Dog walker at Lakeland Animal Shelter in Delavan, WI Scottish Terrier Club of America Member Why I love dog sitting I've been owned by dogs since my childhood. I remember my first puppy when I was just 8 years old back in Brazil where I was born. His name was Nick, a terrier mix who enjoyed life for over 13 years. Then it was the time for Maggie (a Springer Spaniel) than Hulk (a Weimaraner). They are now in heaven together with Nick and I think about them all the time. Luckily now Julie (a Scottish Terrier) is my partner on daily walks and activities. I've been working as a dog walker at the Lakeland Animal Shelter in Delavan and this is what I always dreamed about. It is so rewarding to make the lives of those dogs better even if just for a few minutes. About my yard 0.3 acre home with a fenced yard. Boarding guests are welcome to join Daycamp activities for free! My experience administering medication Yes. One of my guests is a 10-year old Poodle who needs two daily shots of insulin.

Erica and Felipe are truly a blessing! You can see and feel the love, care, and passion they have. This was our first time bringing Miley to daycare. And she's almost 9! So it was not easy.. Felipe was waiting outside with his helper Pearl. Right away Felipe was playing with Miley putting her at ease. He explained how the day would go and put us at ease!! We were sent a picture and video during the day. Felipe drove Miley home and made a beautiful gift bag with a toy, treats, picture, and a card!! Exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend!!! Out of 10, I give a thousand star rating

Felipe and Erica did an amazing job taking care of our 4 1/2 month old furry kids, Thor and Zeus! They kept in touch with me with text messages, pics and videos on a daily basis. And Thor and Zeus obviously had a great time--they came home happy and tired! We plan to use them again soon when we go on vacation! We would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for daycare or overnight care for their dog! They're the best!!

Information Felipe V. would like to know about your pet

Although I have greater experience with Terriers, I don't have any breed preference for boarding. I think that a successful sitter is the one who will seek information about each breed he/she is boarding and then 'adjust' to what the dog really is by essence. For example, my first 'customer' is a Siberian Husky. I know she loves to run preferably where there is snow, so everytime she is under my care I will provide her with at least one nice "full speed" walk.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks In the saf, green and quiet areas surrounding our home that is attached to the Big Foot Park. Occasionally we drive 2 miles to Lake Geneva city centre and Geneva Lake. Walks are the best part of their stay. I'm a marathon runner and love to keep an active lifestyle that benefits the dogs. When I'm not running I'm walking! Your dog's sleeping arrangement Wherever he/she wants. We have plenty of space in the living room, an entire bedroom with a queen size just for the dogs and our bedroom where Julie, ou r pup sleeps. Your pup will name it! Time I'll spend with your dog Literally 24 hours. Time I'll spend with your dog I work from home and have my own schedule so I can stay with your dog 24/7 if needed. Extra house-sitting services I will do whatever possible to make my service outstanding!
