I have 20+ years experience working with animals both as an ex vet tech and in the rescue world. I offer pet sitting in your home.

Information Colleen P. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences. I would like to know: medical history that I need...any medications they take, anything I need to look for (such as a history of seizures). I want to know about their personality. Are they friendly and outgoing and love playing or are they shy where I should wait for them to feel comfortable enough to come to me? I want to make sure I am doing whats best for each animal..and like people..they are all different!
A typical day
Time I'll spend with your dog Thats up to you. Some people just want someone to stop by and check on them quickly (esp if the dog is nervous around new people). In that case I would let them out to potty, feed, water, etc and leave before they get too anxious. Other people want their baby to be babied! For them I stay, play, maybe snuggle on the couch and watch tv with them..whatever is best for the pet Extra house-sitting services Yes. Part of the advantage of having someone care for your baby in your home is having the appearance that someone is home. Car coming and going, lights going on and off, no mail or papers building up, etc...
