All animals,individualized care!

Pet care experience

Bully breeds loved and welcomed! I have spent my entire life around animals; many species, many breeds, many temperaments and different environmental and social requirements. My mother was a veterinary technician and I spent my childhood and teen years practically living at a vet clinic and the SPCA. I also grew up with horses and am very comfortable working with horses as well as other livestock. I have had my own dogs(all rescues) for my entire adult life. I currently have three dogs: a black Lab,a shepherd mutt, and a Siberian Husky. I have a special place in my heart for bully breeds; I've had and known many pitties and they are the best of the best. My last passed a few years back and she is still very missed. I'm knowledgeable about the personality traits of a variety of breeds of dogs and I'm a huge proponent of positive reinforcement and gentle training techniques for all species of animal. I am home full time and I enjoy being active, whether that means a long walk, playing fetch or tug of war, or practicing obedience. I'll be happy to provide you with updates on your pet's well-being through messages and pictures. It is important to me that I get to know your pets' habits and quirks so that I can provide the best possible care and so that I can recognize any potential issues. I have a flexible schedule and a reliable, insured vehicle, and I am willing to work with you to meet you and your pets' needs. I would also be happy to provide care for multiple animals and species at a time. I am experienced with dogs, horses, cats, snakes, lizards,guinea pigs, rats, birds, fish and crustaceans. I have limited experience with rabbits,poultry,cows,and other various critters, and am always excited to learn more.

DJ is awesome! The once a day drop in with our two cats went perfect. She was super attentive and sent photos of them everyday. We highly recommend DJ, you won’t be disappointed??

First time using Rover and experience was absolutely amazing. She communicated well and could tell she really cared for my pups well being and happiness. 10/10 will use again.

Donna has walked my large dog regularly for a few weeks and is always reliable and responsive. She takes extra care in the heat, she has been super helpful with Daisy!

Safety, trust & environment

I try to follow my client's normal pet's and/or home schedule as closely as possible. So when housesitting I try to follow a normal wake/sleep/eat/out schedule. I time my drop in visits and walks for similar times every day and follow a similar routine. I try to work in plenty of praise, pets, exercise, and mental stimulation according to individual needs.

Information DJ W. would like to know about your pet

Anything health related for sure is essential, and behavior with strangers, children, other animals, as well as any fears or particular likes. I want to know absolutely anything you think is relevant, no matter how tiny. You cannot give me enough information on your pet, and I'm happy to hear it all and reassure you that they're in good hands.

A typical day

I love to walk around my neighborhood, around the lake, and at parks. In the heat I often drive dogs to the park in order to stay off the pavement, and I carry water and a collapsible bowl. Winter means carrying towels for drying off and perhaps a sweater for the short hairs! I can make great use of a backyard or a indoors though! Tug of war, agility,keep away, fetch,obedience... plus cuddles, there's plenty to do!
