Compassionate Sitting & Training

Pet care experience

*Athletic Dog Walks (40/hour) *Dog Training (40/hour) *Kitty Sitting (20/drop-in) *House Sitting & Garden Care *All Types & Breeds of Animal Lover ^_^ *I also have some availability in Flagstaff & Williams, AZ! Hi there! I’ve had pets my whole life- from bunnies and fish as a little girl, to kittens and cats (even a hermit crab rescue!), to now knowing the joy of having a big, well-trained dog in the home (we have a 70-lb. German Shepherd who is one of the pack with her three human kids and cat!). A formative experience when I first started working with animals was the year I volunteered as much time as I could at the county pound. I spent dozens of hours learning about animal behavior, adoption pairing/ breed characteristics, light veterinary care like administering medication or vaccines; and simply socialized all the good animals from kittens and cats to puppies and dogs. I learned then that all dogs- no matter the breed!- can be good dogs. And that all animals have such special personalities. I spent a couple of seasons independently pet sitting neighbor pets before I went to college and became a full-time mom (of three awesome kids!), and now that my youngest is getting bigger, I have time to care for animals again. I just love spending time with all types of animals, whether pet sitting or doing more targeted training work. If you choose me to watch your beloved furry, feathered, or scaly babies; I can assure you that I’ll care for them with lots of love, consideration and mindfulness. Plus snuggles and rubbings balanced with trying to keep everyone well-behaved with lots of positive reinforcement :) I walk dogs rain or shine! Non-smoker. Get in touch now to schedule a meet-and-greet to see if we’re a good match.

Perfect in every way. My 6 month old German Shepherd had developed anxiety while staying at a busy RV park. She started pulling me when walking near kids or other dogs. I looked on Rover and found Nancy. She came on time and once Kaiya realized she was no threat, Nancy won her respect. We walked together a short way and I could tell, Nancy was a very competent quality Dog Person. I went back and Nancy took Kaiya near humans and other animals, walked on a nice river path then returned. With a happy tired puppy! If I could give Nancy more than 5 stars, I would. I would, and will trust her 100% to care for Kayia while I have knee replacements.

I have known Nancy for several years, and she is one of the most caring and compassionate people I know. Moments spent with her three children and gang of beloved pets are filled with kindness and love. She cares for her animals like they truly are a part of her family, and I would trust her in a heartbeat to care for and watch over my animals. She is a responsible householder and would provide love for your animals like they were her own. I highly recommend Nancy for whatever pet care needs you have!

Anything that you feel is important; you know your baby best :) Whether they need medication, extra attention, or special instruction. I have open ears!

A typical day

The first thing I like to do is find a great route for dogs to get exercise and I can be quite industrious at finding good jogging trails so they come home tired :) I also incorporate breed-specific enrichment activities and try to build off the goals you have for your pet.
