Pawsitively Exceptional Pet Care!
Pet care experience
Hello Pet Parents ! My name is Kayleen Agostini. I have recently moved to Indian Harbor Beach after many years traveling, pursuing my passions in health and animal rescue. I lived & traveled around Asia, Europe and the States, during which I studied health and taught English & Yoga. In my free time I volunteered at many animal rescues and those moments were the most fulfilling experiences of my travels. Experience My love for animals began as a child, growing up my household was always full of furry family members, dogs, cats and birds. I began working at an animal hospital at the age of 14 as a front desk and later I found myself doing the work of a veterinary technician. In addition, I have extensive volunteer experience around the world ranging from wildlife rescue care to dog rescues. I also worked full time in Boston for a local company called Paws to Consider, my job responsibilities included walks, boarding at clients home, administration of meds, cat care and providing clients with consistent pictures and detailed updates of each visit. In my extensive animal experience, I have worked alongside many dog trainers and have full confidence in my ability to develop a trusting and loving relationship with animals of all personalities.
Reviews
I think my two large dogs had a great time during their stay with Kayleen. She sent lots of pictures and videos of them playing in her large backyard and napping in her house.
Kayleen A. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
About Kayleen A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I understand that our animals are like members of our family and this line of work requires a great bond, trust that not only will the animals be treated with quality care but also the environment that the pet servicer is working withing, treating the space of the home and the accustomed ways the animal is used to living within that home with great respect. I provide a space to clarify what the unique expectations, circumstances and desires are in providing the best care and ensuring most safety, wellbeing and fun for all!
Home
Information Kayleen A. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the dogs personality traits before sitting him or her so that I can respect their boundaries and gain their trust/friendship. • Is your pup okay to be around other dogs? • Does your pup get along with cats? • Is your pup house-trained? • Does your pup have all of its vaccinations and flea and tick medication? • Is your pup on a strict diet or allergic to anything?
A typical day
I understand that animals like to enjoy life just as we do and so, mental stimulation and exercise are great ways to experience the joy of life with an animal. If there is sunshine and clear skies, I am happy to go on a long walk at any time of the day. I am very tuned into the animal I am working with and can sense if it is experiencing anxiety or boredom, or is hungry, it all is clear to me and so, I will do what feels most appropriate.
