Professional dog lover 🐶
Pet care experience
I have lots of experience dog walking, dog sitting overnight or regular check ins of any kind. I’ve been dog walking/sitting for 4 years now but have fostered dogs and cats for a couple of years before that. I love every dog/cat I take care of and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I love that every dog/cat I take care of has their own little quirks and I make sure each dog/cat is part of their own routine that they are used to and I believe that is super important for each dog or cat! I am currently a college student and live on campus but I’m not far away and can easily take care of your pets on breaks or weekends! I make sure that whatever you have in place for your dog/cat (crate schedule or separate parts of the house) is fully part of their routine while I’m watching them. If it is better to watch your pet at my house, I have two great and friendly dogs that love to play and a fenced in yard far away from the road.
Reviews
Serena was punctual the whole week she walked our 115 lb Giant Schnauzer. She was polite and took tremendous care of our bundle of energy. Highly recommend!!

I can crate, walk or anything that you need me to provide for your dog while you are away! I will make sure that even if you’re not home your animals feel as safe and comfortable as if you were with them.
Information Serena C. would like to know about your pet
I usually like to know what commands you use for your dogs because I don’t like to confuse them with different words for the same command. Of course any health issue and any treats to stay away from or any treats you use for special rewards. And of course any routine they have from the moment they wake up I like to keep the same routine for them.
A typical day
I try to let the dogs I watch have as much outside time as they can because I would hate for them to be cooped up in the house for too long. If we are inside there is lots of play time with any toy of their choice and and any games like “find” to get them thinking a little bit. For walking dogs I like to switch it up and not go the same way every time I walk them. I try to stay away from dog parks because you never know what dog will be there, so nature walks are best for me and the pup to go on if they need a change of scenery.
