I'll be your pets new BFF together

Pet care experience

Hi pet parents, I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. Besides watching and taking care of our own dogs, I worked in pet wellness while going to college for 4 years, so I have experience with many different types of collars, leads, and harnesses. I was able to do walking and dog/house sitting jobs along the way. Last, have experience with puppies, dogs who take medications, anxious pets, and seniors.

Shayna took great care of our pups when we went out of town. She's very attentive to their needs and she is just the sweetest!

Safety, trust & environment

In my client's home I make it as comfortable as possible for them when the owners are gone. I try to show them I'm not a threat with a treat or a toy that they can have. Furthermore, I like to use Feliway calming spray since it works by releasing natural perenones that makes dogs and cats feel at ease. Most importantly, I give tons of pets and belly rubs! Dogs and cats are welcome to be on my furniture and bed as well if that's what they prefer. For dogs, when on walks, I use a big flashlight at night, and in the daytime I try to avoid crossing paths with other dogs that are out. I and I always send photos and videos throughout stays with to keep you updated on what we end up doing.

Information Shayna L. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know the breed, age and their temperament. Any precautions I need to take before going on a walk. How they prefer to sleep. Any medical issues I should know about and if they have any diet restrictions. Basically I want to know anything and everything you think is important for the best care possible.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog mentality and physically. So we would walk around the lake that is around my apartment complex, smell all of the grass and new flowers, and I live right across from a nature preserve so walking around that would be very fun for the both of us. Lot of nature to look at, ducks, birds and when it gets dark out or the weather isn't so nice we would most likely end up playing with some puzzle toys, put on some dog friendly TV, and just cuddle up on my couch or my bed.

I I recently left my full-time job, so I am looking for as many bookings and walks and drop-ins as I can get. I'm open to house sitting and also doing boarding of smaller dogs or cats for a short period of time.
