Pet care experience

Dogs have taught me a lot about life and how to be present. I love surrounding myself with positive people and experiences, so it is a no-brainer that I would want to be around dogs! They are truly a person’s best friend. I want to be a pet sitter because animals truly make me happy and I love helping others. I have owned dogs for the last 14 years. I started being a foster mom for a few rescues in the area, working mainly with Huskies. I have extensive experience with Huskies, Shepskys, Biloxi's and German Shepherds. As a child I volunteered at the SPCA cleaning out kennels and walking dogs. I now have two dogs of my own. I have often watched my friends and family dogs. Recently I helped birthed 8 puppies and that was pretty exciting! You can learn a lot from animals, and every time I am with them I learn something new! I would love to meet your pup and make a new friend. I truly believe our dogs teach us how to live and they are our best friends. I would love nothing more then to be able to watch you pup and maybe learn something new. Keep me in mind. Thank you so much and I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Nancy took care of my dog for a week while I went on vacation. She kept in touch daily and sent pictures of him at least every other day. She did a great job with him and I can tell that he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely use Nancy again in the future

We used Nancy to watch our dog and the house while going away for our anniversary. Our dog loves Nancy, and it seems as if they have fun together. Nancy watered plants, took in the newspaper, mail, and a package from Amazon. The house was clean when we got home, and dog poop was picked up. We definitely plan to use her again!

Nancy is dependable, friendly, and considerate. We felt comfortable and secure knowing that she was taking good care of our dogs and cats. We look forward to working with Nancy again!

Nancy is devoted to her dogs, always giving them lots of love and attention and making sure they have what they need. I've seen her meet other friends' dogs as well, and she is thoughtful and conscientious in how she approaches and interacts with them. Dogs have different personalities, and she is good at taking that into account in her interactions with different dogs. Highly recommend.

Information Nancy C. would like to know about your pet

I often will arrange a meet and greet at the client's home or the coffee shop or dog park. I want to see how the dog does around other dogs as well as people. I feel it is incredibly important to build a bond or rapport with the dog while learning about them. I like to learn all I can about your dog prior to our stay. Tell me about their social skills, routines, preferences, medical needs, training cues, et

A typical day

The specifics of what we do will depend on the your preferences. Normally, I wake up with my two dogs let them out to use the restroom, change their water, feed them. After they are done we go to the dog park for min a hour . We come home and they usually take a nap. During the day we play outside and later in the evening we go for a walk. I will feed the dogs. At bed time they follow me into the room and cuddle up with me. I enjoy all the different dog parks; Baldwin, Paso Nogal, Newhall, and Heather Farms. Depending on the dog, Pt. Isabel and Lake Chabot are another couple places I love to go.
