Dog sitting professionally is the first job I have had in my life where I get to totally and completely be me. I didn’t realize this was going to become the case when I first started. I was looking for work that would support me in learning to love myself and it turned into something beyond what I imagined. I slowly and steadily uncovered the unique bond I share with dogs and why, for me, they are such a safe place to be myself. I lost my twin brother at eight weeks old; I was left vulnerable, stuck with unresolved identity trauma, who am I without my twin and seeing the world through the eyes of a baby, everything is energy. Infants communicate through energy and gestures and are unable to verbalize their thoughts, feelings, etc., what a pooch always does. The more I spent time with dogs, the more I was able to find my way back to myself, who I was before losing my twin. Eventually, the words came to me, being with dogs reminded me of what it was like to flow in love like I was able to do before losing my twin. This connection was familiar and in time accepted this was my dream for my life, to be able to experience this reciprocity again. And with dogs now, it has become second nature. So, for me, giving individualized care is a given and so is receiving their unique type of love. This exchange of energy makes everyone’s hearts happy! I am of most service house sitting with dogs while their human family is away. I enjoy putting in the time and effort to truly get to know each pooch fully and ensure their unique needs are met. Witnessing the dogs I look after happy with the care that I give them and their human family happy, too, is my pleasure! Plus, I enjoy sharing daily updates, especially through a picture that highlights what makes the dogs I stay with one-of-a-kind.
