Must Love Animals!

Pet care experience

I have over 12 years of experience in care of many different pets including dogs, cat, reptiles, bunnies, horses and livestock. I have experience with many breeds and temperaments and can also administer basic medications. I have a deep love for all animals and have always gravitated towards animal rescue work. I work full time for the County of Santa Cruz but find pet care on my off hours thoroughly rewarding. For years I have also fostered when available to do so. I love the opportunity to get to know and bond with more animals all the time. I can provide extensive references from previous clients as well as local rescues I have worked with. I also offer in home pet care for clients dependent on the behavior of the pets with other animals. I never leave guest animals in my home together with my animals unattended. I also have pet cameras set up throughout my home to monitor all animals during time away from the house. I would love the opportunity to chat with you about your pet care needs and see if I would be a good fit for your furry family member(s)!

Kendall is great! She was very communicative, checked in with me frequently, sent pictures of my pup. She spent a ton of time with him. Travel can be tough leaving your dog in situations you know they aren’t comfortable with but Kendall helped me feel at ease knowing he was happy in his home. Would recommend to anyone!

Information Kendall H. would like to know about your pet

Breed is no issue, but any information on temperament or triggers is helpful to provide best care possible. What you're dog likes/dislikes. Any food allergies or sensitivities. Any medication or vitamin regimen if needed. Emergency contacts and vet info in case of emergency. It is always a good practice to notify your pets vet that you will be having someone care for your pet if you will be away for an extended period of time to allow for easier vet care if an emergency arises. Especially for special needs pets.

A typical day

Walks and outings dependent on what owner recommends or the dogs behavior. Owners instructions are always followed. I have transportation that is dog friendly for outings when time permits and if allowed. I prefer to keep all dogs leashed when on outings or walks for precaution. If instructed by owner I am more then willing to visit specified dog parks. I also have long training leashes for more free play in parks and on open beaches in a safe and secure manner. Pets get lots of cuddles and potty breaks as needed. I love to play with mind enrichment dog toys or puzzle toys and think it is very rewarding for the dogs.
