Pet care experience
Hello. I offered discounts for multiple dogs and stays for six nights or longer. My name is Kathy and I have been a self-employed dog groomer for over 40 years. In my first year of grooming I keyed in on why some dogs are scared or timid. I have professional experience working with dogs in various capacities, including training, grooming, and boarding. I have a strong grasp of canine behavior and I understand the way dogs think. This allows me to manage dogs of various temperaments, including reactive and dogs. More and more people are calling me the dog whisperer when they are amazed at the videos of their pets. I usually send videos rather than photos. My skills help to alleviate separation anxiety and social skills become improved. it comes easy to me. Discounts are given to two or more pets and for stays longer than 6 days :-) My clients have been very pleased and the difference they see in their dogs when you going for a grooming session with me, as well as staying in my home. I have always said I love my job and I still do to this day. I started helping clients out when they went away watching their pets in my home. I love pet sitting. I recently put fake turf in my two dog yards which the dogs love. Photos upon request. People say I have a dog fantasyland. I work from home so spending time with the dogs is available throughout the day. Some dogs love to be with me while I am working where I also have a fenced yard off my grooming shop. $ I am able to offer discounts for multiple pets and for stays longer than 5 days. I have 2 fenced yards. Play time and potty breaks many times throughout the day. Some dogs love to be down stairs in my shop while I work and I have a fenced yard off my grooming shop.
Reviews
Kathy did a great job with our dog. Her communication was great and she sent us videos of our dog playing or getting pets during her stay. I would recommend Kathy and will plan on booking her again when we are in need of dog sitting.
Kathy was absolutely fantastic. Her and her husband do a great job of taking care of the dogs. Communication was great, we got videos every day. Sparky seemed extremely happy.
Our first experience with our senior dog and this was a great option for her. Kathy was caring and kept in contact while we were away including video updates.
Kathy was beyond excellent. from our 'meet and greet' onward, she was a real dog caregiver! She sent me nearly daily videos of my Tinkerbell playing with the other dogs and let me know daily hiw she was faring. she also followed the strict feeding schedule my delicate maltipoo requires and introduced her to the guest "pack" very gently, esnuring a superb integration from the start. Kathy knows her dog stuff and is a real pro! Tinks didnt want to leave her new best friends and was so loved and cuddled, she had more fun on vacation than we did! Would undoubtedly use hger again and frankly feel very fortunate that she chose us and allowed Tinks to join in the fun! Beyong the ordinary!!
