Hello! Our home is fixed from Hurricane Ida and I am taking bookings again. Currently I work at a Vet in Larchmont, NY and I have previous experience in a veterinarian setting, animal boarding facility, dog day care and of course my own pets my entire life. I can take your dog for walks, feed, and play with your loved one! I love cats also! I am currently enrolled at a local university to complete my bachelor's of behavioral science and enrolled in the Penn Foster Vet Tech Program while working full time. I love all dogs but I live in my parents/landlords home with three dogs already so I can only host ONE 🐶doggy guest at a time for now. If I know the doggy guests I will host more than one at a time. For new doggy guests, I require meet and greets prior to the stay for safety of all parties. Each dog and person have unique connections so I do require this before booking. My home is a constant playdate for social dogs. However, if you dog is uncomfortable around multiple dogs or children, it could be overwhelming. I also like to introduce my dogs one by one so everyone is comfortable. Playful dogs really enjoy my dogs' company because it is like a constant playdate for them! I currently can only host ONE DOG up to 40 lbs depending on the activity leval as my oldest dog has leg issues. Submissive dogs no problem! I also ask for proof of up to date vaccines and an updated fecal test for the protection of all parties. (Rabies, Bordetella & distemper/parvo) NEW UPDATE: As mentioned above, I have work at veterinarian hospital. There have been dozens of canine influenza outbreaks in NYC and Stamford. I recommend getting the CIV VX if your dog is around other dogs such as dog parks, groomers and other dog sitter's dogs but speak to your veterinarian about this issue. About this sitter: I work at a vet in Larchmont and have previous experience in a veterinarian setting, and dog boarding facility. I am not afraid of any breeds and I absolutely love all dogs. I foster, and volunteer for shelters for fun on the side. Making a dog happy one by one is my passion. After witnessing some pitiful things behind closed doors of boarding facilities in the area, I wanted to do pet sitting for families who want a responsible, friendly, experienced dog lover. Also I am enrolled at a local university to complete my bachelor's of human behavior and an associates in radiation therapy soon. I have successfully fostered a few kittens and puppies and was able to find them their forever homes. I really take the time to meet the needs of every animal I watch. Their happiness is the most important to me. Why I love dog sitting Since I was able to recognize a dog, I have loved dogs all my life. I have seen the terrible things that go on in boarding facilities and how scared animals can get that I want to provide a fun, safe and stress free environment for my clients.
