Your pet's cool Aunt!
Pet care experience
Hello, I'm Lisa! I have taken care of a variety of animals for the last 20 years! Currently, I have two guinea pigs, Scooby and Shaggy. They are my little pride and joy. Over the years, I have had dogs, cats, bunnies, fish! I can handle any age of any pets: Puppies to seniors! I have experience in housing breaking puppies, and even assisting senior dogs. I can handle any type of pet, temperament, and age. Each week I make my own work schedule, which means I can change my schedule to accommodate your pet. I have a very flexible work schedule that I am allowed to work from home or leave work to go home to tend to your pet. I also can take your pet to my work (office setting) if you would allow that! I would make sure your pet is my top priority! I would spoil them with love and attention. However, I would honor your normal feeding times/restrictions and respect any rules you put into place. Playing time is a must!
Reviews
Lisa has been so wonderful with our dog! We're so grateful she's available to walk her.
Lisa is great! She stayed at our house and took care of our two dogs and numerous other pets. She's very kind and responsible!

Safety, trust & environment
When I am at a clients home safety and respect and my top priorities. Before letting a dog outside I will check to make sure the fence are locked. I will always make sure windows and doors are locked before leaving, and just before I will do one final check to make sure all food it put away and crates are locked. (If using crate). I will follow all clients instructions and ask for a print out list of instructions so there is no communication error. I won’t cross any owners boundaries.
Information Lisa G. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know all of their favorite and least favorite things to do. So I can plan their activities to their likings. I also would like to do if the dog has any disabilities; deaf, bad back etc.
A typical day
When I am watching dogs I love to do anything that will promote exercise and brain activity. Walks, swimming, fetch, tug-of-war! Then after, something relaxing like a long belly scratch
