My cheat code to play with your pet

Growing up dogs have been a huge part of my lifestyle and household. Having owned 8 furry friends in my lifetime, and 1 being a cat, it’s hard not to pick up on their language 😂. Especially with the energetic Pomeranians my mom’s side loved. Aside from this experience, family, friends, and neighbors have regularly relied on me to take care of their pets while they’ve been away. Approaching every dog I see in public has become a mission of mine and it makes my day interacting with high energy animals! Trust when I say the pleasure is mine!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a few packs of treats that I keep for dogs. The brands I’ve purchased include Old Mother Hubbard, WholeHearted, Zuke’s, Good Lovin’, etc. I usually mix it up because some dogs are surprisingly picky. Let me know of any medical problems or dietary needs. I’ve dealt with many unique medical concerns. Some examples include pets requiring doses of medicine each day, restrictions on physical activity, and ones with anxiety. Let me know any accommodations or special needs, I will follow! I also have a couple toys just in case.

Extremely polite, clean, and communitive. I will certainly use him again. Others have left my house dirty, or partially cleaned up after the dogs. He even went as far to fix something that he thought the dogs broke and let me know about it instead of just pretending it didn't happen. Excellent service, 10/10

Schedule

I currently work part time, Sunday-Wednesday. On Sundays I’m out of work at noon, and on the weekdays I work I’m out by 2pm. Thursday-Saturday my schedule is most flexible. I do like to stay busy so I prefer advance notice, earlier the better. Last second bookings are possible, just less guaranteed.

I am very familiar with taking care of dogs with specific medical needs so let me know any accommodations needed. I’ve dealt with dogs needing doses of medicine put into their food, ones who experience paranoia and anxiety, and even ones with physical activity restrictions due to heart conditions.
