20+ Years of Loving Dog Care Exp.

Pet care experience

When caring for anyone's pets, I treat them as I have treated my own. I love cats & dogs, love to spend time with them, and do so whenever I can. I've cared for dogs for over 20 years, & I love them. Very comfortable taking care of multiple dogs; I grew up with no less than 3 dogs of all different types & sizes (was up to 6 at one point) & I still care for my family's 4 dogs all the time. I should note that I haven't had as much experience with cats, but I love them too and am comfortable taking care of them as well. A little more about my experience: I have cared for pups, dogs, & elder folk (dogs, not people). I have years of experience caring for blind, arthritic, deaf, & diabetic dogs as well as dogs with thyroid issues, GI issues, & general doggy health stuffs (may be too icky to list here, just ask me). Comfortable taking care of healthy & sick dogs. On short notice, I'm only available weekday evenings & Friday evenings through Monday mornings for weekends. With more notice, I can be more flexible with my availability. Pretty willing to find a setup that works for you. Just contact me. Photo Notes: -The blonde lady you see with one of the doggies in my photos is my good friend & housemate, Kirsten, another experienced dog (& cat) caretaker who can come over with me to help walk (if more than 4 dogs to be walked in an evening) and play with the dogs too, if you would like her to. Animals tend to love her just as much as they love me. :) -Out of respect to others & their dogs (respect the privacy of both), the majority of my posted pictures of me (& Kirsten) are with my dogs. The exception is the photo of Kirsten with Beau, a friend's dog whom we've both cared for. Also, there aren't any photos of either of us playing with most of the dogs, because the playful pups are a bit camera shy. (Only the sleepy, snuggle hungry Pugs don't really notice the camera) :)

Dani watched our 2 dogs, Chilli and Ozzy, for the second time this past weekend and was great. Every picture we got of Chilli, she was sitting in Dani's lap and when Ozzy had a little accident and got scared after he knocked over a step stool, Dani was genuinely concerned about him and calmed him down until she could get him to eat his food.

Great to have Dani back last week - she is easy to keep in touch with, very responsive, friendly, and the dogs clearly love her!

Dani watched our 2 dogs, Chilli and Ozzy, for 5 days this past week. She took great care of them, sent pictures and updates daily and our house was cleaner than we left it when we came home. She also helped us out by keeping in touch about problems we were having with our heat and made sure to leave our keys in the lock box when asked so the plumber could let himself in when she was at work to work on it. We hope to use her services again in the future.

Information Dani B. would like to know about your pet

Need to know: how dog is around strangers (for walks) and other animals, general tendencies (nervous peeing & such), aggressiveness, commands known/thoroughly trained on.

A typical day

Walks: nearby ponds & parks (to owner's location). I will play tug & fetch, will race with more energetic dogs (so long as they don't bite/nip when excited), and other games as per the owner's suggestion. Also, not too grown up to seriously play blanket monster (hand moving under a blanket) and such games for dogs that like to have fun with that. :)
