I love sending lots of updates to my clients about how their pet is doing. I have very high standards with my communication, and I always send photos, emails or texts based on what my client's preference is. I like to help my clients feel at ease while on vacation or while they are away from their baby, so that they can relax and know that their sweet loved one is having a great time. I usually send updates in the morning, afternoon and evening, and I always have my phone on so that my clients can reach me any time if they need to. My typical routine for pet care is based on the changing needs and requests of my clients, but I like to spend ample time playing, on walks, and outside getting them plenty of exercise. I follow feeding instructions based on the pet and client needs and preferences, and spend a lot of time cuddling, and being a companion, sometimes going on outings together like hiking, dog friendly cafes or dog parks, etc... I have flexible availability, so I am open to the needs of my clients and we can discuss schedule on a case by case basis. My home and property is on 50 acres of beautiful country living on the outskirts of Poway/Ramona in the mountains, we have plenty of land for dogs to run and play, and lots of land for potential hiking together. It's a doggie paradise! I work from home, I help manage 2 businesses part-time via my computer, so I am very flexible and can pick up my "office" and go where I need to go. I spend all of my time caring for animals when I'm not out running errands... it's just what I do, and it is second nature to me since I have lived with animals and on farms since I was a little girl. I live out on the beautiful 50 acres with my husband, we don't have any children, because our client's babies are also our babies when they are in our care...
