Pet care experience
I am a natural caretaker and love caring for pets of my own and my friends and family. I have cared for pets for most of my life and am excited to offer my services to pet owners in the DC area. I have a cat of my own, a 2 year old black cat named Binx who is full of energy and affection. He has all my love and cuddles. I also help my family care for their dog Isabella, a 7 year old terrier/lab mix who loves going on long walks with me and throwing the ball in the yard. She had a partner until recently named Chico, a greyhound/lab mix, who was full of affection and had some arthritis in his back legs that required extra care. My mom is handicapped so I supported her in getting him extra equipment, driving him to and from the vet, and exercising him regularly within his movement range. Before this, I cared for our family dog, a yellow lab named Lilly, from middle school through high school and college. I help a roommate of mine with her cat Lela, a talkative and sassy lady who started coming into my room for morning cuddles and talks. We also had two cats when I was young, Precious and Cokey, who tolerated me smothering them with love in the way kids do.
Reviews
Came through in a pinch when my dogs were sick and was great with them.
Corinne has been great! We've had her for a drop-in a few weeks ago as well as house sitting for the holidays this past week, and with all the Southwest cancellations plus a COVID delay on our trip, she was far more accommodating than she needed to be which allowed us to easily reschedule our trip. Not to mention she took our dog for long walks and I think even a short hike, so we came back to a happy dog. We'll continue to use her as long as her availability allows!
Corinne is a wonderful dog sitter/walker. She’s been so helpful with my dog as he heals from a paw injury. Can’t recommend Corinne highly enough!
Corinne took our pup on for our last minute request over a holiday, and not only responded quickly, took great care of our dog, but was incredibly accommodating to some special unforeseen circumstances that happened during our time away. Helpful, easygoing, amazing.

Unfortunately I cannot host at my apartment as I am only allowed my own cat, but I am happy to travel to client homes if they are comfortable with that set up.

Information Corinne M. would like to know about your pet
I don't have breed preferences, I have more experience with larger dogs but feel I could care for all breeds with instruction from owners about any special needs the dogs may have.
A typical day
I love taking long walks with dogs, but am also up for other activities for animals that need more running or ways to get their energy out. Growing up I loved taking my dog swimming and playing fetch by the water, so if that is something your dog enjoys as well I'd love to do that with them. I also like taking dogs to the park to play fetch or play with other dogs to get some good socialization time in. I am also willing to take dogs out on runs - I personally usually run about 2-3 miles at a time 1-2 times a week, so can run with a dog while dog sitting as well.

Availability
I currently work most weekday evenings and Sundays and have daytime flexibility, so I'd love to offer support during time when many are at a 9-5 job or on weekends during travel.
