The "you" while you're away!
Pet care experience
I started out animal sitting and dog walking with my mum when I was 12. We would do neighbors dogs when they were on vacation, or walk them while they were at work. When I was 16, I was able to branch out on my own since I could drive. I still did jobs with my mom, but now I had my own, especially when my mom couldn't. I also boarded dogs in my home when I had dog friendly dogs. I treat every animal like my own. Your animals, while I am with them, become my world. Everything I do is to make them happy and healthy. From feeding to training to walking to loving, I will do whatever it takes. I have experience with a variety of breeds from small to large. I have taken vet assistant courses which have taught me canine first aid and CPR. I am currently enrolled in a Vet Tech program local to me. I have experience with everything except grooming, but I am more than willing to learn. I am comfortable with medication administration. I have taken client's animals to and from their vets. I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I have yet to meet an animal I haven't loved.

Mooon gets excited when he knows it's time for a walk with Mo! Thanks!
Mooon looks forward to his walks with Mo!
Thank you Mo! Addie seemed very contented when we returned home! She told us all about the nice time you two had😉
Extremely happy with the house and pet sitting. My babies were well taken care of and happy when I returned after a week. I have a very difficult yorkie and she truly could not have done anything better. My house was as I left it before I went on vacation when I returned. Can’t say enough about the professionalism and true love and care for my babies.

I care for them however you do. I don't like to change an animal's routine, and changing who they see and who is providing care is more than enough. I follow instructions, and if none are given for certain situations, I make every effort to contact you and follow what has worked for me in the past.
Information Mo K. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what their typical day looks like, their diet (if applicable), their favorite toys/treats, their quirks, any previous medical history, and any behaviors I should be aware of that are recently different or have been noted before.
A typical day
My personal favorite activity is snuggling. But I also love to stimulate the dog’s and cat’s playful sides via a classic game of fetch, or puzzle toys. I like to do whatever the pet likes to do, as I know they are all different and I want to do what makes them happy, and even introduce new things with the owner’s permission. With walking, I like the take their usual routes, but backwards, and maybe add a side street or two to change things up.

Mo can watch in your home
Availability
I'm currently working part time for a private ambulance, and my classes don't start for a few months so I am able to accommodate whatever will meet your needs. I do have some regular volunteering I do at ranches and shelters, but it is flexible so I can make room for you! I always factor in drive time in how I schedule.
