I love dogs and dogs love me
Pet care experience
I promise to treat your dog as if they were my own and shower them with love. I grew up with dogs my whole life. I love dogs large and small. My family started to rescue German Shepherds when I was about 12. With these shepherds I went to various training classes and learned quite a lot about dog behavior. Some of the dogs that we rescued had some quirks that would be unappealing to some people. However, with love, training and understanding these dogs fit into our family and I wouldn't want to trade any one of them for the world. I have been dog sitting for friends and family for many years and it is something that I enjoy. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I also grew up next to a horse farm and spent all of my free time there. On the farm we had several dogs, cats, chickens and horses of course. I have spent a lot of time around animals of all sizes, temperaments and past histories. I understand that animals have unique personalities and needs and as a sitter I will work with you to fulfill the needs of your individual pet. I currently do not have a dog but I do have a cat and he is wonderful. I know that your dog is more than just a pet and I take that responsibility seriously. I follow instructions well and if your dog has any special needs I will make sure that they are met. I am happy to take your dog to the park, on a run, a slow walk or whatever style exercise best suites them. I love spending time with animals and I can't wait to meet your four legged friends.
Reviews
Phoebe was professional and very friendly during our introductory meeting and meet & greet with my rambunctious 95# Akita. I booked Phoebe for once a week running for three consecutive weeks. She arrived on time and was attentive to my dog becoming too tired and/or too hot (he has a double coat) as he is not accustomed to running. So half the run is actually a fast paced walk. My dog's strong, and can pull, but Phoebe is able to keep him in check and off our busy commuter traffic street enroute to and from the park they run to then walk through.
In the past when in need Phoebe has cared for my dog multiple times. I honestly think she has taken better care of my little baby better then I have. My dog always comes back happy and I have never had a single problem with Phoebes care. Like my puppy Phoebe is a kind hearted person who is absolutely in love with dogs. I believe she would make a perfect Rover employee.
