Information Isabella D. would like to know about your pet

Just like people, pets can get overwhelmed—especially in new places or around unfamiliar faces. It really helps me to know what might trigger stress (like certain dogs, cats, or loud noises), and also what makes them happy. Is your dog food motivated? Does your pet have favorite treats or toys? Any health issues or medications? And if you’re working on training or have daily rituals, I’ll make sure to keep everything consistent and comfortable for them.

A typical day

I volunteer at an animal shelter, so I’ve picked up lots of great enrichment ideas—things like snuffle mats, Kongs, flirt poles, etc. I love finding ways to keep pets mentally and physically stimulated. I’m also more than happy to play with their favorite toys or try out new ones to see which ones they enjoy.

Isabella was wonderful! She and my dog Shadow hit it off immediately. Isabella was in constant communication with me, sending photos, videos and texts about what she and Shadow were doing and how he was behaving. Shadow was completely comfortable at her house and hardly left her side during his stay. We are extremely happy with Isabella and highly recommend her for anyone who wants a dog loving person to take care of your pet while away.

Isabella is amazing! I reached out to her last minute and she accommodated my husky for the weekend. She really got to know him, and kept me updated the whole time I was away. She really has a way with pets! I would recommend her again and again, and I will be coming back to her when I need a sitter in the future! Thank you Isabella!
