Experienced and energetic dog-lover
Pet care experience
I am an animal lover who has had a range of pets throughout my life. I have extensive animal care experience from small rodents to livestock, have taught animal care at a summer camp, and have knowledge of animal first aid and medication administration. I have cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I have no breed preferences and have experience working with reactive dogs. For boarding, we must schedule a meet-and-greet in advance to ensure that your dog gets along with my friendly, 1-year old GSD. This is not a requirement for other services. I am a new graduate physician assistant (PA) waiting on my hospital credentials to begin my full time job as an emergency medicine PA. I cannot think of a better way to fill my free time and pay off student loans than care for animals!
Reviews
Hannah is always great at taking care of my dog and I love the photos she sends of my girl, it gives me peace of mind knowing that she's happy and well taken care of when I'm out of town.
Obi's stay with Hannah was great! She made sure he got a ton of exercise and attention. The communication was great, too! Obi will definitely be back!
Thank you for such great care of our pups- we enjoyed the photos and updates! I could tell they were happy and relaxed when we returned home. Thanks!
Hannah was so sweet with our dog Nova and incredibly professional and easy to communicate with. Will definitely be using her again!

Safety, trust & environment
My home includes a private, fenced-in backyard. I always supervise outdoor time regardless of fencing. For boarding services, I require a meet-and-greet in advance to ensure your dog gets along with my friendly, 1-year old GSD. This is not required for other services.
Home
Information Hannah W. would like to know about your pet
Does the dog get along with other dogs? Does the dog have any walking triggers? What commands do you use with your dog (ex. stay vs. wait)? I would also love to know what activities your dog enjoys, i.e. swimming, running, walking, tug-o-war, fetch!
A typical day
I have experience taking dogs on hikes, to beaches, to public parks etc. I am happy to take your dogs on such adventures or enjoy exercise in your or my own neighborhoods and yards!

Availability
I am set to start my full-time job in December so I am very flexible until then! Typically, I am unable to stay overnight for house-sitting requests as I usually am boarding a dog and have my own pup at home. Depending on the needs of the animial(s) and client preferences I typically will do regular drop-ins and walks throughout the day for dog sitting requests.
