Dog Lover Extraordinaire!
Pet care experience
I have worked in dog and cat rescue for 5 years, both hands on with force-free, reward-based training, behavioral education, adopting out dogs to the public, marketing, vetting, and additional responsibilities. I also have my own dog so I have both professional and personal experience with dogs. I am a HUGE dog lover with a big heart and would love to spend time caring for your dog (and cat!). I work from home part-time and my schedule is flexible. It does vary week-to-week but if given advance notice, I can make sure to have you scheduled regularly on my calendar for a set time! After 10 a.m. and before 7 p.m. is best for me, but I'm of course willing to make exceptions if needed. My own dog has run of the house but I am happy to do whatever you prefer to keep your dog safe (e.g., baby gate, crate). I need to know how your dog reacts to new people entering the home and always want to make sure all parties are comfortable. I would never want your dog being fearful, so I prefer a meet and greet in your home before I begin caring for your pet without you present.
Reviews
Liza was so awesome! She took such great care of Marley. I came home to a calm and happy pup.
Liza is the best!
Liza is always the BEST! Prompt responses. Detailed recaps of visits to ensure all is well with our pups. Would give 10 stars if Rover let me!
Liza is the best! A refreshing blend of competence and communication. Do you like to not worry about your pet when you’re away from home? Then hire Liza.

Skills
Information Liza K. would like to know about your pet
It's important that I know all about your dog - his or her likes, dislikes, any medical conditions or medications he/she takes or needs on an "as needed" basis, how your dog reacts when someone new comes in their home, is your dog food-motivated, and more! I want to make sure I am very familiar with your dog so everyone is set up for success!
A typical day
Depending on your dog's energy level, I will adjust our play date and/or walk accordingly. Throwing a ball in your fenced backyard, going to your dog's favorite park, playing with their toys, whatever makes your dog happy!
