Highlights
Pet care experience
I ❤ all 4 legged creatures!
Hi pet lovers! Just wanted to put a couple of things up front...first as far as dog walking is concerned I'm getting a lot of requests from all over Jersey and I don't have a car so unfortunately I've had to turn most of them down. So please note I'm only looking for dog walking jobs in Edgewater or elsewhere if you are open to paying for my uber there & back (I actually do have one client who does that, that's the only reason I'm including it). The second thing is regarding housesitting...please note that if you are requesting housesitting, I'm happy to if I'm available but I need to be able to bring my 1 1/2 yr old micro mini labradoodle, Cole. I already have it in my profile below but I just got a request from someone who said no because I have a dog so I'm writing it very first thing in case people don't read any further. And speaking of Cole, he LOVES other dogs. So if you are interested in having me host your dog for doggy day care or a longer stay, I just would need to know your dog gets along with other dogs as well. Obviously it's harder for me to do house sitting now but I'm leaving it up on the chance I have someone who wouldn't mind me bringing him. Anyway, Cole and I both look forward to meeting your pups (or cats for that matter, He's also great with cats, he's super loving to all and doesn't have a mean bone in his body). And on that note... I adore dogs and cats (not to mention hedgehogs, shout out to Choggie and Jefferson, may they RIP.). I have always dreamed of caring for animals professionally and so far have absolutely loved doing so for the past several years.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Any animal who boards with me will have my undivided attention. Also, there is a dog park near me I will take your dog to daily. And to anyone concerned about there being any sort of negative interaction between your pet and my hedgehog, please don't worry. Hedgehogs are nocturnal so he stays in his cage sleeping all day. So far it has not been an issue at all with any of the dogs I've boarded (including one VERY curious & energetic puppy lol).
Pets
A typical day
I take the dogs I care for on 3-4 walks per day and as stated above at least one of those walks is always to the dog park in my neighborhood (as long as you're ok with that, I've learned recently that some people actually prefer their dogs not go to the dog park so I respect whatever your preferences are). Anyway, it's about a 10 minute walk from me so a nice 20 minute walk there and back & I will always try to keep them there until they've at least had some sort of social interaction playing with another dog or dogs. I also bring the dogs I board with me on my dog walking jobs 1 So I don't have to leave them at home and 2. So they get to socialize for sure w/ other dogs. My regular dog walking clients are all sweethearts(if I do say so myself) that love to meet & play with new dogs. Other than that I always make it a point to play with them frequently myself when we're inside to keep them stimulated and of course, give them lots of love!
