Your Furry Friend's Pawsome Sitter!

I'm so excited to have the opportunity to care for animals! As a lifelong animal lover, I've always felt a strong bond with our furry friends. I've had some experience pet-sitting for neighbors and friends, and it's been such a joy to help out and give their pets the love and attention they need. I'm responsible and reliable, so you can trust that your pets will be in good hands with me. I've had pets of my own in the past, so I know firsthand how to take care of dogs and cats and give them the love they deserve. And of course, they'll be welcomed into my animal-loving home with open arms. I've got you covered when it comes to giving medication and dog training - I've got experience in both. Whether you need a late-night or early-morning drop-in, I'm happy to work around your schedule. I'm flexible and available whenever you need me. Let's make sure your pet has an amazing time while you're gone!

As always, Chicken had a blast! I love the photo updates daily and Chicken loves to leave me behind and crash his way into Leslie’s house (:

Schedule

I am home for the majority of the time, so your furry friend will have constant companionship during their stay. You won't have to worry about them feeling lonely, as they'll have both me and my friendly dog Oreo, who is always happy to play with new friends. Don't worry, I'll make sure your furry friend sleeps just the way they like it - comfy and cozy all the way! Whether they like snoozing in a cozy crate or snuggling up on the bed, I'm happy to accommodate their sleeping preferences. During drop ins: I usually visit the pet's home to make sure they have everything they need, like food, water, and exercise. I also take care to make sure that each pet is healthy and happy, and I make it my top priority to provide personalized care that's suited to their unique needs and preferences.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm excited to offer a fantastic backyard at my home that's perfect for dogs of all kinds! It's spacious, fenced in, and most importantly, safe and secure. So whether they're a ball of energy or an escape artist, they'll have plenty of room to run, play, and explore without any worries. I take great care to make sure that my yard is always in top shape for my furry guests, so they can have a great time and enjoy some fresh air while they're staying with me.

A typical day

I live in a wonderful neighborhood that boasts a high walkability score, making it perfect for a stroll. With lots of dogs out and about on their daily walks, it's great for socializing and meeting new canine pals. Additionally, we are conveniently located just 5 minutes away from a local dog park that features separate areas for small and large dogs. And if your dog is up for a longer walk, I really enjoy taking them across the Bayonne bridge - it's a beautiful walk with amazing views and plenty of space for exercise!

Whether your furry friend has a medical condition or behavioral challenges, I'm here to help make their stay as comfy and fun as possible. Just let me know what they need, and I'll do everything in my power to ensure they're well taken care of while they're with me! With my extensive experience working with dogs with special needs, I know the importance of being prepared. By understanding your dog's unique requirements beforehand, I can make sure that I have all the necessary tools, resources, and accommodations on hand to give them the best possible care.
