Safety, trust & environment

I was a nanny for 5 children and 2 dogs for 5 years, then adopted my parents silver lab and Shepard mix for another 5 years. On top of that I've been sitting dogs while people travel off Hawaii island for 7 years now, giving me 17 years combined of loving and caring for puppies and adult dogs as well as kitties and Cats! I can train, and reinforce good behavior, while help to curb bad habits, always doing so with love and compassion. I take my job of caring for someone's animal like they were family and I was a nanny once again.

Information Spencer W. would like to know about your pet

Habbits of animals in the home you want reinforced along with bad habbits that you would like to break them out of! Strick diets, walk times, medications and any details that is important to you, is extremely important to me.

A typical day

I love to go on a jog, having a dog for a calm walk and brisk run is always so appreciate when staying active. Taking pride in my communication with pet owners I always make sure to take and send pics to their parents along with updates or questions so I'm always sure to treat and care for your pet the way you would when home!

Everything seemed fine until I got home. A bunch of my expensive liquor was used up. Without permission. Not happy at all.

Spencer took great care of our pups! He’s got great warm energy that put both of our dogs at ease right away and seemed happy and relaxed when we got back. He asked great questions and was attentive to all the nuances between the dogs/for our senior dog. He was communicative and sent us photos which is always nice when we are away. He took good care of the house, too!

Spencer was awesome and consistently communicated throughout our whole trip. He was always upbeat and fun and kept us reassured so we could enjoy our time away fully. Would highly recomend.

Spencer and his partner Ruby did an amazing job with our corgi Theo! If we could give them 10 stars out of 5 for the care they gave our doggo, we would! They are very friendly and enthusiastic, Theo loved them immediately. They kept Theo safe and happy, we even had neighbors tell us how well cared for our boy was while we were on our trip. We got daily updates and pictures, which we super appreciated.
