Fur Babies for the win!

Pet care experience

I have two cats whom I care for and a senior dog (crossed over Jan 2024). Their names are Teddy (dog), Missy, and Casey (cats) and they have been in my life since they were babies. I would feed them regularly, take Teddy on walks, bathe them monthly, clip their nails, play with them, and show affection to them. I use treats when they behave well and they have a set time for feeding and walking. I taught my dog new tricks whenever I could. I am patient with my babies and we normally play around until they are tired. I would look out for their cues in what they want and if time is applicable for it. I've taken care of a few senior dogs including my own and I make sure I go at their pace whenever I visit. I have met a variety of amazing cats with their personality and it is always an adventure to spend time with them. I have 1.5+ years of experience with injected medication administration and 5+ years of oral medication administration.

Tina was amazing! She very communicative, sent a ton of photos and videos, and was detailed in all of her notes! She definitely went above and beyond and even brought some of her own cat toys to play with our cat! We will absolutely use her again!

This is my third review for Tina, but she deserves every bit of praise. She takes care of our diabetic kitty with such care. We feel so glad to get Tina’s messages and photos during her visits. She is our go to sitter because she is just wonderful :) Thanks, Tina!!

Thank you Tina for taking care of Hope (and my place a little bit!). Tina’s thoughtfulness and responsiveness prompt me to choose her as my future sitter without any hesitation! Will recommend her to everyone.

Information Tina H. would like to know about your pet

What particular things do they like most. What to stray away from. What commands do they listen to. Specific toy that they like most. How much can they walk per session.

A typical day

When your dog is in my care, we will play fetch, tug-o-war, and talk nonstop to each other. I will take them to Doyle Community Park and take a stroll around the park and enjoying the weather and other animals. If they like to be around other dogs, we can also go to the dog park and hang out there. In regards to taking care of your cat, I will let them get used to me first and sit there while they are analyzing me. Afterward, I will feed them, refill the water, clean their litter box, talk with them, and play with them using their favorite toys. I am a firm believer that we as humans, need to be patient with animals so they are comfortable with us first.

Availability

I am available every day to leave my home or even stay to take care of other animals and be able to fit pet care into my routine. I enjoy working with animals and make sure they are in the best care when they are with me. When I am unavailable, it usually because I am on vacation or have personal plans made in advance.
