I have always loved dogs! I grew up in a family that loved animals and always had dogs, cats, and more, and I was never able to get enough puppy love! I have found that there is no dog that I can't help but love. I am "that person" who always has to say hi to your dog on the street, I’m just crazy about them! I currently do not own a dog, so I find that pet sitting is great way to get my puppy fix. I often dog sit for friends, and I am the go-to for dog sitting. Because of that I am very familiar with all of the dog parks in my neighborhood, and how to handle dogs that might be in new situations. Since I have a ton of experience dog-sitting for friends and clients, I’ve learned a lot about what it means to make a stay perfect. I am very sensitive to what pups need, and always pay attention to their emotions and desires. As far as owners go, I like to go the route of as much communication as possible. This includes getting as much information from the owner as possible up front, including setting expectations on both sides. I also provide constant updates (both text and photo!) so the owners always know how their pup is doing. There are tons of great places near me that are perfect for pups. I am lucky to live next to a great dog park in Queens Village, called Mario Lanza park. It would definitely be a stop for us! The Schuylkill Banks dog park is also a favorite, especially since they have the big dog park and the small dog park separated. I love Philly City parks, and would do my best to take us through Washington Square Park, Rittenhouse, and Jefferson Square Park.
