Pet care experience

Experienced animal lover🐶🐱🐴🐰

I have been around animals since I was born. Throughout my life I have been lucky enough to gain invaluable knowledge & experience with many different breeds of dogs (from chihuahuas to working dogs to Great Danes) cats, horses, rodents, bunnies, chickens, goats - you name it! I have a horse of my own, but since I can’t afford another pet of my own due to school, I would really love to help take care of some other people’s pets. I put animal wellbeing above all and can’t wait to make new furry friends while helping out their owners!

Safety, trust & environment

For walks and drop ins, my motto is to leave the area the same or better than I found it. I will always try my best to not disturb anything in or around your home. I also pride myself on having great communication skills and I am never afraid to reach out and ask questions if something is unclear to me. While my home is unavailable for dog sitting, I was a nanny during my collegiate summers and I am well versed in how to best operate within others spaces. I have previously provided pet care in many others houses before and have had positive reviews. I am available for cat sitting! I do ask that you provide your cats with the toys, food, and litter they love the most to make them the most comfortable:)

First time meeting Serenity and Tater and they appeared, from photos, comfortable and happy with Samantha. Being gone for two weeks, the photos of the various activities with my pups was very nice to have. Thank you for taking care of our pups!

Schedule

I’m currently a part time student so I have lots of time to help out! Due to travel times in between places I do please ask for a little bit of flexibility on timing (15-30 minutes or so). A quick note for weather - as the muddy season is upon us please provide a towel so I can dry your dogs’ paws🐾 I will walk rain or shine, but my personal policy is that we will have to cancel/reschedule a walk if it is thunderstorming or if there’s a tornado warning. However, I would be more than happy to switch to a drop in visit:)

Be sure to let me know any allergies, quirks, or unique things your dog requires or prefers! For example: having a release word to eat, having a special spot or toy, any behavioral quirks, sensitivity to sounds etc.
