Pet care experience

Your Furry Friend’s Friend :)

I’ve had had the privilege of caring for many creatures across my life (dogs, cats, praying mantises, spiders…) and would love to help you care for yours! I have two wonderful dogs: Ozzie and Lily. They keep me on a strict schedule for activity time (walks, playing, etc) and feeding. Trust me, they’ve trained me well! I also grew up with two cocker spaniels, Droopy and Floppy, and a German shepherd-beagle mix, Scooby. Every dog has so much character and it’s an absolute joy to learn their unique personalities!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets based on their individual needs with insight from their owners. For example, I can trust my dog Lily to behave herself home alone, but with Ozzie, I know I have to provide him a spacious kennel to prevent him from getting anxious and chewing up the carpet. Regardless, I provide them lots of love, playtime, and outside time whether it be a walk or a potty trip. I have a fenced backyard personally and my dogs (and even my cat with supervision) love to spend time out there.

I’ve never met anyone with a heart for all pets (and children) like Margaret. She really has such a kind and responsible disposition, careful and considerate. she’s been watching our dogs and cat for quite. A while now, and I swear it seems my dog gets happy when my suitcases come out. Seeing her is a special treat for them, and it takes a load of worry off of my mind because I they’re not only expertly cared for, but also having the time of their lives. I highly decried her as a caretaker for your fur babies. But only on the condition that it isn’t at a time when I need her for mine. On a five star scale, she gets seven.

An emergency contact would also be a great precaution.
