Loving Yours as Much As Mine
Pet care experience
I have always loved animals (I've had fish, smaller animals, rabbits, and a dog)... they are not considered pets to me, but rather another family member and I love them just the same. One thing that I love to do if the owners wish is to send the owner a real-time photo(s) of their family members while they're in my care if the owner doesn't mind. It often relieves the anxiety and stress of "What if something's wrong?". It helps you feel connected to your family member, and you can rest easy knowing that he or she is doing just fine. I've had previous experience with combination house/dog sitting for many years, as well as daily drop-ins and walks only. This does not include my own family's baby, a full grown Chihuahua Dachshund, Ginger. I've done full time overnight sessions for over a period of a week, as well as one nighters. I do work part time (often 5 hours or less) on certain days of the week, so if I'm doing an overnight on a work day, I make sure they get a walk prior to my departure, and playtime/walk once I get back so they know they're loved. If your family member just needs a walk, or food, I do make sure to give them at least a bit of quality attention so they feel special. Dogs aren't just pets, so I don't treat them as pets. Your dog is as part of your family, so I'll treat them like mine.
Reviews
It is my pleasure to write a recommendation letter for Natalie Imazu who has provided dog sitting, dog walking and housesitting services for my family over the past four years. Natalie is dependable, responsible and trustworthy. I am never hesitant to go away for a few days or a few weeks with Natalie caring for our dogs and our home. Natalie loves animals and they respond well to her gentle approach.
About Natalie I.
Skills
Information Natalie I. would like to know about your pet
I would appreciate just a quick heads up if the dog is over-energetic or super-lethargic, has any allergies or needs special treatment. It's simply nice to know if I should be taking extra precautions or need to be aware of anything that is specific to your little family member.
A typical day
Generally, it is up for the owners to decide what will happen. If he or she would prefer a walk to be given, then we will walk. If your dog has toys and likes to play, then we'll play around. It's all about the dog's needs as well as the owners.
