I’m currently working full time hours but depending on the situation we can work around hours! I’m off on Sunday's and one day during the week that alternates so we can work together on that! I’m very flexible on when I’m available if given enough notice! Let me know what you’re looking for, and I hope to work it out!

About Grace R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am more comfortable with drop ins or boarding at your home in case of any pet damages in my own place, but not against boarding in my home if it’s necessary! I am willing to have your pet in a very structured or very laid back environment depending on preference and your normal routines so no good or bad habits are made or lost without your consent! I have family friends that are freelanced dog trainers so I can do light obedience work if you have a pup or eager pet! I do not believe in spanking/smacking pets at all so you don’t need to worry about anything happening to your fur baby!
Information Grace R. would like to know about your pet
I can tend to most special needs, I just need clear communication from you about what your pet needs, and their everyday habits so I know what to watch for, what to expect, and what I need to do for them to be healthy and happy with me!
A typical day
I love to get pets socialized whether that be taking dogs on trips in the car, on busy streets, or at the park to observe their surroundings! I also tend to involve pets in whatever I’m doing just for some extra socialization and comfortability in everyday life to make yours a bit easier with them! I have had reactive dogs and feral cats in the past so I try to gauge the pet’s comfortability with new situations and people before I insert them into high stress situations. For the first visit, especially with more timid pets, I will mostly be getting them used to me and/or my surroundings so they are more comfortable being away from their families! I also love creating treat-rewarding mind games for pets so they don’t get bored once they are comfortable exploring around me!

Pet care experience
I’ve had many different shapes and sizes of dogs and cats my whole life but ultimately started actually pet sitting for neighbors and friends when I was 12! I have a genuine love for animals and sometimes I just want to be around them to ease the puppy or kitten fever I get! I don’t currently have any pets in my home so I’m just looking to help out some furry friends on my spare time between work! I’m open to short term or long term! I’m also open to special needs or special conditions if they have any! I will follow up as often as is wanted and I’m happy to follow any number of care requirements you might have! My number one priority is always to make sure you and your furry loved ones are happy and respected! I am comfortable with any and all breeds and sizes and can handle big leash pullers as well! I am great with both active and calm dogs and cats! I can help with whatever you or your pet may need so just give me a text telling me what you’re looking for and I’ll work with you to meet your expectations!
