Dependable & full of love ❤️

Pet care experience

Although I am a people person, I have to admit that I love animals the most. I’ve done personal pet and home sitting since I was a teen, and with 20 years of experience loving, taking care of and looking after pets and homes, I will ensure that your pet is treated like family, because they are! I am patient, dependable, detail oriented, self motivated and take the responsibility that comes with caring for your pet and home very seriously. I have two special needs pets myself- Ralfee, a formerly feral and still very particular kitty now in her golden years and Bub, my recent rescue pit bull mix with a troubled past. I pride myself in the intuitive skill set that comes with deeply caring about animals- I understand that sometimes that means that certain pets have special needs or boundaries and I have a knack for listening to what your pet tells me. I have reliable transportation, local references and strong communication skills. I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have for me, and sincerely look forward to getting to know your pet.

Information Kalena J. would like to know about your pet

No breed restrictions. I do ask that your dog know basic commands (sit, stay, leave it) for safety, especially if you have a larger breed, but I am patient and happy to work with those with semi-selective hearing (or those who learning new commands). I would prefer to have an idea of your dogs temperament, how they interact with other animals and people (children especially), so I can keep your pet safe on walks and give them the best experience possible. Being informed of any special needs your dog may have including health issues, behavior with new people, preference of type and level of interaction, meal times, bed time or any other details you or your pet find pertinent are also very helpful.

A typical day

Depending on your feedback, I would be happy taking your pet on walks in your neighborhood or a local park, on a familiar route or on an adventure to discover new sniffies-it’s really your choice! If you have a trained, well behaved, experienced off-leash dog, I would also take them to a local dog park to socialize if that’s their jam. Alternatively, we could play fetch at a local (off leash & fenced) park to get in some cardio.
