Pet care experience

I have a lot of experience with dogs of many different breeds. From pit bulls to pugs, I have my fair share of knowledge. :) I have always had one to three dogs in my home growing up. I love taking my pups on walks, to the dog park, or just spending time with them on the couch. I have had a few shih tzu’s, a pug, a rottweiler/doberman mix, and a pit bull mix throughout my life. All of my dogs were rescue dogs and had a variety of different backgrounds. Two of my dogs we got as puppies and were able to train them, the others were older and lived anywhere from 11-17 years old. Some of my dogs were extremely high energy dogs and some were extremely lazy dogs! Some needed to go on a walk once a day while others absolutely dreading exercise altogether but, I managed to learn what worked for both kinds of pups and was able to give them all what they wanted and needed! One of my shih tzu’s was blind, deaf, had skin problems and had diabetes too so, I have a bit of experience injecting medications for dogs as well as caring for pups with overall special needs. I worked in a hotel for a few years and have acquired many cleaning skills (steam cleaning, vacuuming, cleaning toilets, tile, hardwood flooring, mopping, sweeping, etc.) After the hotel, I worked at an emergency animal clinic for a bit and then did some volunteer work at the Kitsap Humane Society for a few years as well and was able to learn a bit of animal first aid with dogs and animals in general.

We loved Malia and Mekai...they were so responsive and sent us pictures every day of our fur babies. Our house was cleaner than we left it and the dogs almost looked at us with disappointment when we came home... I would highly recommend them and we will definitely have them back again!

Malia did a wonderful job taking care of my dog and two cats. She would regularly send me updates and photos. Her communication was great and I returned home to happy animals!

I care for my own pets by taking them on a walk every night before bed. Two times a month my dogs and I go to the dog park, more often if I have extra time. I feed them, bathe them, take them to vet appointments, and of course give them loads of pets and cuddles! (Because I am still living with my mom, my animals will be fine at our house with her while I am caring for your animals!)

Information Malia F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has: - any special needs to consider - medicines - food intolerances - is free fed or eats at a certain time of the day/ how many times a day your dog(s) eat - has a raw diet or standard kibble diet, etc. or anything else I should account for! I have no breed specifications either :) Thank you!

A typical day

My dogs and I enjoy going to the dog park every once in a while when we have time and the weather is decent and we go on walks daily.
