I am currently job-hunting and I aim to fill as much of my free hours with activity and interactions with our furry friends. Whether it's a walk, a quick drop-in play session, or even staying with your pet for a couple nights or more, I look forward to befriending one of the best members of our families: our pets.

Safety, trust & environment
When I visit or stay in a client's home, I make sure to see to the needs of the animal(s) and the client. If there are any things I need to make accommodations for, it can be discussed and arranged for on a case-by-case basis. My experience administering medication: Previously gave my dog Lily seizure medication morning and night, and I have orally administered liquid medication to my rabbit Pumpkin due to her heart conditions. Medication, with the exception of injection, is something I am comfortable with administering. If medication is something that your dog requires, I would like to hear about it during our Meet-and-Greet so I can know what habits I can look out for, such as spitting out pills.
Information Renee S. would like to know about your pet
I need to be informed of any unusual or potentially concerning temperament or personality quirks of your own animal for the sake of safety for your animal, myself, and my own animals if your pet will be staying at my home with my own pets. This is to ensure unnecessary check-ins and to help any services go as smoothly as possible.
A typical day
Time I'll spend with your dog: I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate for staying with your pet to minimize stress on your and your furry companion. Each animal has different needs and I will see to your pet to the best of my abilities. If there are any specific activities or requests for your fuzzy friend, let me know and we can work out the details! Extra house-sitting services: I am open to taking on other minor house-keeping tasks pertaining to your pet. Simply let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly for time spent with your fluffy family member and the other companions I may be attending to on the day(s) of your booking.

Pet care experience
I have been around all sorts of animals ever since childhood. I was the primary trainer of my Husky-mix, Daisy. I have administered both pills and liquid oral medication to my previous dog, Lily, as well as rabbits. I am adaptable to the needs of a wide range of animals from shy cats to intelligent and active dogs who need both physical and mental stimulation. If your furry family member has any particular needs, let me know and I will do my best to accommodate them as I am able! I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon!

Reviews
This was our second time booking with Renee. She took great care of Bert while my boyfriend and I were out of town for a wedding. She clearly loves dogs and treats Bert so well. He was very happy to see her again. Not only did she take good care of Bert she also tidied up the house before departing.
Renee is thoughtful and thorough and easy to have stay in our home to watch our old nervous pittie. He has a high sense of stranger danger and she has been so patient and careful with him every time we use her. Highly recommend her.
Renee took great care of Bert while we were out of town. She was so sweet to our nervous guy. Bert really seemed to like Renee and settle in with her quickly. Renee provided lots of updates and really made us feel comfortable while we were away.
Renee took such wonderful care of our dog Josie during a 2-week house sitting stay. Josie can be a little shy and anxious at first, but she really took to Renee and ended up being super affectionate, which made us so happy to see. Renee was incredibly patient and attentive, and really took the time to understand Josie and what makes her comfortable. She kept us updated consistently with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond in so many ways, from taking Josie on long walks to even celebrating her birthday/gotcha day with a dog-friendly cake, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was clear Josie was not only well cared for, but genuinely loved while we were gone. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup and a well cared for home. We would absolutely book Renee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like their own.
