Im the first person my friends (and teachers in school) call to pet/house sit. Growing up and spending a majority of my life on my grandparents farm, I have had extensive experience with all animals from a very young age and used to show dogs and cats (yes cats :) in 4-H for 10 years. I have also worked closely with canine assistant dogs and creating awareness in the community. Im flexible in scheduling and easy going/laid back in life. I have a 10 year old son, 5 year olde english bulldog and a cat too. I run my own photography business and love to include pets whereever I can. My day to day hours are flexible and I can make myself readily available when needed. I can also provide pet photography services :) so you know you will be getting the best photos and video from your pet while you are away! I can run or walk depending on your dogs preference. I have experience with Chihuahuas to Great Danes and even pet pigs!! I grew up with labs and golden retrievers and dozens of cats. My bulldog is named Merle. He loves life and new friends. His energy is high when meeting new dog friends but he plays great with everyone. So if your pet needs some additional socializing Merle can assist me. Merle has also been a great buffer and help with watching dogs with past abuse and trauma. He has made the dog feel more comfortable when the owner leaves and the ‘new lady’ is watching them. My son is also amazing with animals and has a calm and gentle spirit that animals surrender to for belly rubs. I overall enjoy the company of all furry family members and want to help/provide any additional love and care I can. Feel free to request a meet up prior to see if we are a good fit! Love meeting new faces regardless. I also water plants :) I like to do a meet up prior to watching and make sure we are aligned and a good fit for your pet. I have set studio hours that is the same as my sons school schedule. 9-3 typically. Weekends I leave open for my son and personal time. I currently live in an apt so I would be solely watching your pet in your home. During our meet and greet we can discuss your routine so that we keep the pet well adjusted.
