Some of my best friends have been fur people. For the first time in five decades I don't have a pet of my own. I'm skilled, strong and balanced in my approach, as well as playful, energetic and conscientious. I give minimum of one update per day - all with photo or video. I have owned labs, shepherds, terriers, hounds, bully breeds, and blended pet landscapes over the years with cats, reptiles and birds. I have used a wide array of collars and leashes to keep myself and pets in my care safe and free from harm. I have a blast with my mother's little black pug, Betty Boop (pictured) a.k.a. the Kraken, when they visit a couple times a year from Michigan. Call on me and I will simultaneously be of service to you and your fur bestie. MEET & GREETS - The best way to start is the invaluable meet and greets I require for all services. ALL ANIMALS LISTED: I need a full accounting of every animal in the house, listed on the profile, before a meet and greet can be scheduled. Involved in my service or not, pretty rarely not, I am responsible for all animals present. NO CONSTANT CARE: Round the clock or constant care, are not available at this time. I have regular appointments daily. HOUSE SITS: Minimum house-sit requirements = House (no apartments or condos) Names of all key holders, No job sharing/others staying in the house, Off-street parking, WiFi, Bed in a room with a door that closes, Room in the fridge/working kitchen. Cameras inside house may be covered or unplugged while I am present and reactivated each time I leave, depending on location. Let's talk about it VISIT MINIMUMS: Minimum walk/drop-ins for dogs: 3 per day (3rd visit can be a shorter). Minimum visits for cats: 1 per day. DROP INS = Dog: play in secure yard off the house. No leash. Cat/bird/reptile/fish: play, scoop, feed/water. WALKS = Dog, appropriate collar to prevent pulling, leashed and out in local shady neighborhood for approx 25 mins - the rest is spent giving water/feed/treat/leashing. For walks - if you need a minimum speed or distance covered, I am not the right fit, but yer fur buddy will get stimulating interaction the whole time. Please note, any housesits/visits on the nearby key (Siesta) bookings may have a minimum $10/day service/drawbridge/traffic fee between November 1st and April 30th. I strive to give families comfort and peace of mind when some are away from home and those left behind feel happy and secure. I hope we're a match!
