I’ll Love Your Critters Like My Own

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m a film professional taking advantage of some time between shows to get do what I really love, hang out with dogs all day. Because this is not my full time job, I prefer not to take bookings too far in advance if the client is going to be out of town. However I am GREAT with last minute bookings and can almost always accommodate (if not working on set already), even if it’s the day of! I’ve owned working dogs my entire life (GSD, shelties, aussie’s) and am one of those people who have always been told “you’re really good with animals”. I currently have 2 mini Australian Shepherds who love to play frisbee, ball, hike, dog park, make friends and go for walks. I have a two story house with a half acre yard that is 95% fenced in (about 3.5’ tall), it’s open at the driveway. I have an electric fence in place at driveway opening and can put the shock collar on your dog, but only if we have that discussion first and you want that, I would never administer that kind of training without your request/consent. Happy/able/willing to take daily photos to send to you if your pup as we play! Also happy to help train puppies, give medications, etc. Must be cat friendly for drop off :) All of my fees will stay at a fixed rate (the rate first booked at) for reoccurring clients.

Sadie was great at checking in with our cat and always faithful to send plenty of pictures our way. Cinnamon definitely seemed to enjoy the attention and love! We would definitely have Sadie come back over and drop in for us over vacation again. Two thumbs up!

Sadie is great. I'm very particular about who I trust to take care of my two huskies, who are high energy and would escape in an instant if you let them. I feel comfortable with Sadie coming to let them out and I know that she will watch them closely and spend plenty of time with them. I appreciate her flexibility, particularly for last minute requests. She is super quick to respond to requests as well!

A typical day

I love walking, sometimes we walk my neighborhood, sometimes the track next to my house, or if your dog and you are OK with it I’m happy to drive them to a park or neighborhood w sidewalks. When walking dogs I have a strict policy of the dog stopping in front of and not crossing the street when they come to it until they’ve been told, “cross”. You’d be surprised how quick some dogs pick it up and start naturally stopping at the street! I love throwing in little training bits along the way! We also have an abundance of toys at the house, from puzzle toys for stimulation to various types of balls and frisbees for physical exhaustion. When staying at my home, if you’re dog is outside I am ALWAYS outside with him/her. I love taking my dogs hiking too, if that’s something you’d be interested in having me do with your dog let’s talk!
