Whether or not they have any triggers such as cars, loud noises, other dogs, the mailman, doorbell ringing, ? etc If they need meds, how they are with new people?, any routines they follow, best place to take them for a walk, what times to feed them, any vet appointments they may have, any places in the house or outside they should avoid, any other dogs, cats, people they should avoid.

Pet care experience

I have over 22 years experience. Ever since I was little, me my family bred and raised Labradors. At 10 I got the chance to take care of my other relative's dogs. To this day I enjoy walking, and taking care of other pets. I'm comfortable watching larger dogs too, as I have experience watching Pit-bulls and 100lbs+ Rottweilers.

My little dog Bella, is much older now. Her face is white as a ghost. Laura understood that my older dog has special requirements like a nice slow walk and light play-time.
