Information Serafima K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of and accommodate for. My goal is to be compassionate and prepared for your pet's visit.

A typical day

The dog pack and I love to start our day with an hour walk either to Pioneer Park or the Tribute trail which are both in walking distance from my house. My dogs are trained to walk on and off leash. Walks will be adapted for the dogs which are joining the pack. At the house, we've got different types of toys for all preferences of fetch and tug. On the weekends we like to go on longer adventures out into our beautiful woods and creeks, along Harmony Trail or even up to Donner Pass and the Pacific Crest Trail.

Pet care experience

Offering a safe home away from home, compassionate care, and peace of mind for pet owners is something that all pet sitters should be offering. I go far beyond this standard providing both care and training. Since I was a child, dogs and cats have gravitated toward me and I've always enjoyed their companionship; you can almost always find me with at least one dogs around. It's never been an unruly mass of teeth and paws though; I've always taken the time to teach my furry friends to walk on leash, to have immediate recall, to be polite in kitchen, and to use their voices kindly. I do the same with every animal that I am given care of, gently coaching them to be civil, furry companions while showering them with love.

Serafima has a way with dogs, and has watched my dog Walt on several occasion's. Walt is a rescue and has extremely bad separation anxiety. Initially, Serafima and her dog stayed in my home while I was away to help Walt feel more at ease on my first time away from him. Walt was well cared for this time, and every other time Serafima has watched him. Walt grew up in isolation and was never really socialized. So, to see his excitement to see Serafima and her dog when we ran into them in town was a testament to the level of care Serafima provides. I'd highly recommend Serafima to anyone looking for someone to watch their best friend!

Serafima has been my dog walker and Dog Sitter since early 2023. I met Her along my normal dog hike, she is so kind and friendly, very smiley, exuding a joyful, positive attitude and the dogs absolutely loved her! My German Shepherd is very choosy and trusts no one, but immediately bonded to Serafima and her dog Senia. Since then I have not hesitated to give her the key to my house and she drops in as I need her, even sometimes last minute when I can't get back to get the two dogs out for their daily romp. In addition to walking, Serafima has cared for my dogs in my home overnight, multiple nights and I am very pleased with her services.. I've also had Serafima keep the dogs at her facility overnight, with great confidence that she cares for them like her own. She also takes them in her dog van Out onto the trails, with many other dogs and they always come back happy, tired and more well behaved than when they left. I cannot recommend her highly enough and would provide more detail to you personally if you have any questions! Just ask her for my phone number, I've given her permission to share it with you. She's that good!
