I am currently a therapist that works mostly remote, so I am able to visit the fur babies in-between clients throughout the day. I have a general routine with Bo Peep as well.

Information Lucas D. would like to know about your pet

I LOVE and I am VERY knowledgeable about deaf dogs and their unique behaviors and potential behavioral concerns that can differ from hearing dogs. I’ve done so much research and practice, training Bo Peep entirely myself. I am also knowledgeable about various conditions and abilities that dogs and cats may/may not have. Senior and/or Disabled dogs and cats are very welcome. I know a lot about birds and reptiles as well, so I will absolutely work with them as well. I would need to know about any medical concerns, and mobility and their disability to make sure I give the correct care. We also need to know if they are friendly toward other animals and other or if they need distance and alone time. I enjoy any important facts and things you enjoy and love about them. The more knowledge I have, the better care I can give your pet while also preparing ahead of time. I request arranging a prior meeting with you to make sure they meet me and that I am a good fit.

A typical day

We enjoy hiking, cuddling, swimming, just generally being outdoors, playing in the house, snuggles and affection, and other options for pets that I’m caring for if they enjoy these activities. For kitties/cats, I take a lot of time to play, give pets if they like them, and make sure they get the mental stimulation they need. Lots of cuddles if they also like to do so.

Pets

A Therapist and a Sweet Deaf Pittie

Pet care experience

Hello y’all, I am very experienced in training dogs and caring for dogs, cats, and most other animals. I have a lot of knowledge about dog and cat health, along with other animals (reptiles, birds, horses, etc.), and different breeds. My sweet Bo Peep is a deaf, well-behaved pittie I trained in ASL. She LOVES other dogs, cats, kids, and adults. She LOVES to go on walks and play, so she would join me only if your pet enjoys the company of other dogs and with your consent. Since I know ASL commands and symbols through my work with Bo Peep, I am able to work well with other deaf/hard-of-hearing animals trained (or I can assist in training) in ASL. I’ve been lucky enough to have and/or care for all sorts of animals throughout my entire life, especially growing up as a feral child in Florida. I always tried to bring animals home, and I’ve worked with various animals (e.g. birds of all sizes, reptiles, cats and dogs especially, horses, amphibians, fish, and some other farm animals). I have no problem giving medication or following any medical-related plans. We look forward to meeting y’all! -Bo Peep and Lucas

Lucas was a great sitter! He was very attentive to our pets, we felt like they were well taken care of! He sent a lot of pictures and videos which we appreciated! His dog, Bo Peep, is the sweetest and was fantastic company to our dogs!
