much as she could. We couldn't recommend her enough!

I have no breed preferences, but I would like to know about their temperament and daily routine before sitting, I like to set a meet and greet before booking any services.
