Pet care experience

One of my mottos in life is, "pet more dogs." My passion for animals has led to me taking care of all types of creatures; wombats, elephants, street dogs, two summers as a dog sitter, alpacas, goats, and many more! I feel incredibly comfortable going into people's homes and caring for their pets. I always leave a detailed note after each visit, including the time I arrived and left. I think it's so important for there to be clear communication between myself and the dog's owner. I've found that any time information was left out, I wasn't able to do my job to the full extent, and no one wants that! Your dog(s) should be given the best care possible and I strongly believe that I can give it! :)

Holly has loved animals, especially dogs, her whole life! Ever since I met her in in second grade, it was clear she had a huge heart for animals that became infectious. She was always so friendly and gentile with my dog who passed away a year ago. She has had two dogs growing up both of which I have had the opportunity to get close to and watch Holly treat with tender love and care! She has had experience with dog- walking and it is clear jobs like this bring nothing but joy to her life. She is very responsible and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog- sitter or walker.

Information Holly B. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting a dog, I believe that it's imperative to know as much information as possible. For example, the dog's temperament. Is he/she nervous with strangers? Does he/she get excited with new people? Does he/she bite? How does he/she get along with other dogs? Any quirks that he/she has that I should know about? Do you/your dog have a favorite collar/leash and where is it located? Is your dog restricted to certain areas of your house, or caged? Is your dog allergic to anything/can't eat a certain food? And, of course any other information that the owner feels is important!

A typical day

My family has a St. Bernard and I take him on hikes frequently. I absolutely love the outdoors and I love seeing my dog get so excited/happy when we hit a new trail or walking path. I'd love to take your dog to any local trails, to the beach, on a run with me, or to any of his favorite places! Cuddles will be included of course! :)
