For walks, I make sure to check in on arrival so your pet feels comfortable with me before we head out, and I always pay close attention to pace, water breaks, and weather so the walk suits their energy level and needs. For in-home dog sitting at your place, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible, sticking to their usual feeding times, walk schedule, and any specific instructions you leave me. I like to spend extra time playing and cuddling so pets feel relaxed rather than anxious about being away from you, and I always do a walkthrough of the space to know where food, leashes, and any medications are kept before you leave. Throughout any visit, I send photo and text updates so you can see how your pet is doing, and I treat their home and belongings with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
