Safety, trust & environment
I understand that each pet has their own boundaries and ways of living. I strive to replicate the love and devotion each owner gives their pet when I’m with them. I’m attention detailed so I prefer knowing as much as I can about your pet to give them what they need as well as be aware of any changes in their mood and health especially with those who are of older ages and require more accommodations. With my professional and personal pet care experience, I have taken care of many different types of animals, breeds, sizes and health conditions. I am familiar with many medical conditions, medications and supplements for small animals/rodents, cats and dogs. I have worked with animals of different temperaments. I am especially understanding of pets that tend to be reserved, anxious, and/or highly energetic. I make every effort to respect their boundaries and not push them out of their comfort zones. I prioritize building trust and maintaining a sense of comfortability with each pet.
Information Journey W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any: ▪️medical conditions or allergies (on any medications) ▪️history of toy or food aggression/guarding ▪️leash reactivity ▪️separation and/or storm anxiety As well as ▪️How long they can be left alone for. If they require constant care/supervision. ▪️Exercise Routine (if walks are needed) ▪️Food & Water Schedule ▪️Bathroom Routine ( Frequency, Litter box maintenance, bedding etc) ▪️How long you’ve had your pet *For Dogs 1 year or older, I do not accept bookings for any service if you have NOT had them for more than 6 months. * *All Bookings will not be confirmed without a meet and greet prior. This is to ensure expectations can be discussed in more depth and so we can determine based on the information you provide about your pet if it will be a good fit. This also helps me in becoming familiar with your pets and help them become more comfortable with me in their space. I do not provide dog walking services and therefore do not accept and drop in requests where dog walking is requested.
A typical day
I am open to learning any new fun games or activities you play with your pet to keep them entertained and comfortable while you are away.

Pet care experience
I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I’ve been watching people’s furry loved ones and walking dogs for over twelve years now and fostered both cats and dogs for the past 8 years. I love all animals! I love meeting new animals and taking care of the not so common kinds ( turtles, fish, snakes, chickens, horses etc) I’m a quick learner and enjoy helping accommodate your pets so they feel at ease and get their daily needs met. I have experience giving topical and oral medication to both cats and dogs. I’m very accepting of different temperaments and personalities. I respect each pet’s sense of comfort and space and treat each one like they’re my own!

Reviews
Journey did an amazing job taking care of my pets!
Journey is always welcome by our kitties, the moment she comes back to take care of them they are excited to play. She is being taking care of out kitties for almost two years now. We’d highly recomend her.
Always the best to take care of our cats. She is very punctual and keep us informed on how they are doing and eating.
Journey is amazing! Our pit Bailey absolutely loves her. She great at communicating with us about baileys walks and was super accommodating with baileys needs. Journey also did some overnights and watched Bailey when we traveled. We knew Bailey was safe and having a great time. Journey kept us updated and easy to communicate with :) would def recommend to anyone looks for a new walker/friend for your fur baby
