PETS are my PASSION! 🥰🐾

Pet care experience

I am an Animal Behavior College educated and Certified Dog Trainer (2018) & a college graduate of UW-Madison in Communications (BA). I was personally & professionally trained as a pet sitter and dog walker by one of the most successful pet sitters in the industry. I am also licensed, & carry my own personal bond and individual insurance for dog training, pet sitting & dog walking. I am also pet CPR & First Aid certified, and skilled in giving pet meds including diabetic injections, subcutaneous fluids. Formerly NAPS certified, & a Pet Sitters International member. My business is called Purr-fect Pet Sitting Dog Walking & Training. Pets are truly my passion & Caring for them is my calling. The territory cover for Dog Walking & Pet Sitting is within a 12 mile radius of East Boynton Beach. I will travel further for Private Training. I offer private single training sessions as well as multiple sessions at a discounted rate. Additionally, I meet and begin bonding with my new canine candidates for a paid hour long evaluation. In your home is where I can best assess not only your dog but the interaction with and any member of you pet relations between him/her and you; plus any additional members within the home. I am a well-balanced trainer utilizing LIMA, positive reinforcement, negate punishment and high value rewards. My goal is always the same: to make your dog a happy healthy contributing pack member where you are the Alpha and your dog can find his place in your personal pack. In addition to caring for your pet(s), I will bring in mail/newspapers, take out trash, water plants and alternate lights when you are out of town. I have life long experience caring for pets. I myself have 2 exotic felines and a chihuahua. I will make myself available during the time you need a sitter/walker/trainer, and would love the chance to earn your business. I can furnish references upon request and promise to over-deliver on your expectations.

We are so happy to have met Holly, our 3 babies had a great time with her and we are so happy that they were taken care of so well. Will definitely work with her in the future and we highly recommend her!

Holly took such great care of Max! She really prepared to host him by asking a lot of questions & honored my routine to keep Max on schedule. We communicate regularly and the photos were really helpful in easing my mind how he was doing. She's a kind a loving person who Max really enjoys spending time with.

Safety, trust & environment

I consider your home as your home, not mine; and respect you privacy. So my moto is "leave everything exactly as it was, the first visit to the last." Also do my job and secure your home each day as I leave, as instructed by you. But while you're gone, I consider myself your house sitter as well. So if anything is wrong, like a change in temperature, pending storm, etc ; I am monitoring and sitting the house as well, for your pets' safety and security. I am efficient and observant. So if somethings not the way it was on my previous visit, I alert you immediately. Also will get your mail, leave trash out and retrieve empty cans and bins, if you wish. My goal is for you to be worry free when your with me. So you can focus on whatever it is that prompted your time away.

Information Holly A. would like to know about your pet

I provide a FREE meet and greet as an introduction to you and your pet(s), so I can learn exactly how you want your fur baby(ies) taken care of. I collect vet information, ask about health issues, obtain emergency contacts in the event you cannot be reached, and more. On the visit, please share about their routines, location of food, treats, doggie poop bags, litter boxes, fresh litter, location of leashes, harnesses, brushes, cleaning supplies, etc. I usually spend about 30 minutes per visit. But if you request a longer visit, I am happy to accommodate. And finally I collect a key, alarm codes, door codes, garage codes, it’ll be up to you how you wish me to enter your home.

A typical day

I will walk your dog and play with him/her to their hearts content. I make life interesting and plan varied walks daily. I love to spoil your baby(ies), so I need to learn from you, just what they love. Whether it's throwing a ball or stick around in the yard, or providing belly rubs and their favorite treats, I aim to bring out the dog in the puppy and the puppy in the dog. Cats were my first love, so providing them the same love and attention is my goal. I am determined to bond with even the shyest & most intimidating pets. I make a concerted effort to bond with and befriend every animal in my care. It’s important to me that they know they have a friend they can count on when you (their favorite people) cannot be there. And it makes my day when they greet me with excitement, kisses, etc. I love enthusiastic greetings and work to make them my friends/family each visit. I know I've done my job when a pet cat purrs and rubs up against me, just like I take and receive dog kisses and tail wags. These are my rewards for giving the Best Care When You're Not There!
