IMPORTANT!! - I cannot watch your pet while you ski. Please do not message me asking for this. There is a hiking company in town, or this is regarded as doggy day care on Rover. Short About: - Who: I'm was a premed student at UCSC currently on an extended gap year. Aka I’m a ski instructor on the mountain. - What (I do): I keep your beloved furbabies happy and safe, by respecting their individual needs as described by you. - When: Short notice? Not an issue. If it says I'm available I am. - Where: Around the neighborhood, or as directed by you. Walks really depend on what your dog(s) like/need (sometimes it's a run). Why: I pet sit because I love animals! If I could handle seeing sad animals I'd choose to be a vet, but I can't so I'm premed instead. ** Important - Only doing services in clients home - Video or in-person interviews available - No, I will not watch your dog while you ski/ride - Yes, I can/will adjust prices for extended stays and special circumstances Long About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. When I was little my family began fostering. I was very involved with the training and comfort of the dogs when they came to us. As such, I’m very good with anxious dogs. Now that I’m in college/away from home I’m missing that doggie love. Our pets are like our furry children. Finding someone trustworthy to care for them is so challenging. When leaving town there is only a handful of people I trust to offer the care my pet needs, so I’d expect nothing less from you. I believe happy animals comes from getting to know them and their routine. Like children they require a lot of attention, consistency and affirmation, which I'll be happy to provide them with. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!!
