Pet care experience

*I am walks and wags pet first aid and CPR certified *I have my own pet care insurance with Profur I have been an animal lover all my life. I grew up with cats and dogs and lived on a hobby farm as a child. My strong love of animals drove me to volunteer at domestic and wildlife shelters. This eventually led to me getting a job at a local wildlife rehabilitation centre. I worked there for years as a wildlife technician. I started in the roll of Junior Wildlife Assistant and within one year became a Wildlife Supervisor - going from assisting in examinations in animal care to leading examinations and training others in animal care. I also worked at a local rescue for senior and special needs domestic and farm animals. I have experience with many different types of cats and dogs, including ones with special needs, and have a great understanding of animal behaviour. I rescued a reactive dog and trained him to be calm and balanced. I have three animals, a beautiful cat with the sweetest personality that my family adopted 20 years ago. A cuddly and loving stray cat that showed up at my doorstep 12 years ago and a gentle goofy 100lb old english bulldog. These are the services I offer and what you can expect when booking with me. At the moment I am only offering solo 30 minute on leash neighborhood walks. I am also offering drop in visits for cats and dogs. I will provide water and treats for your pup (if they have any allergies please let me know). I send a lot of cute pictures and give detailed updates and feedback. I require a meet up before hand to learn about your dog and to make sure I am a good fit. If you have any training techniques you are using please show me them and I will make sure to apply those while walking your dog. I believe in FF/R+ training. I am comfortable working with nervous/reactive dogs. And most important I will give your pup tons of love and make sure they are always safe and having a great time! DROP IN VISITS I do drop in visits for cats and dogs. This will include feeding and giving water. Cleaning litter box. Taking outside for potty. Giving medication. Or just being a friend for your pet to hang out with for a while. If you need someone to administer oral/injectable medication I can do that for you. Working as a wildlife technician I learned basic medical care for pets so I am trained in doing subcutaneous fluids and injections, minor wound care and bandage changing. I can also do in your home blood glucose readings for diabetic pets. I have my own AlphaTrak3 reader and test strips. I can do nail clippings, ear cleaning and many other things. Just ask :) HOUSE SITTING - IN YOUR HOME Depending on availability I can sometimes do house sitting. Please message me and I will let you know if it works for me.

Awesome visit. My cat normally hates strangers, but for some magical, unknown reason to me - the cat has no problem with Clare and is social around her. Would absolutely recommend.

Clare checked in on our cats while we were away. (Fed them etc) and sent us photos. Would recommend. No issues.

Clare is great with our excitable labradoodle. She’s relaxed and confident and knows how to manage his energetic personality. He got lots of exercise on each walk and came home ready to nap!

Clare is amazing! My boy Duke can be a bit nervous around people, which causes him to bark. Clare was very calm and handled his nervousness very well. She also had lots of questions about how we work with Duke and makes sure to follow our training plan. Plus, she takes Duke to all the places he loves, including the creek! I know Duke is very well taken care of when Clare is with him!
