Before watching a pet, I think it’s very important to know their routine, personality, and any special needs so I can give them the best care possible. I like to learn about their feeding schedule, favorite activities, energy level, bathroom routine, medications, allergies, and any medical concerns ahead of time. It’s also helpful to know how they interact with other animals and people, along with any fears or anxieties they may have, such as thunderstorms, loud noises, or separation anxiety. I also like to know what commands they understand, whether they have any training in progress, and what helps them feel most comfortable while their owner is away. Learning about their favorite toys, treats, sleeping spots, and daily habits helps me keep their routine consistent and stress-free. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, loved, and as comfortable as possible in their familiar environment.

When caring for pets, I love keeping them active, happy, and comfortable with activities that match their personality and energy level. For active dogs, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, tug-of-war, outdoor adventures, and practicing basic commands or tricks to keep them mentally stimulated. For puppies, I can help reinforce simple training like leash manners, potty routines, and positive behaviors through play and consistency. For senior pets, I focus on gentle walks, relaxing companionship, light play, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also enjoy interactive games, puzzle toys, cuddle time, and giving plenty of attention to pets who simply enjoy company and affection.
