Oral medication administration

Safety, trust & environment

I believe it is important to create a trusting and interactive bond with my client’s pet in order for them to have the best experience! However, I am also able to put my foot down when needed. I am willing to accommodate strict instructions such as medication, grooming, furniture limits, schedules, commands, etc., and household care if needed. The thing I appreciate most is clear instructions to ensure your pet’s safety. That being said, for my own pets’ safety, I will not accept pet sitting in my own home.

Information Mercedes C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any schedules, commands, restrictions, medications, etc. to know beforehand! Also, please inform me of any sensitive spots on your animal that could trigger a reaction if touched. I have given oral medications before, and am willing to give any type of medication if your pet is cooperative with others!

A typical day

I enjoy spending pet’s energy on playing with toys, playing fetch, and walking. I am used to running long distance, so if your dog needs to expel some extra energy, I will absolutely run or jog with them! Even with cats, I will play with your pet all day until they are ready to snooze! My dog is currently a senior and our family has had 3 kittens, so I also know how to work with fragile animals and cater to their needs.

Pet care experience

I have taken care of my friend’s and family’s dogs for many years now, and I am looking forward to helping other owners! I have grown up with my current senior dog and have had two cats, including my current one. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society numerous times to walk dogs and play/socialize with the cats. When pet sitting, I make sure to consistently check in with the owner and take care of any accommodations needed. I could play with pets all day, and am willing to take your dog on a run or jog with a leash! I have also had experience with giving liquid medication to dogs and following strict schedules. I will treat your pet like my own!

Rose has been dogsitting for me for several years, and I cannot recommend her enough. She is incredibly reliable and always follows every instruction I leave for my two mini schnauzers. Toby and Dolly absolutely love when Rose comes over to play and watch them; their excitement whenever she arrives speaks volumes. I always have complete peace of mind when I’m away knowing that they are being so well taken care of. Rose truly goes above and beyond to play with them and give them plenty of love and attention. She is a wonderful, responsible caregiver who treats my pets like her own!
