I adore dogs, all breeds and sizes.
Pet care experience
I've helped to take care of my family's dogs since I was little. At eleven I began going out and walking other people's dogs. I've taken care of senior dogs including walking and feeding them and making sure they got their medicine. I also have experience taking care of puppies. I can bathe dogs too as I began helping bathe my families dogs when I was ten.
Reviews
Faith did a good job-- sent pics and dogs and house were in good shape when we got back . Would recommend her
Faith is a very sweet, caring sitter and took good care of our little fur baby.
This will be a long(er) review to provide context. Like many who use Rover, my dog is as important as the rest of my family. Having worked for a large pet chain that boards animals -- and understanding how traumatic it can be -- I have never boarded any of my dogs. Finding high quality care who can come into my house and take care of Maddie at the level I want is exceptionally difficult. Maddie is about 5 pounds and therefore is fragile. One misstep could be fatal. I don't let Maddie jump up or down and carry her up steps. Consequently, I agonize over her care. I chose Faith to dog sit (stay at my house) for 16 days after interviewing her, reading reviews, and watching her interact with Maddie ahead of time. The care she provided Maddie was excellent. I received an email daily and a picture daily. I had a friend and my mid-80 year old father who stopped by the house on occasion and the reports back were terrific. An important "tell" is how Maddie acted when I came home. She seemed "normal". She wasn't skittish or anxious -- just her normal, excited to see me behavior. There is one other thing that is noteworthy. Faith is exceptionally professional and responsible. She arrived when she said she would. She did what she said she would. In the past, I've had to pester dog sitters to let me know what is happening. Not with Faith. I asked her to communicate daily -- and she communicated twice. I did not worry at all on my vacation because Faith was constantly updating me before I had a chance to worry if everything was ok. As you can see, I highly recommend Faith and will be hiring her again.
Faith is always wonderful with Cooper - Thank you so much Faith

Safety, trust & environment
If the client has a fenced in yard I will still make sure to watch theirs dogs when they go outside to make sure they are safe. If the don't have a fence I have no problem hooking them on a leash and taking them out to potty and expend energy.
Information Faith b. would like to know about your pet
It is important for me to know if the dog is house trained. I would also like to know if they need any special attention such as medicine or if they have problems with eating or upset stomach or anything else out of the ordinary.
A typical day
I love to walk dogs around the neighborhood or take them to the park. Playing fetch and chasing after birds and squirrels with them is always great fun too.
