Pet care experience

Passionate pet care since birth!

I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I prioritize comfort, accommodations, and overall wellbeing/autonomy of the animal I am taking care of while being a reliable and calming pack leader. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled pups, as well as being a stepping stone for puppies as young as two months old! Old, adolescent or young adult, pups of all age or requests are no feat for me! I also work with cats, so your feline baby is no exception to my care!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Coming into a clients home, I like to look for the dogs favorite/chosen safe space and also where their eating place is! Those two places are a great area to gain a new dogs trust. I really enjoy feeding time when it comes to pet care. I am someone who LOVES to eat, so it really satisfying to see a pet enjoy their meal. For a more picky eater, I really enjoy finding a method to encourage a dog to eat whether it be adding pumpkin, bone broth, rim the bowl with peanut butter or yogurt, or even offering my presence so they feel safe -- every breathing creature deserves to start and end their day with a lovely meal. Aside from that, I do enjoy getting to know the dog on their own terms by letting them set the pace. I enjoy going outside and taking pets to areas where we can experience life together so they know they are not alone and are able be free and express themselves however they please! Along with enrichment and exercise services, I am also able to give basic grooming services (bath, nail trim, ear cleaning, breath refresh, anal gland expression, brush-out EXCLUDING de-matting) if you need your pup or feline to be cleaned!

I believe it is VERY imperative that I know about the health condition or certain accommodations. ALL Allergies, medication, aide and mobility tools should be some of the first things mentioned about a dog. I am CPR/first aid certified. I am able to administer many types of medication such as pills/chews, syringe (by mouth), ear wash/drops, inhaler, eye drops, injections including insulin, and powder medications. I am also able to find tips/tricks to get your dog or cat to take their meds. Please have peace of mind that I am able to work with many conditions and medications!
