Pet care experience
I am here to take care of your pet when you can't. My services include dog training, daily walks, feeding, playing with your pet, grooming, administering medication, and clean-up. You can rely on me whether you’re away for a few hours or days at a time. And I am just a bark, meow, or chirp away! I am qualified to care for and train most types of pets, and have excellent training. I have been around many types of animals my whole life and grew up with canines, felines, birds, amphibians, many reptiles, and both fresh and salt water fish. I have over 25 combined years of experience raising, training, and socializing dogs and puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind, Inc; Petco, Pets Unlimited and privately. I have been walking, pet sitting, and training dogs for myself, family, friends and neighbors for about 25 yrs. I have loved all animals since I was a little girl. I have owned and raised many animals of my own. When I was 12 years old, I started raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind. I raised a new puppy every year and did pet sitting during that same time. I still believe and use the dog training fundamentals I learned from Guide Dogs for the Blind today. I believe in positive reinforcement training; this includes praise, clicker, and sometimes treat training. I started working for Petco. and Pet's Unlimited at age 18 as a dog trainer and finally went onto private training lessons. I also assisted a veterinarian in administering oral medications and injections for the dogs, cats, and sometimes other critters at Pet's Unlimited. I have over 25 years of experience training dogs but a lifetime of experience handling animals.
Reviews
We have used Tiffany for both overnight care as well as day care. I can’t say enough about how happy I am with her - She is truly the best!! We have an elderly dog with high needs but I knew after our initial meeting that our dog would be in good hands while we were away. Tiffany is extremely knowledgeable not only in animal training and behavior but also in animal health. While we were on vacation, our dog got sick. Tiffany went above and beyond to get our pup feeling better, emotionally and physically. Within a few days our dog was back to her normal self. We came home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed dog, thanks to all of Tiffany’s efforts! I would absolutely recommend Tiffany and plan to use her again in the future!
We were very pleased with Tiffany's care of our dog Katie. We had little experience with dog sitters, and Tiffany immediately set us at ease. Her experience with dogs and her professionalism were obvious from the detailed information she shared about her care style and approach, and she also asked for a lot of information about Katie that we had not thought to share. Our shy dog seemed happy and comfortable with Tiffany when we picked her up. We felt very confident leaving Katie in Tiffany's care, and would definitely use her again.
We are so glad we chose Tiffany to take care of our two dogs during our weekend trip away. Tiffany is clearly knowledgeable about dogs and obviously loves caring for them. She administered both dogs meds and made sure they had lots of playtime and exercise. If we go out of town again we will certainly use Tiffany's services again!
Tiffany has done dog training and walking for us in the past, and has done in house dog and cat sitting while we have travelled. What we like about her the best is that the is professional in all aspects of her work and its good to know that while were away, our pets are in great hands and our place is being watched. The pricing is less than a local kennel and our pets are so much more content when we go away, it now makes no sense to lock them in cages for days suffering while were on vacation. Give her a call, check her prices, and take the step like we did- guaranteed you will never go anywhere else.

Information Tiffany C. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what the pets usual daily routine is so I can copy it to keep the pet as comfortable as possible. I need to know feeding schedules, amounts and ratios of wet and/or dry food, and usual time the pet(s) is fed. The age of the pet and if the pet is fixed. Will I need to give any medications and also are there any medical issues? I will also need current vet information and contact info in case of an emergency. Is your dog socialized with other dogs? Does your pet have seperation anxiety? Do you want me to work on training? Do you have any special requests? I love all breeds!
A typical day
It is mostly a residential area with some businesses on the outer skirts. There is lots of grass and bushes for them to smell. I also have access to a very large pet run. We can also go to the nearby dog park or dog beach if your pet gets along with other dogs. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Depends on your preference. I like to keep them as comfortable as possible. If they are accustomed to using a pet bed or crate then they can use that. If they are housebroken then they would sleep in my bedroom. Time I'll spend with your dog This depends on the need of each individual pet. On average, I walk a dog three to four times a day and walks last for 20-30 min each depending on weather. Sometimes I'll take him or her into our pet run so they can run and chase a tennis ball to get out extra energy before the actual walk begins. I also spend about 10-15 min. with them after their walk for play/training. I also give them lots of attention between walks like petting and gentle talking or praise.
