I am a retired Pastor & Network Manager for a school district and have lived in the Fort Collins area for almost 5 years. My heart is tender for all animals & I will treat your pet as if it were my own. He or she will get plenty of love, affection and attention. I am able to administer oral medications and would be willing to transport your family member to Vet appointments if necessary. My Old Man was a 15 1/2 year old Pomeranian with a heart condition, but his little heart finally gave out and he passed away in April of this year. We also have a beautiful Siamese cat and I am willing to care for them also. IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, I will transport your pet to your Vet or to the CSU Vet Teaching Hospital Emergency Department which is about 12 blocks away! Except for special circumstances, If Day Care is longer than 8 hrs, I charge an additional $5.00 per hour per dog, up to 12 hours. After 12 hours, the rate is $10.00 per hour per dog. I would also ask that you not pit me against other sitters when trying to set up a booking. In other words I ask that you not put out a booking to me and several other sitters at the same time just to go with whomever responds first. I don't think that's fair to all the sitters being considered and I'm not interested in getting a booking that way! I carefully consider all bookings before I make them. Please consider my qualities and offer me the booking if you think I am a good fit. If not, then please offer it to someone else! Thank you!
