Dogs are people too.
Pet care experience
Also Serving: Saratoga, Los Gatos, Campbell, Cupertino Attn:*****(Due to gas prices being high an added extra cost for gas will be included in your booking) I adored animals since childhood and up through my adult life. The range of pets was: rabbits, rats, cats, dogs, ferrets, and birds. These animals were loved and cared for so much, it became my mission to be a vet. I was all set out to go to vet school from an early age. I then noticed when an animal was in pain or hurt it was hard for me to see them that way because I loved them so much. Vet school was taken off my youthful checklist. I then set out to become an animal trainer during the time I started to raise a family. I started small and volunteered for a year at Happy Hollow Zoo in San Jose. I learned zoo keeping which consisted of feeding, cleaning, and interacting with the animals. A menagerie of characters: Hippos, geese, ferrets, seals, bobcats, Baby elephant, pigmy goats, monkeys, birds and others. Each had their different personalities. Very fond memories. I always did and still do have a very calm demeanor around animals.

Patricia was a wonderful guest in our home! She took excellent care of our dog, sent us daily photos, and the house was clean when we returned. Thank you, Patricia!

Safety, trust & environment
I house sit in your home which provides the fur family an environment they are used to. It is less stressful for them than being in a kennel.
Information Patricia L. would like to know about your pet
Let me know of any special diets and medicines that need to be adhered to. The feeding times they are used to and whether dogs need separating while eating. Please have the information needed if an emergency occurs. If you are flying or visiting another state, leave me your itinerary just in case I need to find you in an emergency.
A typical day
They are provided with lots of attention and care during my stays such as play, lots of love, and attention and feeding needs. It's a delight to see the animals I care for happy when they see me on the next visit.
