When I dog sit I like to meet ahead of time to meet the pets and hear from you in person what the routine is what are some concerns and are there specifics your pet needs and just to meet them with you around and not me just coming over and never meeting them!

Information Lauren Z. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any allergies for treats, what they are allowed and not allowed to do. if there is any behavior problems with people or dogs.

A typical day

I will do as much as you do with your dog and even more. and try to keep there routine as normal as they would with family. i will spend much time with them in where ever they need.

Pet care experience

I wanted to be a dog trainer but life had a different idea for me. But I got 7 years of experience starting with a job at a boarding rescue and vet office all in one but I mostly worked with the boarders and rescues. First time seeing dogs in a area outside of there home and got to experience new behaviors good and bad and how to deal with each dog since dogs are all very different. Got to work with dogs who needed special medicine for all kinds of needs (seizures, allergies etc.) I worked at this place for 2 years I also got to interact with the vet sections and see how Vets are run. My 2nd job was working at a daycare, boarding and grooming facility here I learned even more behavior management in a play setting. I also know how to clip nails and bathe dogs properly. I have worked with both big and small dogs love them in all there sizes and ages. I own 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own. My 2 dogs are my pride and joys so I definitely understand the saying fur babies because they are my babies I got them when I was a senior in high school Bruno was a rescue from my first job and couldn't resist him
