I will give your dog a voice.

Pet care experience

Hello, My name is Glennis. I am mom to and eight-year-old and I do voice over so, yes, your dog will get a professionally bestowed "voice" after I get to know them -- and my mom said I'd never turn a profit talking like a dog! My husband and I cared for my first baby, Gilda Raddog, a Scottish Terrier, for 14 years until she was in need of a compassionate end. I remember when I had my son it hit me that Gilda was a dog... I thought of her as my actual baby before, and my fur baby once I had my skin puppy (my name for kids). She taught me how to be patient and opened my heart so much. We now have a rescue named Penny Pinscher. She will be one in May and has been a pleasure to watch get comfortable with our family. I am still learning her personality, like the fact that she thinks she's big. I use positive reinforcement with her just as I did with Gilda. She can sit, fetch, comes when I call (even way across a dog park) and snuggles like a champ. As I said, I'm a mom, so my superpower is patience. I also cared for my father for eight years from the time he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's until he passed. While he never lived with me in my (then) small New York apartment, I worked closely with my sister to sell his house, move him with his sister, and then finally into a home for palliative care. I was honored to be able to give him a dignified end of life. I would love to get to know your baby, give them pets, butt scratches with my great back-scratching nails, some treats (if allowed), play and lots of walks! I have lots of free time between bookings and I love getting out in the sunshine, going to the dog park, or going for a hike - your call! Gimme them doggies!

Glennis is such a loving and caring human. She adores animals and treats them all like they were her own. My very shy cat who stays away from everyone even allows Glennis to pet him. She has safe, friendly, fun vibes that all walks of life can sense right away. You can feel confident in leaving your much loved pet, in her capable hands.

I have known Glennis for several years, she is reliable, loyal, caring and smart. But above all else, she is a lover of animals and dogs. She had the most beautiful Scottish terrier, Gilda, that she trained herself and cared for for over 13 years and she recently rescued an abandoned Miniature Pinscher named Penny. I would trust my fur babies with her absolutely!

Glennis is a truly caring professional and brings deep love and joy to animals! This is clearly a calling for her. She is a bright light on walks and the most responsible pet caregiver I have ever encountered. I honestly think my pets like walking with her more than they do with me now! I feel so safe and at ease knowing they are living their best life when they get to be with her. She’s the coolest lady, so fun and fashionable, and very protective and mindful with all of her ventures and strolls. She respects me as the mama but steps in when I can’t do it myself. I trust her completely and I know she treats my sweet babies like she does her own! And like I would myself! A rare gem!! I truly cannot recommend someone more highly! You won’t be disappointed if you go Glennis!

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a fenced yard so I will need to care for your baby at your place or go on walks in your area.

Information Glennis M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know how your pet does around other dogs, people, vehicles, bikes, skates, etc. Let me know if your pet likes to eat stuff off the ground so I can be super diligent when we walk - we don't want anything going in that's not meant for them! I live in Van Nuys so I need to be super diligent with my puppy, it's never an issue because they call me hawkeye. Please also let me know what they can have as far as treats as I work with positive reinforcement!

A typical day

Fetch, long walks, practice with any tricks or skills they're working on, tug of war, anything that the pet likes to do I will do! I always bring water so we can stay hydrated on hot days and take breaks in the shade when they seem tired. I give them lots of time to sniff on walks, too!
