Safety, trust & environment

I make it a priority to meet owners with their pets to establish rapport with the human and 4 legged being. I want to understand what motivates the dog and what the dog is sensitive to. I care for dogs by giving them walks, play, touch, positive regard and correction. I am patient and firm. I meet dogs where they are at emotionally, spiritually, and physically for them to do what I am asking. If I can't meet the pet owner, then leaving something like a "sub plan" for me to orient myself to your home, pet, and leash would be great. I skilled at making good first impressions, learning my way throughout a home, and messaging priority questions.

Information Rebecca C. would like to know about your pet

So that way you, your dog, and I all have a rewarding encounter, let me know if your dog needs care/drop ins/walks in a specific way, medication care, behavioral support and buffers, or etc.

A typical day

Walking, toy hide and seek, playing ball, and building skills to earn to earn a reward. What fun activities does your dog like to do? Tell me and I'm happy to accommodate.

Pet care experience

I grew up with few family dogs and cared for the dogs of my neighbors and friends as an adult. My presence draws animals of all ages and backgrounds to me and I love seeing the world from the perspective of a dog. During the pandemic I trained my neighbor dog and she still counts on me for discipline and affection. You and your dog can rely on me to provide care that ensures their well being and safety.

My pup Lulu came down with a stomach issue the day before we left for our trip. Rebecca worked with me to come up with a plan for her care and monitoring, adjusting her diet as Lulu recovered and sending me regular updates on Lulu's progress. Being 3000 miles away, it was such a relief to know that Lulu was in good hands and that Rebecca was prepared for the worst case scenarios. Thanks to Rebecca, I came home to a happy and healthy pup!

Rebecca was proactive in communication and sent lots of update and pictures to assure that Lulu was content and cared for. Great experience all around!

Rebecca was a great dogsitter for us while we traveled for the holidays. She hit it off with our dogs and gave us regular updates and pictures, and she was communicative and responsible. The dogs were very happy on our return. Thanks Rebecca! Would definitely recommend.
