I love all four legged companions!
Pet care experience
Since I was young, I've been very drawn to caring for pets of all nature and have a very deep connection with dogs. From my experiences with having 2 dogs of my own to being the best aunt to my sisters’ poodles, I know that a dog really is a human's best friend. I'd love the opportunity to help others care for their best friends too!
Reviews
Dori is amazing!!! Recommend recommend recommend
Very kind and accommodating.
So sweet and kind. Great with my excited pup.
Dori will take the time to know your pet and allow your pet to know her. She is very in tune with the emotional and physical clues animals give as they communicate their needs. Dori is known for being trustworthy, dependable and timely. As a dog caregiver, I am confident she will deliver the best service possible and provide open communication to ensure comfort for each dog owner.
About Dori T.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Though I would not be looking to house any pets in my home, I do prefer fenced yards for client's homes so that outside play can ensure safety for the pet as while as myself. If this is not feasible, I will gladly resort to playing inside (with permission from the owners), as well as traditional dog sitting indoors and frequent neighborhood walks.
Information Dori T. would like to know about your pet
Some extremely information to know includes the dog’s temperament, routinely concepts that the pet is used to receiving or experiencing daily, and best ways to approach/handle the pet in high-stress/ even initial encounter situations.
A typical day
My neighborhood is a great place for walking dogs. There are extremely long trails and lots of hills to get great exercise. I am also able to play with animals both indoors and outdoors (via fetch, tug of war, etc.) I also find that a lot of dogs I encounter just love being rubbed and tickled excessively!

Availability
Currently, I have reduced my hours at my hospital job to an average of around 20 hours a week, thus have a lot more flexibility in my schedule and can change my work availability as needed. For the remainder of the summer, I am preparing myself to start graduate school in the fall, when I will be enrolled at GWU and living in Alexandria. As such, I am available to take on any and all services necessary to offer help in any way that I can!
