Safety, trust & environment

My dogs are crate trained and my pets typically spend their nights in their designated areas. In the mornings everyone is opened, greeted with many pets and kisses, and fed. The dogs are walked and trained for a bit before my departure. I make sure to leave a few brain engaging toys/ treats while gone for the day. Once I return, the process is repeated with a longer evening walk and extra cuddle time. My senior dog required a bit more attention with daily injections and a specific diet. I am sure I would take care of your pet with the same care and love I give my pets.

Information Marcia C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements for their care. For example I would appreciate knowing about medications, specific schedules, things that may spook your pet, favorite treats/toys, etc.

A typical day

I love to physically stimulate dogs while playing fetch, rug of rope, and include some mental stimulation with long structured walked. One of my favorite things to do are bring my dogs to the beach.

Pet care experience

I have l had the responsibility of taking care of my home pets ever since I could remember. We’ve always had a full house with dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, guinea pigs, chickens, and even a macaw. I have experience with senior dogs that require extra care as I have one of my own. I have also taken a few puppy training classes that I have used on my dogs as well as pups of close friends. Most of my pets have been rescues and I was able to use those skills to break bad, destructive habits that could’ve resulted in injury.

I have had the honor of getting to know Marcia for about seven years, both as a close friend and as a coworker. When it comes to her job, she takes her work very seriously and shows exemplary professionalism. Outside of work and her being a full-time student, Marcia cares for several animals at her home including her two dogs, cat, turtle, chickens, and a macaw. She is the kindest and most patient person I know when dealing with any animal she encounters and I am confident she will be a great fit for your organization.
