From home Conscious Caregiver

Pet care experience

I love animals! I love connecting with them and learning about their different traits and needs. I have friends in the dog training business that have given me lots of tips and training on how they do things.

Thomas was very good at keeping me posted. He sent photos and videos and updates often he even got my very lazy cat to play hunt for the bird. She seemed very happy and relaxed when we arrived home I would definitely invite Thomas back to hang out with Graycee again. I booked housesitting, even though there was no need for him to sleep at our house. I wanted him to spend more time with her than a quick drop in. I’m not sure if this was the right way to set that up but that was our hopes anyway. I was happy to see photos of her, enjoying her time with him and not just hiding away somewhere he is clearly an animal person. I really appreciated the time he spent with my girl.

Very great dog sitter! Krista sent me pictures of the dog every day. The dog looked very happy when I picked him up. Definitely would use her again.

Krista and their partner did an amazing job taking care of my cat. They provided frequent updates and are very experienced. My cat was entertained throughout the stay. I recommend their services.

Krista and her partner did a fabulous job watching our dog Norma. She often takes a really long time to adjust to her new surroundings but I was surprised to see how relaxed she was in their care. We have used their services twice now and plan on using them again. Just nice to know I don't have to worry about our dog while on vacation!

Well I put my clients needs first. Just like when I nanny or do childcare work or teaching I really try to listen to the "parents" aka pet owners in this scenario and listen to what their desires are. Ultimately I'm working for you so I want your cares and concerns to come first! I am very happy to provide or use your toys and play with your pet and pamper them. Give them just enough food and space to warm up to me. Let me know if your pets have any dietary needs. I have experience taking care of pets with seizures as well and giving their medicine in with their daily meals.

I don't have pets currently, so I am very open to accommodating your pets personal needs. I am definitely an animal lover and excited to be around your beautiful pet I get to care for! By the way, I speak intermediate Spanish with some beginner level French, Mandarin, Japanese, Bahasa Malayu/Indo, and a little Thai.

A typical day

Life is an adventure . Let's play and have plenty of fun together! I'm excited to take your pets on plenty of adventures in any way I can. We have a huge balcony with a very big window to see out of, many of the pets love this!
