Kind and loving long term petsitter
Pet care experience
I currently work at a vet clinic and before that worked as an assistant manager as an equine midwife for 8 years so I am very knowledgeable and capable with horses of any age. I have also had dogs and cats all my life so I know how to take care of them and their needs. The knowledge I gained from working with horses is very applicable to working with dogs and cats. I know when they are feeling ill, I know their body language when they are off, anxious or aggressive. I also am very responsible and capable administering medication. I have done house sitting for one couple 2 years in a row for a week where I took care of their cat as well as the horses. I’ve also done a long term sit recently in forest hill ( 2 months ) with 2 dogs. I have my own home that I rent so I am quite capable at problem solving if something comes up. When I travel I really enjoy staying at Airbnbs and can share the reviews that homeowners left for me.

I take care of your pet while staying in your home to allow your pets the least amount of anxiety and transition while you are away. Their home routines of feeding times and walks will be maintained and otherwise they will get love attention. I will also bring in your mail and maintain home cleanliness.
Information Shelby A. would like to know about your pet
I like to know how vocal a dog is. What their quirks are. Are they anxious? Do they get sick often or easily? How are they with other dogs, kids, people ?
A typical day
I like to take dogs to the dog parks to let them run around and play. I also enjoy walking them around the local neighbourhood with me .

Availability
I am working at a vet clinic so house sitting looks like taking care of the pets and walking them in the morning and then again when I get home in the evening where we can all hang out together. So the best situations are with pets that are already used to a routine like this. I do long term house sitting, 2 weeks minimum. I’ve done many sits on trusted house sitters with great reviews which are in my photos.
