Energetic, On-Time, and Prepared
Pet care experience
I've grown up with dogs and have been dog-sitting friends' dogs for over 10 years. I am a law student who is looking to get some exercise in by walking dogs. I also firmly believe in puppy therapy. My experience includes house-training two puppies and I trained both dogs on basic commands and leash walking. I have dog-sat at other people's homes and have also just walked dogs for friends when they have been out of town. As a student, especially during the summer, I have an extremely flexible schedule. I can make any time work and am happy to accommodate requests. I am efficient, orderly, and pay attention to detail. I want your dog to feel comfortable around me and to feel at home.
Reviews
Deeva S. has sat our two maltipoos on multiple occasions. She is the reason we can go away knowing our "boys" are cared for as if by family. Deeva gave our anxious one his medication and made sure he didn't eat carpet threads as he sometimes does. They especially loved their walks with her and when we got home, they were as happy as if we never left! I recommend her as your dog caregiver without reservation.

Information Deeva S. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences. I would like to know how active your dog is before sitting him or her. I would like to know what training the dog has received and what level of house-training your dog has achieved. I also prefer to know if the dog has any medical conditions I should know about and any habits or tendencies (such as carpet-chewing or chewing furniture) that I should be aware of. I love knowing a dogs favorite treats and toys and what your general disciplinary methods are, so that I can match my dog-sitting or walking with your regular activity.
A typical day
This depends on your dog and how active he or she is; however, I am willing to take the dog on hikes, runs, jogs, or just short walks. If your dog is well-socialized or you would like for me to help your dog become more accustomed to other people or even other dogs, I would love to take your dog on walks in more crowded areas or to a nearby dog park. I am always down for a good game of fetch. I also love dog training so I have no problem with continuing any training you have started to work on that during the day to make sure your new (or old) puppy has all the attention necessary.
