Stay calm, patient, and understanding. Important to Remember this is a pet that is outside of "their normal". Follow mom/dads instructions. Let the dog lead the relationship. Works for me everytime. My home/yard are safe and ment to be as comfortable as possible. We're a very relaxed household. Your kiddo will Never be left unattended or alone. You can expect regular pictures, updates, and Rover cards while I am sitting for you. In addition to special lil moments we will share or when they make me laugh. My standards and expectations for the care of animals is extremely high. I myself struggle with leaving my pups behind. I tell you this because my "nobody's good enough" outlook, is what makes me a compassionate, attentive, and aware sitter. I understand the anxieties of a stranger taking good care of your baby. Once we all meet, your pooch will tell you thier in good hands. DOG'S really do KNOW best. I promise, I'll go out of my way to help you feel confident in me. As a new family member and safe sitter choice.
