Pet care experience
We're a responsible, animal-loving couple with over 15 years of pet care experience each! About Erin: Erin enjoys jewelry-making when she's not at work, and absolutely adores our kitty, Ofelia. Erin has owned several cats in her life, and a couple of dogs. She rescued Herman the schnauzer in his later years, and provided him with all the love and tenderness to give him a great last few years of life. She has a passion for caring for animals--especially those with special needs. As you can see in one of our photos, she's paid homage to Herman on her arm with a tattoo. Another pet she had, Terrell the cat, had feline FIV--though he only lived to 11, his life was one like a king! About Shey: Shey currently works as an online account specialist for a local start-up in Seattle. Shey has only personally owned cats in his life, but has been a "surrogate" pet parent and a great pet uncle to many dogs and other cats. Shey has worked for a vet clinic as a vet tech assistant, and has also worked at a natural pet food store providing lots of useful skills when caring for animals. Shey recently discovered that he loves small dogs much more than he initially thought he would, and you'll see a photo of one such cutie in the profile photos--little Dolce. BOTH OF US: We are both comfortable administering medicine, and would be willing to care for older pets and those with special needs. With that said, we've found that we're less equipped to handle large or aggressive dogs. We are comfortable with animals other than dogs and cats as well--just ask! We are laid-back, fun-loving individuals who spend a lot of time at home. We're excited about providing care for dogs not only because we love them (and need to get our doggy fix!), but also because it will help us to be more active in our own lives--A win, win! Ultimately, we want to provide your pets with the same exact care you provide to them every day. We don't want your pets to know you're even gone! Currently, we can provide House Sitting (1 of us would stay in your home overnight with your pet) at any time. We have our profile set to weekends only, but if you need longer, just ask. We can do weekday gigs every once in a while. We both work M-F, regular business hours, so your pet would need to be okay with being left alone for up to 10 hours or would need to be okay with coming to work with Shey. His dog-friendly office accommodates all kinds of dogs and more details can be discussed at a meet and greet. Dog Walking is available on the weekends at any time, or weeknights only (though this may change in the near future!) Drop-In Visits are negotiable depending on your location and how often you need visits during the day. YOUR REQUIREMENTS: - all pets must be up-to-date on shots - provide detailed care-instructions (tell about your pets little quirks and daily routine - We want to provide the same kind of care that YOU do for your pet!) - all pets must be on some sort of flea-prevention (I understand not everyone is into chemicals, but due to having our own cat, and because fleas seem to love Shey and will travel home with him, we have to enforce this rule.) - provide at least one emergency contact person who can make decisions regarding your pet - provide food, toys, crates, treats, whatever else your pet may need to help them feel right at home during their stay/walk - we are a QUEER household, and therefore, you should be queer friendly Drop us a line! We'd love to meet you!
