Pet care experience

Steve Irwin is my hero

I will always make sure your pet has the best care possible. This means walking in the shade on sunny days. Making sure they have water during their walks. Watching them the entire time to ensure they don’t eat anything. Keeping them close so they don’t jump on strangers or other dogs. Giving them a good pet after their walk to get off any outside critters from their fur. I care for each pet tailored towards their own needs and don’t mind doing the extra work to make sure they’re comfortable and safe. I have had 3 dogs, a bunny for 3 months(we took care of her), and now a cat I took in from the street. I am a genuine and loving caregiver. I communicate with animals as much as possible giving them joy and comfort. I believe animals are very intelligent and communication is key in figuring out their likes and dislikes and thus giving them a life of joy.

Dog Walking • May 11, 2026

Nicholas is a very calm person, which is why I think my dog walked with him. I had been worried that my dog would pull him or react to other dogs (apparently she did), but nothing came of my worries. Nicholas is really good with dogs!

I am constantly active and on the go. This makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I am available in rain, hail, or sunshine. I work well on short notice and am able to pickup bookings any time. I dknt mind accepting far requests and in-fact enjoy the long travel.

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or favors. When watching your dog I will always treat them to my best quality of service. I ask for a description of your pets personality so I know how they normally act. If they take any medication. Are they leash trained? Do you give them specific commands ex. require them to sit at stop signs. Do they wear a jacket or shoes while on walk? Do they need exercise? Is interacting with people and dogs a normal occurrence for them? Do they have any digestive or health problems? Do they typically need water during their walk? I ask these questions to be sure they’re clean on don’t pick up any bad habits while being with me and to make sure they are safe.
