Professional Temporary Pet Buddy
Pet care experience
I've had my own variety of pets my whole life. My main job is a dog trainer, and I also train service team dogs. I had my own pet caretaking business in high school and college and still enjoy every minute. I have experience with caring for puppies including mama dogs birthing puppies, as well as senior dogs with disabilities. I'm comfortable around all breeds and personalities as well as homes with both dogs, cats,and even exotic pets. I have experience caring for dogs prone to seizures. I'm currently self employed, which allows me a fairly open schedule. I am a mom of a special needs 5 year old. I'm always available to house and pet sit as well as for training. In client homes, I enjoy playing with your pups in the backyard when available. I have no problem taking your dogs to a local dog park if that is a viable alternative, and always clean up pet waste regardless of where it's left. It's likely I'll try to teach your pet something new and exciting just for fun. Snuggles are always guaranteed, and also interactive treats or toys that I always get approved by my clients at the start of the appointment. I will not leave a dog out in extreme weather conditions of any kind under any circumstances and while outside, I make it a rule to ensure access to fresh water for the duration of outside time.
Reviews
Malaea was a wonderful sitter for our cat and dog. She communicates well, sends pictures and videos while we were away, and even had special treats for our dogs birthday 🎉. We will use her services again in the future!
Malaea was awesome! She took great care of our dogs while we were away. I would strongly recommend her and we will be using her services again. Cathy Chapman
Malaea watched my dog Leo for 10 days when we were out of town, staying overnight periodically. She was communicative, understanding, and attentive and helped me feel comfortable having someone watch Leo for the first time. She took excellent care of Leo and the house during our time away.
Appreciate Malaea willing to work with my schedule and taking care of my old pups

Safety, trust & environment
Fur babies get plenty of access to outside when I visit and lots of snuggles inside. Where we play is largely based on the weather, but no matter what we will spend plenty of time together.
Information Malaea W. would like to know about your pet
Special Needs and medications or behaviors are an absolute must for me to offer your pet the best care, but it's also important to know about favorite toys, bad habits, and typical routines.
A typical day
I love to keep dogs excited and engaged. I am attentive to mixing up our walking routes. I like to plan my visits according to pet personalities. High energy pets will get much more outside time and games/toys that burn energy, whereas pets with separation anxiety will get more snuggles and maybe a movie night with belly scratches. Potential highlights long riverside walks or for people greeters, perhaps a visit to a nearby playground. There's also always The chance for walking trails in nearby parks or a splash day for water dogs (with pet parent permission of course).
