Quirky and Punctual Pet Lover

Pet care experience

I have been caring for animals since I was a child. I started small with hamster and fish, eventually teaching myself to care for larger species through rigorous online teachings and experience. I work part time so that I can spend as much time working with and caring for animals as possible. Ideally taking care of at least 3 pets a day would be best case for me. I do not have the ability to care for pets in my home but I do have the knowledge and experience to crate fur babies when needed without causing them distress. I am familiar with getting animals of all domestic sizes into a state of calm for walks or sleep time or even cuddles after a long day of missing their folks.

We just love D! The care and attention they've given our 'baby" girl is beyond wonderful. They really do go out of their way to ensure her safety nd well being as well as feeling loved and happy!

D is just amazing! Our 12yo sweet and sassy Carlee loved them right from the initial meet and greet! When I found out they had a pit bull mix who was also a senior like our girl, I felt at ease knowing she would be in good hands. Their personality is very warm and you can tell how much they love furbabies. We hired them initially as our new dog walker to replace our permanent one who moved out of state and felt so comfortable with the TLC they showed Carlee during her walks that after one week we hired them to sit for our girl while we went away for 5 days. I love how D pays attention to detail. They wanted to make sure that they knew our golden girl from her walking routine, how she interacts with dogs and people, to her feeding and special treats routine, which is a bit extensive, all the way down to the way she likes to cuddle. We never worried a minute while we were away because D had everything under control. They even went above and beyond in taking our girl to the vet twice for previously scheduled laser therapy appointments. They also took great care of things around the house from watering the plants, bringing in our mail, even replacing the water jug to our dispenser when it got empty. D is very friendly, reliable, trustworthy and I love receiving their in depth updates with daily pictures and videos regarding our baby and her behavior. It was such a comfort knowing that our girl could stay comfortable and happy in her routine at home. We are so glad we found D and HIGHLY recommend them and their pet sitting and walking services!!

Information D F. would like to know about your pet

I work well with all sorts of dogs. I do like to know their triggers ahead of time though so I can be mindful of what might set them off during a stay or a walk. If your dog needs any special attention during the walk so they can have the most fun please let me know !

A typical day

My favourite activities with dogs are spending time in the park playing fetch or learning new tricks. I really enjoy tiring out my four legged friends with time in the sun, or rain if they like water ! Having grass to run around on is always preferred for me so the risk of paws getting injured is minimised. My own furry friend has sensitive paws so I like to make sure all the pups I meet have a good safe time with me.
