Ratings and reviews
Nel was wonderful to work with -- communicative, responsive, kind, and knowledgeable about dogs. Our pup had a great time with her!
Nel is wonderful, just what we're been looking for. Her communication is super and gave nothing but loving care to our dog Charlie.
My cat needed to take medication and to be monitored closely - she was very responsible and reliable while I was away. Thank you for your help!
I was looking for someone to house sit and take care of my dogs while my husband and I were away. I posted an ad on the UMass job site and she applied. She was responsible, trustworthy and very good with the animals. I will certainly hire her again.
She’s taught me everything I know about caring for animals. She’s read animal care and training books our entire lives and put that into practice. We’ve been rescuing animals since we were children. I’ve watched her rehabilitate many animals physically and, ones with emotional traumas or with training needs. She has an ever growing database of resources (professionals in the animal world) she has built relationships with as she continues to be involved with the care of animals. She’s diligent with time and gives her full attention to any animals she is looking after.
When Ng watched my corgi, she engaged in play with her and fed her on schedule. She also took her on walks and was very attentive to my dog's needs. My dog was very happy to be around her and enjoyed playing games that involved practice with sitting, lying down, rolling over, etc. With her own dog, I've seen Ng be very observant of her behavioral patterns such as if she was showing signs of anxiety or not feeling well, and made sure that both our dogs were comfortable.

Schedule
I'm available for overnight pet sitting during the weekdays and weekends. At this time, I am pretty flexible timewise for drop-in pet care and/or dog walking services.

Safety, trust & environment
Happy to take care of animals at the client's home and/or go for local walks. I do not pet sit at my home. I have a car and might be open to bringing dogs on hikes.

A typical day
I like to take the dogs on local neighborhood walks and go from there. If it is a good match, then I can take my dog and the dogs I am watching to a local non-busy walking area. Happy to play fetch and/or do mini training sessions when the weather does not support ideal walking conditions.
