Safety, trust & environment

I can check on food, water level, play with your pets, and give them treats. If the owners want me to clean cat litter, that can happen as well. For dog walks, I ALWAYS pick up their poops.

Information Staci K. would like to know about your pet

I feel more comfortable with small to medium breeds. It's just harder for me to walk larger breeds due to the fact I'm short and easily pulled along.

A typical day

I can take the dog on authorized walks that are safe for both me and the dog. I also am available to check on any other pets such as cats if needed as well.

Pet care experience

I always have grown up around cats and dogs ever since I was little, so I have experience with training, caring, and taking dogs on walks. I have even trained and walked friend's dogs while visiting them on my travels and helped a dog get less fearful of me while staying at a friend's in Mexico. I also am skilled in the ways of cats and cats instinctively knows that I'm a chill person that they feel comfortable being around with. I clean my cat's litter daily, taught cats to use the appropriate scratching places, played with cats, and even taught a few cats to be leash trained. I also have great communication skills and I'm always punctual. My phone is always on me at all times. I LOVE written instructions because they give me peace of mind ensuring that every details for your beloved pets are followed correctly. I prefer to walk dog individually because it’s easier for me. I rather walk dogs that are well trained and won’t suddenly take off to chase a deer. Since I’m small and lightweight, it’s harder for me to manage large dogs over 60 pounds unless very well trained and does not chase animals on our walks. Experienced in: - Giving cats insulin. - Giving medicines to both dogs and cats, whether it’s via a Churu tube or being covered with peanut butter. - Cleaning up pets’ messes. - Chickens (my family used to own chickens). - Loves reptiles.

Staci did well with a little dog that is not always easy to deal with on a dailey basis! We will use her again. Very communitive. Very nice person. Our little dog is 16 and very set in her spoiled ways

Staci took very good care of my two cats. We had her do two visits a day and she was very prompt and you could almost set your watch by her. She followed the feed and care instructions to the letter and even went above and beyond to make sure Oliver, who has CKD, was comfortable. I would recommend Staci if you're looking for a good reliable pet sitter.

Staci did great with our dogs and kept us promptly up to date with their well-being. She also kindly cleaned up after our little dog when she had a couple accidents; which is very appreciated. Would recommend her to anyone. 🙂
