Hi, I’m Lily!
Pet care experience
Since I was born I’ve always lived with lots of dogs and cats. I’m most happy around animals and I love caring for them. On top of owning both large and small dogs as well as cats, I also have dog fostering experience. With fostering, I was the primary caregiver to dogs of all ages and special needs. Growing up, I frequently took care of friends dogs, everything from chihuahuas to Great Danes. I have also always been involved in volunteering at animal shelters. I’m currently President of Man’s Best Friend at Gonzaga and I coordinate 150+ volunteers to Spokanimal, the local animal shelter.
Reviews
Lily was outstanding. She clearly loves animals and has a lot of experience taking care of them. It was reassuring to know that she's worked as a volunteer at an animal shelter for many years. She knows what she's doing and we felt very good about leaving our Tingo with her. Our dog loved her!!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always try and make any animal as comfortable and happy as possible. If I see a dog that is shy, I’ll wait for them to warm up to me rather than rushing them to play or cuddle. At the same time, if I sense that a dog has a lot of energy or wants lots of affection I’m more than happy to play and snuggle!!
Information Lily C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any specials needs or concerns I should be aware of - health, behavioral, or otherwise! I am very comfortable and experienced with animals with a wide range of health and behavioral “issues” but it is very helpful to both me and your pet if I know these things in advance.
A typical day
Depending on the dog’s energy level - we would probably go for a nice long walk, check out all the smells in the area. We then might play detach or go back home for some cuddles :)

Availability
I’m currently working part-time and would love to fill that extra time around animals. Since my current lifestyle in a small apartment does not best accommodate having a dog, a love being around them any chance I can get.
