Pampering Pets with Love and Care

Hello, I'm Jody. Raised in an environment rich with animals, including dogs, cats, and horses, I have developed a unique affinity for nurturing them. I have cultivated an instinctual understanding of animal needs. Animals rapidly form trust with me, perceiving me as a dependable presence. Prioritizing their needs, I adapt to each pet's requirements, particularly in unfamiliar environments. My goal is to provide a sense of comfort, love, and reassurance, ensuring each pet feels secure and cared for outside of their regular family setting.

Safety, trust & environment

I take care of pets in my home and follow the rules and routines as given by the pet owners and also understand that if a pet is not in their home environment they may feel anxious and I try to reassure them and give them most loving environment. When I'm in a person's home taking care of their pet I always respect their rules and respect their home and follow their guidelines and instructions.

Pets

A typical day

I often take the pets that I care for specifically dogs on walks I provide plenty of toys and have accessible to them I create games that provides stimulus especially like on a rainy day if we can't make it outdoors. I will take them on a car ride if it's you know nice enough weather. Also just talking to dogs and cats really stimulates them and it creates an environment of security and nurturing and they seem to really enjoy when someone is just paying attention to them and talking to them it makes them feel very cared for and I think they get a sense of happiness.

How is your pet around other pets or people how do they react on walks what's their temperament most of the time. What would be an unusual behavior for them what would be a normal behavior for them. Those are some of the questions I would ask when preparing to pet sit for someone.
