I would love to walk your dog or spend time with them in home! As a lifelong animal lover I am now exploring career options and advocacy. I would like to expand by training animals very soon, but simply would enjoy keeping your dog active and healthy for now. *UPDATE* SCHEDULING Summer-Winter 2025: A majority of my schedule says Unavailable, disregard this and please reach out anyways!! This is in part so that I can prioritize families who have high care needs who I have worked with previously without having to put myself at risk of losing star sitter status. I am still taking on new pet families, so please reach out regardless as I may be open and free to come care for your special four-legged family! :) If you live in a natural area, I would be more than glad to take your dog through the nearby parks! I have practice with my family dog Montana who has a habit of pulling the leash, and demands walks often. She has prepared me to pet sit high energy rescue dogs with silly personalities! I am very receptive to the signals animals give me and make sure to give this all my focus while pet sitting. I would also love to house sit for cats and have a fond relationship with cats long established by my wonderful family cat Gracie :) One of my most important values is family. I see my own pets as a very important part of my own, and therefore will give yours the same respect. Some of my other interests include gardening, spending time outside, crotcheting, crafting, and learning! I am eager and willing to provide care for other animals as well (reptiles, guinea pigs, ferrets, chickens, goats, etc.) as long as I am given the specific care instructions for your pet. I look forward to making sure your four-legged friend has great care while you're away and gets plenty of time outdoors! I ask that we do a meet and greet beforehand in order for us both to assess and ensure that I'm the right fit for the responsibilities in caring for your family and or home. I am very thorough and therefore I ask that any and all care details be written down or sent through the app to be sure that they get exactly what they need! While I do remember a lot, the meet and greet is to make sure everything is compatible and within my capabilities, not to commit everything to memory. I want your pets to have me relying on the information you leave me with, not what my memory can hold. Thank you for helping me to go the extra mile by providing me with that crucial information :)
