I'm an artist who loves animals!

Pet care experience

A client should choose me to take care of their dog because I have a whole lot of experience! That, and I’m extremely friendly and responsible with animal care. Since I was toddler, I've been around animals. I've had cats, dogs, and guinea pigs. I've had the great advantage in helping around a cousin's farm in Ireland. He had a young barn cat and a beautiful old shepherding dog, used for cattle. I walked a lot of dogs in NYC too. They can be a challenge to care for. We had fostered one puppy, Rocky, for three years. I trained him myself. I regularly animal-sat, boarded, walked, and cared for my friends' animals. I have also volunteered in the rehabilitation of feral/abused dogs and cats (in the Catskills).

Information Skye L. would like to know about your pet

We prefer taking care of smaller breeds. Is the dog OK with cats? We have 2. How often should I walk the dog? Any medications for the dog? What's the dog's favorite game to play?

A typical day

For the first walk, we would go around the neighbourhood to become familiar with it. If it is a regularly scheduled walk, we would start to explore the areas as time goes on! I like to go on adventures. Long walks through woods, lingering over interesting areas, and even jogging. I always feel safe with a dog by my side! We will definitely be looking at a lot of stuff, and sniffing around for all kinds of things-- everything except trouble! I can take cute pictures of your dog to send them to you. I can also run with your dog, because I know sometimes they love to frolic. I can bring them to doggy parks (with your permission). We'll pick flowers together and leave them on your counter when we get home. : -)
