I’ll treat your pet like it’s mine!

Pet care experience

I have many years of taking care of my own pets and raising four generations of Labrador retrievers. I am also a psychotherapist and social worker and I have had many clients with pets that I have worked with in terms of therapy, meditation, and yoga. The love and care that I will provide for your pet will mimic the way you love and care for your pets over time. I typically subscribe to the Brandon McMillan way of working with dogs and other pets. He is known as a pet behaviorist and I subscribe to the same way of his thinking. Like his system I also subscribe to the “Hybrid System” where I take all of my knowledge and experience and apply it to the domestic world of dogs.

Information Rita W. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any read preferences. I would like to know how the dog is with strangers, how long does the dog take typically to warm up to strangers, does the dog have a possibility of running off if he or she is not on a leash, what is the dog like around other dogs, people, children, and crowds. I would also like to know how the dog acts while riding in a car. I would also like to know any allergies, food preferences, and what the dogs daily routine consists of.

A typical day

In terms of where would I go on walks, I prefer parks, places that are near a beach or lakes, Their own backyard and places that you would prefer as well. I view this sort of activities that the dog would enjoy a collaborative effort between the owner and myself. In terms of fun activities I would make sure to bring enough toys and things for the dog to play with and I would also take the advice of the owner to understand what the dog enjoys the most..
