Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs since I was young, but in the pandemic, when I moved back into the family home, I truly went full Dog Nanny. We started out with 4 dogs, and by 2022, we had 10: 3 Golden Retrievers, 1 Chow-Husky mix, 2 Shih Tzus, 2 Toy Poodles, 1 Cotonese, and 1 mixed breed (undetermined). I was the one at home most of the time, so I was in charge of walking, feeding, most of the cleaning, giving baths, and bringing dogs to the vet. I was in charge of overseeing the basic obedience training of three of those dogs, and have since applied most of the principles with our newer dogs. I have since moved to the US last year with just one dog-- a little shih tzu we rescued from his owners that didn't take care of him. As this dog was attached to me the most (and vice versa!) leaving him in my home country was not an option! I do miss taking care of plenty of dogs, though, and I am very excited to be taking care of more dogs 🤩 Even now, being based in the US, I am still in charge of making sure all our family dogs remain up to date with their vet visits and vaccine appointments!

Safety, trust & environment
I enjoy giving walks. I also make sure dogs wear their shoes when it's too hot or too cold. I'm also used to reactive dogs on leash, so I can guarantee your dog's safety when we're out!
Information Josyne P. would like to know about your pet
I'm experienced with giving oral medication, as long as there is a set time and specific instructions. Do let me know if your dog is reactive on walks so I can take the necessary precautions. Would also like to know the dog's general temperament and how well they would get along with other dogs and humans.
A typical day
I love making active dogs play fetch and go on walks. I can also jog with them if they need a running buddy. For dogs that are more on the chill side, I'd gladly give slow, leisurely walks. Can set up lick mats and nosework toys for dogs that like challenges!

Availability
I'm currently studying for a real estate license, and I teach dance some nights. I'm home for most of the day, and I'm pretty flexible in terms of time. I can give walks and do drop-in visits during most people's working hours!
