Pet care experience

Love to walk, run, and play!

I love animals, being outside, and exercise. I have a 9 year old Rottweiler and 2 year old Chihuahua. My dogs are amazingly well trained and very used to many different dogs and temperaments. I am extremely reliable and looking for just a little part time fun and more dog snuggles. I believe in positive reinforcement, exercise, boundaries and lots of love. I used to work with foster kids and was a foster parent for many years prior to moving and now currently working on remodeling my house, raising my toddler and property management . My favorite hobby is roller derby and working out. I am excited to meet your family member and have them as part of my family while you are away.

Another great visit from Marissa! She even got my little one to eat his dinner, which he typically won't do if I'm not home! She's a dog whisperer!

Super good with communication and was able to take my dog on pretty long walks despite her usually being reactive. She kept me updated with pictures and report card. Will definitely use her again!

Schedule

I work from home and am very available. Me and my dogs have a normal schedule that works well. Including first thing in the morning potty, food, walk. I work around the house so plenty of potty breaks. And dinner for the doggies is at 5p. Then when it cools off maybe another walk and cuddle time. I have had to learn to care for my senior dog who recently passed.
