Care, Love, Compassion and Cuddles!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. Growing up with a dash hound, Jack Russell and then rescuing my golden retriever husky mix for 13 years and my rescue Rottweiler for 5 years. Also, the past 10 years was the official dog sitter of all my friends dogs including a Saint Bernard, frenchie, golden retriever, lab and basset hound! Love dog sitting it is my happy place and love the different characters of each and every dog baby!

Kerry is absolutely amazing. My pup loved spending time with her - either cuddling on the couch or lounging in the back porch with her. We greatly appreciated her constant communication and the care taken while our pup was in her care.

Our dog had a great weekend with Kerry! We especially appreciated the cute photos! Kerry was great with communication and we were confident that our pup was in good hands.

Very pleased! This was our first time using a Petsitter outside of our family/friends and we couldn’t have been more impressed. I know our pup was in super hands. Very appreciative of Kerry’s updates, and we could tell that Riggs felt comfortable and happy the whole time we were away. Kerry is wonderful!

Safety, trust & environment

My home is open to all fur babies. My girl crossed the rainbow bridge and she had freedom inside the house, her food and water was kept in the kitchen, she would cuddle with me on the couch and sleep in bed with me. While dog sitting experiences all dogs had freedom unless specified by their owner the dog liked to sleep in their crate for a medical reason. I am also great with any age furbaby and if they have medical needs. My Rottweiler had medical conditions with special food and pills that had to be given daily twice a day.

Information Kerry W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know their temperament. Playful and energy level. Any medical needs; special diets, medications, elderly. If they are able to have treats and if there are specific treats as I have a dog treat/toy shop in walking distance. How are they with other dogs as I live is a dog friendly community. If they are scared of any certain things. What’s their favorite toy? Are they allowed on the furniture?

A typical day

I have toys in the house so if they are playful they are taken care of as well as a walking trail behind my house. If they enjoy playing with other dogs there is a dog park in walking distance. During summer I have a few beautiful places if they like to swim and play catch. With my two rescue dogs in their older age they like shorter slower walks and relaxing in the grass while I sat on a bench so I will go with the dogs pace. Brushing and cuddles on the couch or bed to wind down the day.
