I always make it a priority to ensure the safety, well-being, and happiness of your pet, as I know how it feels to be wary of who is providing pet care to your dog or cat. For walks, I have handled dogs as small as a chihuahua to as large as a Leonberger! I've dealt with many reactive, insecure dogs, and know how to handle one who may not feel comfortable or confident in its environment through my experience in pet care and owning dogs over the years. For drop ins, I always make sure to engage with your dog or cat so that they are having an amazing time while you're away. I would love to know about their favorite toys, treats, and games if they have any. I know how skittish some cats can be about new people in their house, so I definitely make sure to respect their space to make them feel at the most ease as possible. I've had and dealt with many many picky eaters (I can let you know some ways I get my own picky Doberman to eat his food consistently), stand-offish, unsure pets, high energy + high drive dogs (these are honestly my favorite! So fun!), and escape artist dogs/cats. I always make sure to take the most safety precautions such as: is their crate properly secured, are the doors latched and locked properly, I look behind me and don't open the door wider than I need to when entering or exiting your home, I know how to ground myself with hard leash pullers (and can maybe give you a few pointers on how to handle this), and I don't like leaving dogs unsupervised outside, even if the yard if properly fenced in.
