Pet care experience
I have a 4 year old goldendoodle, Zuma. I've grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for cats, dogs and parakeets. I adore animals and have experience in care that includes feeding, grooming, medical after care, administering medications and of course play! I've had a few pregnant kittys and births over the years so I am comfortable caring and/or being around them. I would love to help care for your fur babies and lend a hand when you need it. I have a 14 year old who will likely want to tag along and play LOL From babysitting to a walk in the park, I'd be very happy to care for your pets.
About Nic A.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I start by asking detailed questions on your pet's personality and preferences in addition to your instructions and needs while I am caring for your pets. I am very respectful of an animals personal space and body language. I use positive reinforcement, encouragement and play to engage in play or to administer care. While in your home, I treat it with respect and care as my own and I'm very communicative as much or as little as you need.
Information Nic A. would like to know about your pet
Let me know of any special needs or strict preferences I should be aware of before our walk. It is also very helpful to know your pup's mood and demeanor for the day before our walk. I can work with dogs that are sensitive and/or have a tendency to nip as long as they are comfortable with a muzzle and can be around other dogs. I am okay with most breeds, however, large dogs that excessively pull or jumping may not be a good fit.
A typical day
A wagging tail is a happy dog. Is your dog a sniffer? The Great Pup Detective? The Frequent Tinkler or Happy Pooper? Every dog has their own personality and quirks. I like to observe their quirks and tailor walk time to work with them while making it efficient and stimulating.
