Dog Lover RN to the Rescue!

Pet care experience

I'm a registered nurse looking to help friendly people out with their awesome dogs. I provide positive energy to care for all types of dogs. I've lived with dogs and animals all my life, both big and small. I have experience with high energy dogs and am willing to expend their energy alongside them. I'm not intimidated by bigger dogs. Our oldest dog was recently put down, so I have experience with elderly dogs and the extra love they need (including medications and extra potty breaks). I'm a caring person and am willing to go the extra mile to make sure every dog feels comfortable and gets all the attention they deserve. There's something very rewarding about caring for animals and spending time with them.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two fur babies of my own to keep yours company if needed. If your dog prefers it's crate for safe space, that's fine too. The house is large enough that there is plenty of room for your dog away from ours if need be. If we're dog sitting at your house, I can provide any additional services upon requests.

Information Katherine R. would like to know about your pet

I think knowing how to dog behaves around new people and environments is important to know ahead of time. Also knowing what the dog does and doesn't like, as to certain treats, routines, toys, etc.

A typical day

As having two dogs of my own, I am experienced in dog plays. I will play endless fetch if that's what they love, or as my Gracie loves to be chased. I am fit myself so going for long walks won't be a problem, neither will good old fashioned play sessions.
