Information Kal I. would like to know about your pet

I feel like I only require the typical run down but I’ll list it off anyways! - does your dog have any triggers? - is your dog high or low energy? - do they have verbal commands to eat / potty? - do they have allergies or medical conditions I should be aware of? - what’s their favorite activity? (Playing, sunbathing, cuddles, running, fetch, etc)

A typical day

I will do whatever suits your pet best. If your dog wants to run run run, then off we go. If it just wants to lay on the floor and get head scratches, I’m game. Your pet wants cuddles? Good thing I travel with a lint roller. Your pet a big sniffer? Sniff away little friend we have all the time in the world.

Pets

Farm raised animal lover

Pet care experience

Because I grew up on a farm I have a lot of love and patience for animals, I’m also very adaptable. If your pet needs a couch buddy, or someone to go on several hour long walks with, I’m your guy! I adore all animals doesn’t matter if it’s a dog or cat,I love them all. I can handle large or small breeds, young or old.

Kal was great with my cat Gerald. He is very shy around new people but kal worked well with him and followed all directions. Even gave Gerald some space when he needed it. Definitely book
