Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Reliable Pet Sitter
I’m an experienced and reliable pet sitter with over 10 years of hands-on animal care experience. I grew up on a farm, which gave me experience caring for animals from a young age and taught me responsibility, patience, and dependable care. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including puppies and senior pets. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while away. I also have experience caring for farm animals and always aim to keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy while treating them like my own. I also have over 13 years of dog training experience training my own dog whom I went on to win many awards in my 4-h dog club for his obedience and went on to become a trainer for the club helping many children learn to train their dogs

Schedule
I accidentally wrote basically my entire profile in the describe a typical section so I'm going to use this spot as a slight bit of advertisement. If you bring me a roll of type, I film for a Polaroid camera. I will make sure the entire role is used on a photo shoot of your animal minus I will be keeping one because no matter what I always take a Polaroid of every animal that I watch to keep. Last bit of advertising if you are really struggling with your dog, pulling and them thinking that they are walking you instead of you walking them completely for free. I will work with them the entire first day (of course after asking permission) and then I will explain to you what I trained them what little tricks work and how you can correct them and then after and from there, you should be able to fully train your dog yourself but if you want more help just reach out to me and I can talk about training plans with you.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have two cats in the house. Both are very friendly and love dogs and other cats when a new animal comes over. It does take them a couple hours to warm up if your dog is friendly, but even if your dog is not friendly towards cats, they will never attack a dog. If your dog is attacking my cats, I will not watch them. I have a rather small apartment so I tend to take dogs to the park right outside my complex at least twice a day and as many walks as they want when I am home all day, and on the days where I am more busy I make sure they are walked minimum four times a day, with cats as I said before, if they get along well with other cats, there will be no problem at all. My cats are super playful, and they will happily include yours in to their playtime and when I observe them playing, I will always join in and play with them with some toys for at least a little while it is also important that your cat is a self feeder and is not prone to bloating. The way that I feed cats that I found has worked for every single kitten that I've raised is. I feel a bowl completely full with food so they can eat whenever they are hungry and whenever that bowl is empty, I refill it if your cat eats like that, it should be fine if you're OK with them eating Purina pro plan live clear then don't worry about food because I am stocked up on cat food. If your cat is prone to bloating or cannot be trusted to figure out how to eat as much as they want whenever they want and be healthy, i'm sorry to say, but you may want to find another sitter because I cannot guarantee that I can stop your cat from jumping up to the spot where my cats eat from.
A typical day
During the hours of 8 AM and 8 PM I am typically working or doing chores cleaning around the house but I make sure to walk a dog every 4 hours throughout the day if I am at work and it's been four hours my roommate goes and walks them and then after 8 PM I like to take dogs out to the dog park and let them run around for a little while while I meditate then go on a long walk so that they are tired enough to calm down for the night. With cats, I will play with them as they seem playful if I see a cat in a playful mood jumping around bouncing play fighting I will pick up some toys. I have really nice fishing rod chasing toys that my cats love a lot. I try to at least spend an hour or two every single day playing with cats. I already do this with my cats as well so yours would be no problem. It would just be joining the friend group.

- My only requirements for pets is they have to be friendly with other animals they have to be house trained. I will take last-minute scheduling, but if you show up with your dog or cat and I think they will not get along with any other animal that I have in the house. I will refuse you so I would much rather meet up and evaluate your dog first and get to know you as a person before I take care of your animal because animals are in a literal sense our children and they tend to take the behaviors of their owners. If they are not well mannered I'm not saying that you are a bad person. They may just be untrained, but I would like to see that you are not a bad person therefore, evaluate if your dog is trainable/trained/friendly.
