I have an involved style with both you and your pet; I want to keep you at ease and connected to your pet when they are in my hands: the best care possible. Of course, some people prefer to shut off the world when they travel, so I don't enforce a constant-contact policy, but if it appeals to you, then you will be pleased with my methods. I do, however, require Meet & Greets for all new clients: I can not negotiate on this policy. It is absolutely imperative that I meet your pet before caring for them in your absence not only to ensure that your fur baby feels comfortable with me, but also because there are so many tiny nuances that we don't even notice about our mannerisms that I should observe so I know how best to handle your pet when you're away. I have had many clients respond to some of my questions with, "I never actually thought about that preferential choice for my dog," and they learned a new detail about their pet they hadn't considered before. I believe I am gifted with an aura or pheromonal chemistry that is attractive to animals and they are drawn to me. Even the most difficult or aggressive animals warm up to me almost immediately. Some trainers have said that my demeanor demonstrates Alpha and therefore animals receive me as a protector, though of course that is just a theory, but I felt it worth mentioning. I am firm, alert, and direct but equally affectionate and protective. Thus, I can state with full confidence that you will be very satisfied choosing me to care for your fur babies.
