Information Kali S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has special needs or accommodations ahead of time, such as needing medicine at a specific time, if I need to maintain training regimen with e-collar, or if they’re reactive. I’m comfortable caring for reactive dogs and we can discuss ahead of time their habits so I can be aware.

A typical day

A typical day with your dog in my care is filled with fun, exercise, and plenty of attention. Our day will start with a morning walk on the nearby trail before it becomes too hot outside, where your dog can explore and get some fresh air. After returning home, I will make sure your dog is well-fed with their favorite meal. Throughout the day, we will engage in various play activities, such as a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or some puzzle toys to stimulate their mind. In the afternoon, it’s time for longer walk to keep up with their exercise. I will ensure they have ample bathroom breaks and plenty of water to stay hydrated. If your dog has any specific needs, such as medication or special care, I can administer that care. Evening time is for winding down with some cuddle time and a calming routine. I make sure your dog feels comfortable and loved, giving them plenty of belly rubs and attention before their final bathroom break of the night. By maintaining a structured routine filled with care and attention, I ensure your dog is happy, healthy, and feels right at home while you’re away.

Your Dog’s Home Away From Home

Pet care experience

With over 6 years of dog care experience, I have developed a deep understanding and passion for ensuring dogs are happy and healthy. My experience encompasses loving, playing, feeding, walking, bathing, administering medicine, caring for puppies, and ensuring every dog receives the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, my apartment is conveniently located near a beautiful trail, perfect for taking dogs on long, enjoyable walks. Your furry friend will enjoy a safe, fun, and nurturing environment with me. I will abide by whatever routine you have in place for your pup and will never stray from it. I also understand the nerves that come with leaving your pet with a sitter, so I will send daily photos to ease that! *Note: I have previous experience with dealing with dogs with e-collars. I’m more than familiar with the commands in place, how/when to use them, and can upkeep your dog’s training while you’re away.

Kali accepted a last minute request for sitting my 2 elderly Great Danes and she was excellent. She fed them, played with them, sent me excellent reports on their activities and conditions. Additionally, she did some cleanup and although she didn’t mention it, I’m sure it was significant (Great Danes - need I say more?). I will happily use her again.
