I'm an experienced animal caretaker who would love to care for your animals while you're away. I've got a loveable rescue Lab of my own and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. Have other animals in the house? I have also cared for cats, rabbits, horses, chickens, donkeys, etc. I can administer medicines, take your dog to her favorite park and play with his favorite toys. I'll take great care of your animals so they'll be happy when you get home! For a fee, I'm also available for HOUSE CLEANING if you're away and would like to come back to a sparkling clean home! Please note that I need to add a $7/fee/day for dog care between 5-10 miles away and $10/day for care between 11-20 miles away. Rover.com doesn't include a space for this, so I'm putting it out here. It sounds like a lot, but for a dog living 5 miles away, I could drive 48 miles a day back and forth caring for him. These fees can be negotiated for overnights! I have owned multiple dogs in my life and have cared for many dogs over the years. I have also worked in farm and educational settings with animals and am familiar with a broad range of animal behavior and welfare. I'd like to treat your dog the way I'd want my own to be treated! For those on the large animal side, I'm certified as an equine instructor in the state of Massachusetts. For those with smaller animals, my pup gives me two paws up! Why I love dog sitting I grew up with dogs, mainly German Shepherds and Labs. I'm a big dog lover. I have a rescued Lab and my family has two Labs! My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication.
