Good with reactive dogs
Pet care experience
I have a high energy, dog and person-reactive, mini Australian shepherd myself, so I know what it’s like to miss your baby when you’re away! I’ve had my dog for 7 years now, and before her I always had dogs growing up. She is 25 lbs, but my parent’s German Shepherd is 100 lbs, so I’m comfortable with all size dogs. I’m very active and like to run, so walks and runs are no problem with me! My dog has behavioral issues, so I’m familiar with leash reactivity and anxiety. And if your dog is on medication, there’s no issue with me administering it - I currently give my dog anxiety medication. Weekends work best, but I can also care during the week if you’re ok with me coming before and after work - I can also drop in on my lunch break. I can gladly stay overnight, but again ideally on the weekends!
Reviews
Sommer handled Riley so well, and managed her visits in our home despite some chaos while we were away! Highly recommend.
Sommer was a fantastic sitter for our 2 dogs and 2 cats! She communicated very well, sent great pictures, and the animals were all happy and well-fed when we returned from our trip.
Sommer was great with Semi! She helped us in a pinch while we were in the middle of moving and having travel plans. She sent regular updates and pictures of Semi playing.
Second time having Sommer watch my little guy. Great communication and caretaking. Will use again for sure.

A typical day
Your dog will enjoy at least one long walk a day, lots of belly rubs, and I can play fetch for a solid hour to wear out your pup!
