answer whatever feels relevant for our time together - their behavior: what are their energy levels like? are they shy, protective, anxious, excitable? do they like other animals or children? do they have any history of aggression? are they possessive over food or toys? have they ever tried to run away or escape from your space, or handle on walks? training - how do you get them to come when you call? what kind of treats are good for your animal companion's? any dietary restrictions? how do you reward positive behavior? how do you handle problematic or harmful bahavior? is there anything i should keep an eye out for? when your dog is anxious, how do you soothe them? animal's daily routine: meal times ​what is the animal companion's behavior like on a walk? how do they travel in a car? are they fully house trained? how often do they need to go out? what does playtime look like? what are their favorite toys and games? are they on flea medication? are there any grooming needs or medical needs? what extra services will i be expected to provide? what training techniques do you use? is there anything the furry friend is scared of or reacts to? in home - what are the procedures for getting in/out of your home? do you have security system i should be aware of? where should I park? if sitting at your home - is there anything else in your home i need to be aware of, or tend to? do you want me to get mail or water plants? how many people will be living in the home while i care for your animals? how many pets are in the home? are your care instructions up to date? are they allowed on furniture - beds, couches? where do they usually sleep? are they okay being left alone, and for how long? i strive to cultivate a fun and safe environment that is as close to home routine as desired!

I'm happy to tailor your furry friend(s) and i's time together however we see best fit! we'll likely begin our day with pets and yard time while my partner or i prepare breakfast for the babies - kibble provided, instructions closely followed, and some homemade beef/pork toppers (if your fur baby's tummy isn't sensitive to this of course) if you OK it! for pooches, we'll either go to the Rio Grande triangle dog park, or on a long walk with our pooch(es) on a sandy path along the Beckman Lateral. for feline friends, we're happy to just lounge and give pets when we're around or play with our cat toys! any time we'll leave for pooch care, we'll leave some cat TV on and our window open so they may enjoy a variety of sounds /smells to keep them entertained and comforted in our absence. i may reach them a trick or two if they're into that, and offer mental and physical stimulation to get out all their energy. your fur baby will have access to our yard for a majority of the day to hang out, play, smell the air, etc. we will integrate redirection and reward-based training throughout our walks. i love cuddling and playing with, and petting doggos and cats, and offering warmth and affection in whatever way they accept best!
