A tired dog is a good dog!
Pet care experience
Hi there, I've been sitting for family and friends for a long time now and figured some other furry friends could use some company while their humans are away. Dogs and cats can have very different personalities, and I act accordingly for their needs and temperaments. If we need to go for a 5 mile run, so be it. If we just need to cuddle, I've got that down too. I have 3 shepherds of my own who are amazing but high energy, so I'm used to working those guys out. I also have grooming tools for any pup or cat that needs a good fresh coat and nails. I am also able to take your dog out to a 4 acre property that is fenced so they can be a free range dog for a bit
Reviews
Sydney was awesome. She was able to help me out extremely last minute, as in the evening before my trip. She even was able to come early the next morning to meet Skylar before coming to take care of her. She made me feel very comfortable with a stranger being in the home and the animals took to her immediately. Sydney's response time to annoying check-ins texts was almost immediate. She also gave me some good tips on managing the pup more on walks when she pulls. I will most definitely use her again if she is available for my next trip and highly recommend her with your fur babies--I promise they are in good hands.

Love the big dogs! If they have a temperament for being aggressive, I would ask you let me know your methods of dealing with their tendencies so I can keep good enforcement. I refuse to strike or kick. I do have training collars that have helped in the past. A beep is a warning, buzz/vibrate means they're walking on thin ice, and the static zap set at no more than 60% to reset behavior. Yummy treats for positive reinforcement of good behavior.
A typical day
We have a variety of tugs, balls, and other toys to play with. I love a good long walk or run even if it's dark, cold, or not so nice out. I do my best to get them cleaned up before coming back into the house as well. I've trained all 3 of my dogs to sit, stay/wait, down, up, off, paw (shake), come, and go get 'em (run free).
