It’s very important for me to get to know each pet’s unique needs and personality before sitting. Here are a few things I always like to know in advance: • Health & Medical Needs Any allergies, medications, or special health conditions (like arthritis, seizures, or anxiety). • Feeding Schedule & Diet What they eat, how much, and when plus any treats or food restrictions. • Behavior & Temperament Are they shy, playful, protective, or anxious around new people or other animals? • Triggers or Fears Loud noises, other pets, strangers, car rides, etc. • Daily Routine Walks, bathroom breaks, nap times, or any specific rituals they’re used to. • Commands or Training Cues Words or hand signals they respond to. • Emergency Contacts & Vet Info Just in case something unexpected comes up. Knowing all this helps me give them the best, safest care possible and ensures they stay happy and relaxed while you’re away.

I love making sure pets are happy, active, and comfortable while their owners are away! Some fun activities I enjoy doing with the pets I watch include: • Playtime tailored to their personality fetch, tug-of-war, chase, or gentle indoor play if they’re more laid-back. • Walks and outdoor adventures whether it’s a short neighborhood stroll or a longer nature walk (with the owner’s permission), I make sure they get fresh air and exercise. • Training or mental stimulation games I use treats and toys to keep their minds engaged with simple tricks or puzzle toys. • Cuddles and calm time for pets who prefer snuggles or just someone nearby, I make sure they feel safe and loved. • Photo updates I always send cute pictures to keep pet parents connected and assured. I adjust everything based on the pet’s age, energy level, and health needs, making sure they’re well cared for and having a great time!
