I really appreciate when pet parents share as much as possible about their pet’s routine, behavior, and needs ahead of time. If your pet has any special needs, like taking medication, dealing with separation anxiety, or having mobility issues: please let me know. I’ve taken care of senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with anxiety or physical disabilities, so I’m happy to adjust how I care for them. It also really helps if you let me know the words or commands you typically use: whether it’s “sit,” “heel,” “stay,” or even words for mealtimes or potty breaks. I want to keep things familiar and comfortable for your pet, so they feel safe and at home even when you’re away. And if there are any habits, quirks, or things your pet doesn’t like (like certain noises, other dogs, or seagulls), just let me know. The more I understand about them, the better I can make sure they’re happy, calm, and well cared for.

A typical day with your pet will be full of love, attention, and activities suited to their energy level and personality. I love stimulating dogs both physically and mentally, so we’ll usually start with a nice walk, either around the neighborhood to enjoy all the exciting smells or, if they’re up for it, a bit of an adventure in nature like a trail in Bymarka. We’ll play games they enjoy: whether that’s fetch, tug-of-war, or puzzle toys for mental stimulation, just something fun to keep their minds engaged. For cats, I make sure they get playtime too, using their favorite toys or just spending quiet time together if that’s more their style. And of course, I always keep them on their usual schedule for feeding, walks, and rest. Every pet is different, so I adjust our day based on their energy and needs: some prefer cuddles and naps, while others love staying active.
