I'll love your pets like my own :)

Pet care experience

Throughout my life, I have gained extensive experience in caring for a variety of animals. I have had the opportunity to watch over both dogs and cats, as well as birds and all types of small pets in the past, showcasing my ability to cater to the needs of different species. I currently have a dog, Tess, a hedgehog, Pickles, and three ferrets, Lucky, Buddy, and Miso! One noteworthy experience involved staying at a friend's house for a week while looking after their family's three dogs, which ranged from small to large in size. During this period, I diligently attended to their well-being by ensuring they were properly fed, administering any necessary medications, engaging them in playtime, and taking them for regular walks.

I would have Leah come any time. She followed all directions and made sure my cat came out to eat and know she was here. After meeting Leah I was sure she would be very responsible and caring and did not worry about anything.

Safety, trust & environment

Recognizing that pet care encompasses a diverse range of responsibilities, I have consistently demonstrated my commitment to fulfilling these duties effectively. I prioritize providing appropriate nutrition, regular exercise, proper grooming, and routine veterinary care for my own dog, and whoever's pet I'm taking care of. Adapting my care routine to meet the unique needs and preferences of each pet ensures their happiness and overall health! If your pet requires any specific routines/treatments regarding their care, I will be able to follow them.

Information Leah Z. would like to know about your pet

Some of the information I like to have before caring for a new animal includes their dietary requirements/restrictions, any relevant medical history, daily routines, and any emergency contacts. All of the other important information to know is typically provided by Rover!

A typical day

When it comes to engaging and having fun with the dogs I watch, I like to tailor the activities to their individual preferences and energy levels. I love taking them outside to run around together and play in yards. I also enjoy playing fetch or tug-of-war with them, and of course giving them lots of love and attention. If there are any parks or dog-friendly areas nearby, I like taking them there as an opportunity to explore and enjoy their surroundings. Ultimately, the activities and locations chosen depend on the dogs' personalities, their comfort level with other animals, and any specific restrictions or preferences communicated by their owners. The primary goal is to ensure the dogs have a safe, enjoyable, and enriching experience during our time together.

I am currently working two part-time jobs, but my schedule is quite flexible. Given my passion for animals and genuine love for spending time with them, I am ecstatic to start devoting a more significant portion of my time to animal care.
