I like dogs more than I like people

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm a proud dog Mom of Tucker, an 8 year old Australian Shepherd mix, who entered my life about 3 years ago. I also grew up with a dog and a cat and generally love animals of all shapes and sizes. I believe in keeping dogs active and maintaining a healthy diet (for both him and I), and personally take Tucker out for a good long walk every morning and NEVER feed him scraps or food from the table. Begging is also absolutely not allowed in my house, no matter how cute your face is, and I prefer to show my love through cuddles, walks/hikes, active attention and straight up love. I'm currently between jobs so I'm at home full time and have a very flexible schedule. It won't last forever (hopefully!), but for the time being, I'm likely able to meet most needs!

Nancy is absolutely awesome with dogs! You can tell she is an animal lover, and dogs seem inherently drawn to her as she is naturally poised and calm. I've had her care for my dog just for a day here-and-there, as well as for up to two weeks at a time while I've been gone on travel. She not only is a great source of company throughout the day by being home often, but also is able to ensure my dog gets frequent walk breaks. Also, on days where my dog was particularly energetic, Nancy has taken him out near Lake Austin to chase squirrels and burn off some steam! Every time I've retrieved my dog after staying with Nancy, he seems happy and relaxed. Similarly, every time I drop him off at Nancy's, he's excited to greet her; all signs of great human/dog interaction! In fact, on occasion he's been a little reluctant to leave her house because he's had a bit too much fun with Nancy and her dog Tucker! Nancy is very responsive, and will frequently send me pictures or videos of my dog to ensure I know all is well. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a great sitter without the exorbitant costs of traditional doggy day care!
