I am a life long animal lover that has followed her heart into this career. Currently I volunteer at an animal refuge to help care for local wildlife. That has added to my animal care experience in a new and exciting way but I have grown up with dogs and have done pet sitting for many years. The past two years the pet sitting became more frequent. Now I do this full time as The Awesome Pet Sitter and I've never been happier. Being around animals is truly what makes me happy. Since taking this on full time I have gotten my business certified, bonded AND insured. I want my clients to feel completely at ease and know that there precious pet children are in great hands. If you have minor behavior correction needs with your pet child(ren) I am more than happy to help correct those issues. If things like potty training, leash pulling, jumping up on you and guest or excited barking are troubling you, I have learned some truly awesome and modern training techniques, which use ONLY POSITIVE reinforcement, that may be exactly what you need! I offer this as a stand alone service or it can be added on to your pups stay with me! I do live in a house with a screened in patio and a fenced in back yard. They will have most of the house to roam about and can be on the patio or in the back yard to get some fresh air. I am with them at all times while they are outside. I welcome all animals in my home as long as they have a non aggressive temperament and are fine with children because I do have an 8 year old son. I treat your pet children like my very own! I am happy to do a meet and greet before any booking to make sure The Awesome Pet Sitter is the awesome fit for your needs!
