Hi, I'm Doug! Thanks in advance for visiting my page and taking the time to read this! 😇🤩😇 Ever since a young age, I have had a passion and curiosity for animals and learning how to care for them. In High School, I was inspired by an Animal Health Care course which propelled me into exploring various roles in the pet care industry. These roles included: volunteer work with my local animal shelter, associate at pet care stores, attendant at daycare/boarding facilities, and an internship at a veterinary clinic. My internship was part of an associate program to become a certified Veterinary Attendant and allowed me to perform basic animal restraint, medication administration, sterilization of surgical equipment, and kennel care. Over the past few years, I found the greatest enjoyment working as a pet sitter/dog walker. 🦮 It is a tremendous honor to be entrusted with your fur babies & home! It is important to me to offer your pets the opportunity to stay where they are most comfortable and relaxed - at home! 🏡 I continue to joke with my clients that I should pay them since I love being around their animals so much! 😂🤣😂 I am personally an early riser and a morning person. ☀️ I like to start my days early and perform my routines consistently! I am an independent service provider and have extraordinary availability. In my services, I pride myself on providing 24/7 care and engage in plenty of stimulation, love, and playtime with your pet. 🐾 I want your fur baby to feel comfortable so I love to stick to their current routines and let them stay in their familiar environment. I will adjust accordingly to their routine as I am incredibly flexible! While your pet is feeling safe & comfortable in your home, I will ensure they are sticking to their normal routines just as if you were home with them to provide the smoothest and pleasurable experience for both you and your fur baby! With permission, I like to take my four-legged friends in my car to local parks and or walks around the neighborhood. With permission, I love to offer treats as a reward for positive behavior or any behaviors requested to be reinforced. 🦴 I like to do an average of three walks daily & spend plenty of time cuddling and playing in between! 🎾🧸🎾
