Pet care experience

OUT OF TOWN SEPTEMBER 24 to SEPTEMBER 28. Next schedule update for OCTOBER availability will be around Sept 9 ◡̈ I’m an RN with two dogs and a cat! I’d love to care for your babies on my off days! I am also AHA First Aid/CPR certified in cats and dogs ◡̈ If your dog is not cat friendly, and you need boarding/daycare, please let me know to see if we can work it out! My mom is in the front house and I am in the back house! So, KitKat has plenty of space to live freely while I care for your babies! If there is a day that is unavailable, reach out to me! If I am completely unavailable, it is a work day at the hospital. But if I am unavailable because I have an appointment or gathering, it just means we can possible work around it ! These are just the days I can be available all day for them and have no plans ! ◡̈

This was Ness’s second time watching our pup Pretzel, and she was just as amazing as the first! Pretzel absolutely adores her, and it’s such a comfort knowing she’s in loving, reliable hands. Ness is warm, communicative, and genuinely cares; can’t recommend her enough. We’ll definitely keep coming back!

Ness is amazing and so sweet. She treated our baby Blu as if she were her own.

Safety, trust & environment

I will treat them like my own. I deal with people for long hours, and being around my pets is the most therapeutic thing for me. So I figured I’d add some variety. There are therapy dogs where I work and the joy fur babies bring is magical. My backyard is pretty big in my opinion. It has a fence door to separate cement from grass, if needed! (E.g. If my mom or I need something from the garage and need to leave the back gate open to take something to the car? No worries! We have that second fence to keep the babies from running out to the front yard!) All fences and gates are very tall. I do offer an end of the day bath if you’d like! I’m NOT a dog groomer and have only washed my owns dogs and some of my friends dogs, so please be away that this will not be a professional job. The extra cost is just to help my with supply cost. I have shampoo, conditioner, brushes, dryer, ear wash, dental spray for tartar control (not teeth brushing), treats, towels. If your dog has any allergies, I’d suggest skipping the bath. I do also have some dog wipes that I can use to wipe down your babies after play! Feel free to ask any questions.

Information Ness W. would like to know about your pet

Anything and everything you’d love for me to know. If you are the type that has a binder for your pet with all info, go ahead and bring it! If you have a schedule for your pet? Let me know! If your pet is on meds, tell me how you administer the meds, so it’s a smooth time for every one involved. If they tend to be resistant to the meds, let me know your tips and tricks. I’m a nurse with pets, so I’m fairly okay with any meds as long as I know the deets. Also, need to know if your pets will be friendly with my pets. We love our babies and want them to be as safe with each other as possible. As mentioned, I do have an indoor cat that can gladly be placed over to the front house with my mom if your dog is not cat friendly.

A typical day

I have a backyard to play fetch or tug of war. I have two dogs that can play with your dogs (mine love to chase each other and sometimes wrestle). We can go for walks/runs. Open to your fun activities as well.

Availability

My schedule varies and I am currently applying for a new position. So, I will try my best to communicate what days I can be with your pet! Usually my availability is updated two weeks before the current availability ends! I usually work every third weekend, so if you have a weekend in mind, feel free to message me! If there’s time to put a request in, I will definitely do so! Holidays (day and Eve) I usually work except New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. I’ll gladly care for your babies then. The reason is not because I want to party, but because I want the last day of the year and first day of the year to be as stress free as possible. Hanging with pets over going to work sounds like a great new years celebration.
