Pet care experience

Cuddling and belly rubbing expert

I worked and volunteered with dogs since I was 16 so I'm familiar with most breeds and an expert playmate, belly rubber and cuddler. Since then, I've been volunteering at the shelter and fostered a number of dogs and cats. I work remote from my apartment so I’ll be with your baby full time which gives me a lot of flexibility with schedules. Your pooch will stay inside the apartment and uncaged at all times unless specifically instructions (and a cage) are provided. I will walk, play, feed and cuddle your furry baby. If medications are needed I can also provide them. Baths are available for an additional fee, same as drop off and pick up services

Schirka was very accommodating in taking Biscuit on short notice during the holidays. She was communicative, kind, and even met with me and Biscuit before my handing Biscuit off to her. I felt trust that she would take care of Biscuit and there would be no problems! Thank you Schirka!

Schirka was top notch. I was immediately put at rest after meeting her And had no problem leaving my Teddy with her for two weeks. She was very loving and I know my dog was very happy from the picture she sent me. I will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone.
