Pet care experience

DocDolittle.Rover

I am an experienced dog trainer with extensive experience in behavior modification and basic to advance skills. I have extensive experience in medical treatments for clients’ pets. I have deaf dogs, they have been trained to become service dogs, and they completed their obedience training through me. They are mixed with blue Heeler and red Catahoula cur which makes them a double Merle. They are happy, healthy, and vibrant dogs. One is on her way to becoming a performer and obsessed with her flying disc, while the other one loves to be lazy all day. I have grown up with domestic, farm, and exotic pets. I understand their behavior and needs. Any pets are inclusive and welcome 100% of the time. I also have a wonderful cat. He is almost ten-years old, rescued from Hurricane Sandy ten years ago, and such a snuggle-bug! I have a large, fenced yard with several trees where the dogs can run and roam freely. We have outdoor toys, including a mini pool when the weather is warm. Feel free to ask further questions. Frances is my partner, “your backbone” on rover and has gone through the background check as well. We are a team. We ensure your pet(s) get the care and accommodation(s) and it is fabulous to have two people caring for pets at a place. Feel Free to check out the Instagram page: DocDolittle.Rover PS I am an expert at pet treat baking and pet photography! There are two people caring for the pets at a house and that is a bonus. You have the Doc Doolittle and the backbone caretakers! The earliest drop off/ pick up time is at 6:00 am and ends at 9 pm. Late service is exceptional such as animal courier transporting pets from state to state. I have a large, fenced yard with grass and several trees. There are outdoor toys and mini pool when the warm weather is present. An area for dogs to dig up! Also, plenty of squirrels to look at and to chase. There are few large water dishes outside for fresh water. *Require to have proof of vaccinations* Bonus if they’re on flea prevention, but not a requirement. We ensure to have safe and healthy environment.

M.K was able to take our dog last minute, after our pet-sitter canceled. She sent regular updates with pictures and our dog had a great time running around and playing with the other pups there.

M.K. was easy to coordinate with. Our dogs seemed happy and healthy when we picked them up. Would recommend and would use again.

MK took great care of our dog Chili for 10 days! She usually watches multiple dogs at once so Chili was never bored. We’ll be back for sure!
