Animals are my passion!

Pet care experience

I love animals. My partner and I have 1 cat, 1 hamster, 2 dogs, 2 Guinea pigs, and several small critters/fish. They can be a handful at times but very important part of our family. I am from a small town so I learned how dangerous the big city can be for pets, so I always keep safety in mind for the fur kids. I have a good experience caring for sick pets because of my cat who has FIV and my dog who had a knee replacement. I enjoy the walks as much as the dogs do. I am very vigilant when out in public because cars, stray dogs, and dog-nappers (it’s a thing). I also am very courteous and respectful when entering other peoples homes. I enjoy caring and loving animals because they try to do the same for us humans. I am currently working part time at a local hospital in the emergency room. On the side during my days off, I work side gigs for extra cash. I always wanted to have a small business and figured this is a good way to gain experience with managing myself and my time. I make sure all my cats are indoor cats. They were raised that way so they are only allowed outside time with a fence or cage. I'm with them the whole time. With my dog I make sure he is never home alone for too long and crate train them. My pets are essentially my kids so I do the most for their health and safety.

Denise came to my place and I was really pleased with her interaction with my cat. She took the time to play and get acquainted with her. Unfortunately, the following visits were not as good. It seems from her noted that my cat was not welcoming and Denise could not interact with her. This is the first time something like this happens. I was on vacation so I could not observe what was going g on. Despite the visits were shorts, Denise made sure the cat had food and water. She cleaned the litter as well and took the mail as I asked her. The overall rating is due to the entire situation and it is not tagrgeting Denise's services. I will keep asking for her help when in need.

Information Denise G. would like to know about your pet

I like to know the dogs personality type, energy level, and how they react to strangers. Any diet restrictions and any treats they are allowed to have.

A typical day

During walks I like having the dog pee until their hearts content. During walks I enjoy areas that as less crowded, clean, and away from hazards. I normally like having dog walks in the shade because the floor will give off heat during really hot days. When I watch pets for the day or even over night I enjoy napping with the pets. I also Like having them watch pet TV on Youtube. I basically find a video that catches their eye and let them watch TV until they fall asleep. It's usually a bird or squirrel eating in the forest.
