I absolutely love getting to work with so many wonderful animals through pet sitting, and I always treat your pet exactly as you'd treat them! I offer various discounts depending on the length of your stay, the needs of your pet, and the time of the year. I also offer discounts for multiple dogs. These are reflected in your cost when sending an inquiry. I offer pick up and drop off of your pet, if desired. I have an extensive knowledge of how to care for all different kinds of dogs, including those with special needs. My care includes daily trips to the dog park (weather permitting and if they're able to go,) walks twice per day (or more if needed,) baths (if needed) and, of course, a lot of love! I will follow your expected care to the letter and be sure that your dog is comfortable and happy the entire time I am with them! When sending me an inquiry, please include the following so that I can accurately assess if I would be a good fit for your pets needs: - any special needs or care instructions - medication list, if any - how much time per day you would like me to spend with your dog/cat (I ask this because while I do work, I try to spend as much time as possible with your pet. I want to make sure that my availability during that time does fit what they're used to!) - are you wanting me to stay the night in your home? (applies to house sitting requests only) - anything you need done around your house while you're away (applies to house sitting only) - is your pet good with other animals? Leash reactive? Can they go to parks? - anything else you deem important! Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs since I was a child. As a dog sitter, I am able to experience so many different breeds and personalities. It's so much fun to play with and care for various breeds, and the feeling of knowing that I have made the dog as well as the owner comfortable and happy. I have dealt with dogs of all sizes and various breeds. I have cared for disabled/special needs dogs, including a dog with 3 legs, a dog who was paralyzed, and a dog who was blind AND paralyzed. Meet my pets I have 2 dogs- Zeus and Nikko. Zeus is a 3 legged Siberian Husky and Nikko is a dachshund/papillon mix. They have great temperaments and have been around a huge variety of dogs with how much dog sitting that I do. I also have cats who are extremely dog savvy, and a snake who is caged and inaccessible to dogs. About my yard I do not have a yard. We have a small area behind our townhouse unit that is connected to the other units "yards." I am very active though (you have to be with a husky!) and go on long walks, hikes and to a dog park as often as I can. My experience administering medication I have experience with administering medication (both pills and injections) to dogs, cats, and small animals and would be comfortable doing so for your pets. My work schedule is constantly changing, but I always have time to get in a ton of exercise, love and playtime with my animals and any animals in my care! I offer sitting in both my townhome as well as your home, because I understand that some pets can get homesick, and I want to make sure that they are as comfortable as possible! I am fun, active and trustworthy. I am a true dog lover and treat my own dogs as if they were my children. I treat any other dog in my care the same way! I have always had a passion for animals and had their best interests at heart. I am a frequent hiker and would love to bring your pet along (if they're able, of course.) My house is filled with a variety of toys, treats and other dog stuff! I would love the chance to make your dog(s) part of the family for the period that they stay with me! Please note that I do work, so a dog that requires 24 hour supervision wouldn't be a great match right now, with some exceptions (extended time off, holidays, etc.) My work schedule is generally very flexible! I live with my fiance who is also an animal lover, so there is no shortage of attention!
