I have experience in wildlife conservation, environmental chemistry, horse stables, and while I was in college I pet sat through a different app and also worked as a veterinary assistant. I’ve been pet sitting professionally since 2009. My 18-year-old cat and 13-year-old husky recently passed away so I need all the cuddles I can get. I am comfortable with high energy pets, baby pets, and grumpy seniors. My pets are extremely friendly, Healthy, and socialized. I am happy to take another dog adventuring with us, help with potty training, give meds or treatments, nail trimming, and baths as needed. Cats, birbs, small farm animals (especially chickens) and exotic plants are welcome too. I collect rare plants and have over 200 myself so please let me know if that is an add on you could use. I do not charge extra for puppies as they pay the difference in cuteness! I work from home so my schedule is completely open. I also have no children and a home with a large yard and metal cord dog trolley. Beaches in walking distance. I am happy to follow all training rules for your pet but my home is one where cuddles on the furniture happen regularly if that is something you would like. Don’t know why but most guests sleep in the bed with me even if they don’t at their own homes. If a dog is my guest for more than half the following day after boarding I do charge for that day. Rover suggested this and I feel that is fair unless we have agreed otherwise. Looking to add 2-3 regular clients since having moved. I’m an established sitter with good clients and like to have availability for them so keeping our circle small. *Flexible with scheduling and rescheduling since circle is small and close* PS Deaf and blind dogs do well in my home. I spend an hour in the mornings and evenings feeding and straightening up after my pets with a good mid day drive or walking adventure for the dog(s). I have a nice deck partially enclosed with lots of plants, toys, and things to lay on. If it’s nice out I keep the door open and they go in and out as they please. No access to ground from deck so its catio vibes and safe. My home is aesthetic and animal centric with great care being placed on managing allergens. My pets totally run the show and are sassy. Still well behaved and listen to commands. You can talk to my cat like a person. I mean he’s gonna talk to you regardless. Safety, timely care, and good vibes are my top priorities when caring for animals in any setting. Meet & greets are required and must confirm pet is a good fit for us.
