Information Lena M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your pet is shy or social, nervous (of new people, thunderstorms, noises, etc.), or anxious. If the dog ever bit somebody (even if it was an accident), I would like to know that too. I'll ask about your favorite plays of your pet, diet preferences, and anything else you would like to share with me. I love talking about pets, their cuteness and korkiness.

A typical day

I'll play ball with your dog. We'll run together playing catch and play tug-of-war. I love giving belly rubs. With your cat I'll play hide and seek, or will just rub their necks.

Cat and dog lover.

Pet care experience

I've owned pets my whole life. My gentle composure and empathic nature make them feel loved and safe with me. I fostered a puppy from the Caribbean that nobody else wants to deal with. Within a month, she let me pet her and take her on walks. I train dogs with care and lots of pets!

Lena was great with Thor. He is a afraid of noise and there were fireworks, but she took very good care of him!

Lena was a calm, caring presence for my senior kitty -- just what he needed. I so appreciated her photos and videos as well. Will definitely use her again!
