Availability

I work as a teacher full time during the school year, so I have time after 4pm to care for your pets. However, during the summer I don't work full time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am free anytime during the week for house sitting, dog walking, or just dropping in to visit your pet.

Information Sally S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or any other services needed to care for them properly. Does your dog have any allergies or need to take any medication? Is it okay for your dog to eat treats not provided from you? Is your dog okay off leash in the yard? I’m glad to listen to any extra information about your dog, let me know everything I need to know to give your furry baby the best time.

A typical day

I will make sure your dog gets plenty of outdoor time and walks around the neighborhood. If comfortable take mini trips to parks or other dog friendly spots around the neighborhood. Let them explore their natural behaviors and play games like fetch or tug of war. Outside of outdoor time, I also love to lounge around with pets and provide them with company while they relax.

Lover of All Pets

Pet care experience

For the past 4 years, I have volunteered at an animal shelter where I worked with both dogs and cats. With dogs, I have experience with all ages, ranging from 5 week old puppies to senior dogs. I have walked and played with dogs who were the most outgoing and loving dogs, as well as the more fearful ones who needed a little extra attention before opening up to me. I have received training in understanding dog behaviors as well as how to interact with more stressed and fearful dogs, leaving me confident to care for all types of dogs. I also volunteered to take some dogs out of the shelter for one night and care for them at my apartment so they can destress out of their kennels, which gave me experience house sitting multiple types of dogs. With cats, often times at the shelter I would play with them in their cages, or I would take them out the cage and hold onto/pet them to help relieve their stress and get them accustomed to humans. At home I also have 2 senior pets I care for, a 12 year old Brittany dog and an 11 year old cat. They’re both incredibly sweet and remind me every day why I love caring for animals. Let me help take care of your furry family members—I’d love to meet them!
