Pet care experience
You can never have too many pets in your life! That's why I love sitting. I get to meet so many wonderful animals, all with different personalities and quirks. My approach to dog siting is to adapt myself to the dog's usual routine as much as possible. If your dog wants me to be a morning person, I'm up at 6am running with them (though your dog might be asked to share a nap time with me later). Do they like to cuddle and watch Netflix? Binge watching it is! I can take your dog on adventures or just relax with them at home. I have over 25 years of pet sitting experience and have experience with medically fragile dogs, reactive dogs, and puppies. My own pup is reactive, so I do not dog sit in my home. When I’m sitting, my pup is cared for by my husband and two teens. I am experienced at administering medications, including injections, and can perform care such as wound dressing changes. When not caring for dogs, I care for humans as a Registered Nurse. I also have experience with exotic pets and can care for your scaly or feathered friends while you’re away too!
Reviews
Lacie took great care of my dog. I've used her for both day care and boarding and was very comfortable leaving my dog in her care both times. It's obvious that she loves dogs and knows how to interact with them. She will give your dog lots of attention and even work on training if you want her to.
Baxter had a great stay with Lacie and her family. He ate all his food (which he normally does not do due to nerves). We received plenty of updates about Baxter's status throughout the weekend. We will definitely use Lacie again in the future.
Our dog was well cared for and treated as their own. Would highly recommend!
I would highly recommend Lacie! She gave us updates with plenty of photos. Izzy had a great weekend full of walks and playing catch! We will definitely have Izzy stay with Lacie in the future!
About Lacie G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always ask about your safety routine with your pet. Do they bolt out of the door; what is your method to prevent this? Do they need to be kept away from other dogs and dog parks? Do they love to meet people on walks or should we keep to ourselves? I have cared for dogs with allergies, seizures and reactivity and can implement any special safety precautions your dog may need.
Information Lacie G. would like to know about your pet
Let me know about any safety concerns or limitations for your dog. What is he afraid of? What dietary restrictions does she have? Can I give treats?
A typical day
I can take your dog on an all day hike, for a swim at Patapsco, or for a trip to the doggie bakery. I even took a dog I was sitting to help us pick out our Christmas tree one year!
