-Puppies love me, dogs adore me. I mean even the ones who never saw me- revised It Takes Two lyrics :D I grew up with a pup and adored caring for him. Aside from giving me the best friend a child could ask for, it taught me patience, responsibility, and compassion for pets that I still carry with me today. I enjoy the responsibilities as well as the fun aspects of caring for pets and I will make sure to follow instructions thoroughly. I value trust from pets and owners alike and will thus send frequent updates. In addition to making sure your pup gets their exercise, I will make sure they are fed and given any necessary medication, and of course, given lots of love (ditto for other types of pets too). To me, the biggest perk of the job is getting to meet pets of all kinds and learning their unique quirks. I am happy to indulge your pets as long as it doesn’t pose any danger to them or myself. Please note: walks and drop-in visits can only be provided 6-8 am or after 6pm on week days, but I have more flexibility on weekends. Overnight Stays: I work remotely 9-5 so I will have *some* flexibility but midday walks will need to be short. Boarding clients: I don't have pets on my bed so please provide an alternative for your fur kiddo for our slumber party. Please be advised there is a two-night minimum for boarding arrangements, as I conduct a thorough cleaning after each stay. Your home is your pet's familiar environment. I will make sure to keep everything as consistent with their typical schedule as possible to make sure they don't struggle with you being away. (Ditto for other services.) If there is anything that makes this easier for them, please let me know!
