Pet care experience
In 40 years I’ve had boarder collie mix, Aussies, Husky, Rottweiler mix rescues and bonded pairs- puppies to seniors- have had classes at Ohio All Breed training- build trust and if training is part of requested needed service I will follow through with what family is working on too! I only do positive reinforcement- verbal praise or ball play or treats- whatever works best for the client! I have and do puppy training, leash walking training- basic sit, stay, come commands - My last bonded pair of senior rescue dogs Hoss and Juliette my goal was to give them the best REST of their lives! A husky and Rott mix- we had a good 4 years- big dogs- lived until 12 and 13❤️❤️ I’m happy now to help others with their doggies and have fun and be fun for the pets- I do some traveling so currently I do not yet have a new dog- MOST of the recent dogs I walk are Yorkie, poodle, tea cup poodles, mini labradoodle puppies and Great Dane ! A big variety of Dogs super big to super small- all these customers were word of mouth!❤️ I walk the clients and have a fenced in yard and dog run- dogs are never outside alone - I’m out with them in the yard or dog run- Any food allergies or restrictions we follow the plan!

So patient and sweet with my shy and sensitive boy. Loved the pictures and updates!
I honestly don’t know where to start when it comes to Ms. Pat. She’s amazing on so many levels that I could actually write paragraphs about her. At this point she feels like family. To say I trust her with my babies and in my home is an understatement. She treats my dogs so good that when I come home after she’s been there I feel they have higher expectations from me 😂 She also makes sure the cats indoor and outdoor have food and water, and if the kitty’s make a mess with the water she cleans up. My little Rocky is unfortunately in a phase of marking and she also cleans up when/if he does that. She picks up my mail, and she’s even brought a piece of wood over to block the bottom of my fence where my pup tries to get under to the neighbors yard and play with a big dog that could probably swallow him in one bite. She’s purchased treats not only for the pups but left me a full bag of skittles because she saw o had a jar on my counter. She sends so many pics and her updates are so detailed. She’s even printed off some of the photos for me and that’s not all.. she purchased two gold frames to match my decor for me to put them in. She comes when she says she will and she spends quality time with them. At this point I feel like she’s grandmothered in .. literally she cares for my babies like she’s a proud aunt or G-ma. I would 10 out of 10 recommend (even though I really don’t want to share because if she’s ever not available I probably wouldn’t hire anyone else on Rover) I had a bad experience last year and almost wrote Rover off as a never again. Ms. Pat has changed that for us.
Patricia followed insrtuctions on everything i asked of her and it turned out great . I have never left my dog with anyone and was scared at first till i met Pat. She an Absolute Delight......... will definitely recommend her for future clients as myself on outgoings penny loved her and my friend and i also fell in love with her very nice and sweet person .
She is AMAZING! Excellent communication and extremely reliable, If you need a dog sitter Patricia goes above and beyond for your pet and he had a great time.

Whatever the family routine I try to follow as well! If night crating or hourly walk or special diet! Typically - out 1st thing, eat, out for a walk- some will nap after that- up from nap - out or walk, play ball or fetch- if in need of puppie training work on training in 5 minute increments- TRY to keep doggies busy and happy - If puppy needs house breaking - depending on size of pup - could do 1/2 hour potty breaks- then hour - case by case Again reward system - praise, pets , treats-

Information Patricia B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has Allergies, fears, separation anxiety, likes car rides, favorite toy or routine? Likes or dislikes other dogs or cats or kids? Loves to walk or not? Has a bedtime? All the details- any meds? I want to make sure they get what is needed and less stress for them-
A typical day
Up and out then feed- out after eat usually a walk. If doggo needs to rest - fine- if they want to play ball, fetch or cuddle ! Depending on the dog size and age out average every 2 hours- out after a nap - etc… if the pup needs training on commands we can practice in 10 minute sessions and rest- Always use positive reinforcement! Pets, praise and or treats!
