Loving And Caring Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

PLEASE READ MY PROFILE BEFORE YOU BOOK WITH ME PLEASE. I HAVE ALOT OF STUFF FOR YOU TOO READ BEFORE YOU BOOK WITH ME. I WOULD LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW I DO BOARD MORE THEN ONE DOG AND FROM DIFFERENT FAMILYS AT A TIME AND THAT I DONT DO BOOKING FOR ONE DOG ONLY WITH MY SERVICE. MEANING I DONT DO JUST YOUR DOG BY HIM OR HERSELF FOR A BOOKING STAY WITH ME. YOUR DOG WILL HAVE LOTS OF FUN AND WILL ALWAYS HAVE A FRIEND OR FRIENDS TO HANG WITH DURING THIER STAY WITH ME. MY DAUGHTER ALSO WILL BE A NEW FRIEND FOR YOUR DOG. THANKS FOR RESPECTING MY WAY OF BOOKING WITH ME🤗 (MORNING DROP OFF/PICK UP) 5AM TO 7AM (NIGHT DROP OFF/PICK UP) 8PM TO 10PM I CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT IF NEEDED WITH YOU. JUST ASK AWAY 🤗 WITH COVID STILL HERE I ASK THAT WE DO A MEET&GREET OUTSIDE MY HOME IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ONE. FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND YOUR.🤗 I REALLY DONT GET MANY PEOPLE WANTING A MEET&GREET BUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE ONE I HAVE NO PROBLEM DOING ONE WITH YOU. DROP OFF AT MY HOUSE WILL BE DONE OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE. I HAVE A 7YR DAUGHTER AND A MOTHER THAT GETS SICK EASY. COVID IS STILL HERE AND NOT GOING ANYWHERE ANYTIME SOON. SO PLEASE RESPECT MY WAY OF DROP OFF AND PICK UP PLEASE AND THANK YOU.🤗 I'm a mother to a 7yr old daughter. I have 2 cats that stays with me. They are a Orange tabby and a black meks. There names are Toby&Shiba. I've had toby for 13 years and shiba for a month now from a dead of a family member..shiba was pass down from 3 family members... Got Toby when he was a baby and shiba as a teen/adult...(MY CATS STAY UPSTAIRS. THEY ARE OLDER SO THEY DONT DO MUCH BUT EAT AND SLEEP ALL DAY. THEY HIDE UPSTAIRS AWAY FROM THE DOGS I WATCH). I now have 9 hermit crabs and 2 baby turltes 3 birds and 3 dwarf hamsters added to the family. I love all animals as if they were mine. And treat them as I want mine to be treated. My daughter also has a love for all animals too. I have had a lot of experience with a lot of different types of animals. I dog sit sometimes for neighbors when they go away on business trips. 3 of my neighbors have resuce animals. One came from a home of being beaten. Another came from a home of being neglected. And the other one came from a home that kept him tied to a dog house and not really feed daily. CARE FOR YOUR LOVING PET CAN DEPEND ON WHAT EACH DOG NEEDS ARE. FROM FOOD TIMES, TO POTTY TIMES,TO FOOD ALLERGY, TO BEING CRATED OR NOT CRATED I DO HAVE A BUSY DAY FROM DROP OFF OF MY DAUGHTER FOR SCHOOL TO DROP IN AND ALSO BOARDING... BUT I MAKE IT WORK FOR ME AND OTHERS. DEPENDS ON WHAT YOUR PET NEEDS. EVERY DOG IS DIFFERENT FROM THE NEXT ONE. JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT THEY NEED AND I CAN DO WHAT I NEED FOR THEM ONE ON ONE

I have never left Thor with anyone I didn't know before Joy did a wonderful job at easing me into the process. She communicated with me on how he was around the other animals and kept me up to date on his status. I felt like he lost weight when he returned home but I also do not walk him 4 times a day lol. Overall, think he had a good 2 weeks away from home. Thank you for caring for my son.

Information Joy B. would like to know about your pet

I want to know everything about the dog. I want to know my dogs like they are my own. I would like to know if they chew up stuff or like if I cant leave them alone? I also would like to know if they take meds or are they on a schedule for things? I also would like to know if they are crate trained or not. I don't crate my dogs I let the dogs I sit roam my house freely. So they feel comfortable when stay with me in my home. I do have crates if needed to crate or is asked to crate them for a reason a owner has asked me to. Like if they sleep in one at night or like if I leave them alone in my home and the owner tells me they need to be in a crate when I leave. Would like to Also know if they are house trained? Like if they have accidents like pooping or peeping in the home? Also would like to know if they get along with kids? I have a daughter she loves all the dogs I care for. If they get along with other dogs? I would like to know if I walk them outside are they ok to walk around other dogs?

A typical day

I have walking path by my house. I also have a lot of walking space in my neigborhood. Filled with other dogs to have fun with. Also have a dog area for dogs in my neigborhood. I have alot of different toys for my dogs to play with. I do give bath when dirty from Stay.
