Huge Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

I am a huge animal lover. I have had 12 years of experience caring for animals. I live in the middle of town, close to a park and that means that your puppies can go on plenty of walks and play all they want. I have always had family pets and have experience caring for all ages and types of animals. I know basic animal first aid and have experience giving medication. I do lite grooming such as baths, flee dips, and brushing. I want to work for Rover part-time because I want a job with some fun and flexibility. I consider pets members of the family so your pets will get all the cuddles they want and the care and attention they deserve. I am currently working part-time and am off on weekends so I have plenty of time to play with your puppy. I am available weekdays after 1500 I have a fenced in yard with a friendly puppy to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if need be.

As this was my pet’s first time away from me or home (for an extended amount of time) in over 2 years we were both anxious. In an attempt to minimize both our anxieties I booked an overnight stay with Deanna prior. During which time my fur baby was extremely anxious and restless. Fortunately we had meds to combat this and a very patient Deanna who was not deterred by Laci’s restlessness. I should also mention that Laci was scheduled for a Right TPLO surgery (partially torn ACL) 2 days after picking her up. After communicating with Deanna, and providing feeding schedule and prescribed medication needs I felt comfortable leaving her behind. I was updated multiple times, daily. Upon picking up my baby, as always she was happy to see me and quite playful. After Arriving home there were no changes with her attitude or personality. And her ‘bad leg’ was the same. 2 I’ve had a rather bad experience with River and had stopped boarding Laci, but Deanna made me comfortable in my decision in leaving Laci with her. Once she’s fully healed I would certainly set up a few overnight ears with her again.

Information Deanna S. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting or walking I want to know about their temperament, their social skills with children as well as other dogs, and any bad behaviors such as guarding, snapping, being food aggressive, etc. I love all dogs, but I am drawn more towards Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Boxers, Yorkies, German Shepherds, Huskies, Corgis, Rat Terrier, Jack Russells, and Labs. I will also do cats, horses, goats, cows, tea cup pigs, rabbits, and guinea pigs.

A typical day

My location is in the city, where there is a park for them to run and play. I have lots of toys and enjoy playing games like tug and fetch! I have a wading pool for the dogs who like water. I also offer bathing and grooming services (I am a certified dog groomer) to make your dog fresh and relaxed. Free unlimited cuddles and kisses!!!
