Pet care experience
Growing up in a home with cats, dogs, and fish (plus the nearby countryside), I have always adored being around animals and taking care of them. Since I was a kid I have helped neighbors, family, and friends with their pets and it has always been a delightful time. My first experience with taking care of pets, besides those in my childhood home, was helping neighbors while they were away. I became the regular sitter for a few families, including one that asked me to stay overnights with the dogs. One neighbor had a cat and three bulldogs, the oldest dog needed her wrinkles gently cleaned and an ointment applied so I have some experience with requests like that or specially preparing meals. I am from the midwest and moved to Boston in 2012 to go to BU. Most of my roommates over the years have had pets and I enjoy helping them with letting out and going for walks. For three years I lived with a rescue dog that was aggressive towards strangers so I learned to understand his special needs, keep constant supervision and take precautions like crossing the street to avoid passing people closely on the sidewalk. Later I lived with another rescue dog that was aggressive towards other dogs, so similarly I was very careful when out walking and designed routes around the neighborhood that would make it easy to avoid other dogs. Currently I also work at a restaurant so my availability is around that schedule. During Wednesday-Saturday I am available in the morning/midday (before 2pm) for visits to check-in, go outside plus some play time, or potentially longer stays with dogs and cats, that might need the supervision or like company. Regardless of the length of time I spend, I like to keep the routines that pets are familiar with and I am great at following directions. I respect animals and their people, so I pay attention to any individual needs and special requests, such as longer walks for more energetic dogs!
Reviews
Incredibly respectful and reliable. My skittish kitten took to her. Highly recommend Hallye.
