Pet care experience

I LIVE for pets of all kinds!

I can't remember a time at home when there weren't little paws scampering in the hall. I've cared for dogs,cats,and ferrets!! I'm willing to learn about other exotic pet care too!

Safety, trust & environment

I live by a lake with lots of great walking trails and fields and parks to play in. I have a small patio with some grass fenced in as well as a large front and side yard (unfenced).

We just moved into an apartment and Phoenix is a lifesaver. The walks any playtime have helped Charley adjust to her new home beautifully. Phoenix is highly recommended!

Phoenix did a wonderful job with my Cindy. I could tell by meeting her beforehand that she loved dogs and would take good care of her. Very pleased.

Phoenix was great with my giant baby girl. I appreciate feeling good about having a dog walker who gets my dog.

Phoenix was wonderful! One of my cats managed to get on top of the fridge and steal a white chocolate bar, and Phoenix even stayed a little later to monitor them and make sure they weren't sick. Thank you!

I would like to meet a pet before bringing it into my home to really get a feel for it's unique personality, habits, abilities/disabilities etc. My goal is to make them as comfortable as possible during their stay so maybe a little playdate with my kitty at my house with the owner present just to make sure things are a safe/good match! Safety and comfort are my number one priorities!!
