***Dear clients! I now work a different job, please see new availability for drop-ins. MON-FRI: 7:45 am, afternoon varies from 4:00 - 6:00pm SAT: 8:00 - 9:30am SUN: 8:00 - 9:30am - House-sittings limited to weekdays only. Thank you for your understanding! - If you have CATS, please do not book a house-sitting with me as I am allergic! Quick drop-ins/walks are fine! - 100% of my clients receive photo and written updates! My profile score might not reflect this as some clients prefer to be texted over Rover messaging! I was a dog volunteer for 3 years at SD County Department of Animal Services, and I am trained to keep your dog safe, healthy, and happy! I have experience in the following: social anxiety, dog-reactive behavior, attention to senior needs, puppy handling, patience with scared/disabled dogs, matted fur and brushing, teeth-brushing, bathing (not professional), and more! I attend to each dog's individual needs and adjust care as seen fit. I can also walk multiple dogs, including multiple large dogs. I am capable of handling large, strong pullers, including Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, etc; however, not if they are overly intense pullers as I cannot safely control such dogs. I have my own lovely Maltipoo buddy who is introverted, anxious and often difficult whom I still love very much. I consider myself especially skilled in helping shy dogs, since I work with scared shelter dogs all the time. I have been dedicating my life to make as many dogs happy as I possibly can; I hope to spread some joy to yours too!
