I am an experienced dog walker and have experience in pet sitting cats. I have a cat of my own; he's 4 years old and very active and healthy! He's orange as well, so he's full of personality. Regarding my dog walking experience, I've care for and walked up to 4 dogs at once. I specifically have experience with reactive dogs, foster dogs (behavioral factors such as untrusting), stubborn walkers, and elder dogs. I have administered oral medication to both dogs and cats (including sedatives), and topical medications while caring for blind dogs and dogs with special needs/accommodations such as physical impairments that required bladder expression. Throughout my years working with dogs and cats, I’ve become very knowledgeable about behavior specific to breeds and socializing such as reading behavior in reactive dogs, dietary restrictions, allergies, and how to treat digestive issues. I am also knowledgeable of what to look for in dogs or cats facing medical issues and very responsive to toward such signs. Furthermore, I am very familiar with common commands and training techniques adn am adaptable to my clients' needs. I am an active, creative individual who loves connecting with animals, nature and, of course, people. I strive to build solid, trustworthy relationships, and rapport with my client's so they may have someone they can rely on when away from home. I understand how difficult it is to find sitters one can trust so I aim to provide the best service possible by respecting my client's personal space by cleaning after myself, and then some, after every stay. My intuition, attention to detail, work ethic, and passion for animals set me apart from most.
