Mission Impawsible dog / pet caregi

Pet care experience

As a young girl I had the best parents who allowed our family of 5 to have 3 awesome Pekinese. Muffin, Coco, and Mervin. My filipino family were strict at first only allowing them as outdoor pets, but soon the little fluff balls became senior citizens and upgraded into indoors pets. Since then my love for animals continued after I moved out of the family home. My journey with Petco as a dog bather and day camp counselor for the doggie day camp was the best college job a girl could ask for. Countless hours in rooms filled with small and large dogs filled my heart. This was my biggest exposure to the vast variety of breeds from the various Saratoga pet owners. I have spent countless days and nights watching over family pets, fellow friends, and co-workers dogs. Walking, bathing, feeding, playing, house-sitting and boarding. "But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world." - Le petit prince If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Sharlyn did a great job of taking care of our pets while we were away on vacation.

Sharlyn was incredible. Leaving state and using a new person to watch your fur babies and your home is always a little stressful but Sharlyn made it incredibly easy and allowed us to have peace of mind while we were away. One of our dogs is a little timid with new people but she came over a few days before we left to get better acquainted with him and he warmed up to her pretty quickly. Sharlyn was very responsive while we were away and before we left which helped us feel even more at ease. I would definitely recommend her (unless you are traveling when we are again then she will be booked!:)

Information Sharlyn B. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know when and where the dog eats, how the food is prepared. What treats to give your dog and how to properly reward the dog. Allergies, local vet, vaccinations up to date. Unusual behaviors, bathroom habits. No particular breed preference.

A typical day

I like to walk around parks or around the local area. If your dog has a great track record, I would consider taking your dog to a local dog park nearby.

I work Monday-Friday as a nurse. I only work 8 hours shifts so potty breaks before I leave and when I return home. I usually work 730-4pm. I also have roommates who love dogs and might be available for a potty break during the day but not always a possibility.
