Dog's Best Friend :)

About this sitter: I am a responsible, caring entrepreneur and adventurer. I love being outdoors and dogs have always been some of the best companions for my various explorations and adventures. I love dogs and want to share my love with your dogs :) Why I love dog sitting As a child I was afraid of dogs, but my neighbor's gentle giant soon won me over and I have loved them ever since. Dogs have been a part of my everyday life since the day we got our Shetland Sheepdog when I was 11 years old. In the next few years we added to the family, and soon had a total of 4 dogs. Last year, my dearest Sheltie passed away suddenly and I have been heart broken since. I unexpectedly was asked to dog sit my brother's 2 lab mixes soon after for an indefinite period of time, and have been caring for them since. I love dogs so much as their unconditional love and faithfulness knows no bounds and I feel I have so much love to give them and to receive in turn. They each have individual personalities that make them unique in their own right. About my yard Part of my yard is fenced in and connects with a gated veranda which also connects with the back deck. The back door opens to a gated, fenced in area so there's no worry of the kids getting out when the door is opened. My experience administering medication/first aid Yes. I have experience providing oral and injection medications. I also have experience changing dressings and cleaning wounds.

I can’t say enough positive things about Grace! This is the first time we’ve left our dog with anyone and felt that she was happy, comfortable, and cared for while we were gone! We can’t wait for Luna to stay with Grace again.

Grace is amazing! We have had issues with dog sitters in the past & have avoided using anyone except family for a few years now but she has completely turned that around for us. We were hoping to find our new favorite sitter since relocating to SC & I think we most definitely have!! You will be super happy you chose her to watch your babies, trust me!

Grace was exceptional! My wife and I are a little paranoid when it comes to our pups, but Grace put our minds at ease! She was more than happy to accommodate any small or large ask, was very communicative, and sent several pictures. Our pups loved her! We will be using Grace again in the future!

Grace was amazing with Bruno. She sent lots of pictures and gave updates, and he seemed to have a great time while he was there! I love that she really bonded with him because it was one of his first times with a dog sitter:) She was also very flexible and made drop off and pick up SUPER easy.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We will go for a walk through the neighborhood. It's a quiet, not-high traffic area. We can also go to the park and dog park if that is something your dog would enjoy, or for a hike in the woods. If your dog runs well with a bike, we can go cycling on the Swamp Rabbit Trail. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Anywhere he/she likes. Your dog is welcome to sleep with me in my room, or anywhere in the common areas of the house as long as he/she is house trained. My home is his/her home :) If you have special requirements or rules that you would like your dog to follow, I am happy to abide by them (e.g. not allowed on the bed, sleeps in crate, etc). Time I'll spend with your dog We can set up a schedule, guided by you, that will provide the dog(s) with the time and care they require. This is personalized and unique since every dog needs a varying amount of interaction to remain happy. I'm often home most of the time so I am happy for him/her to hang out with me when I'm around.
