Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Tricia Henkelman. I have been taking care of animals for others with exceptional attention and respect of owners requests. I am a professional, animal lover and enthusiast. Animal care and learning is a passion of mine. I have been very fortunate to be around dogs my whole life. I am also fortunate to learn every day about the different breeds and many personalities which enthrall and engage any future insight. I am capable and have the desire to learn and adapt to many variations in breeds and personalities. As I further my education and responsibilities in taking care of one's pets I look forward to engaging in further training in animal variables in order to promote a professional and knowledgeable skilled behavior between myself, owner and their pet. I can promise a person will not experience regret in any of my future accommodations. I hope and am prepared for the opportunity to work With many clients with unconditional respect and care with their beloved animals. My schedule is open day and night. I have another part time job that I work from home at so I am able to spend and care for your pet 24/7. I will give my full divided attention to your pet and treat them as a part of my own family. I will not only smother them with affection but also take them on walks several times a day.
Reviews
Fabulous! She communicated well and took amazing care of my pup. He wanted to stay longer, he was having such a good time. We’ll definitely be rebooking. Thank you!
This was my first time using Rover, and Tricia made it a great experience. I got my dog Ava about a month ago. She has separation anxiety and can't be left alone yet. I appreciated Tricia offering a meet and greet ahead of time, sending an update with pictures while she watched Ava, and being flexible with pick-up times. It all made me feel more comfortable. I have already booked Tricia again in a couple of weeks.
My dog is like my baby so I’m very picky about who takes care of him when I can’t. Tricia took amazing care of Einstein while we were out of town. She sent me pictures and updates everyday., took him on lots of walks, and I could tell he was very happy and comfortable. I felt at ease the whole time.
Tricia & Donovan H. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.

Information Tricia & Donovan H. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences. I only typically would want to know an animals energy level and tolerance when walking. I am here to respect your needs and the animals needs:)
A typical day
I will walk your pet several times through out the day. Typically I take my clients pet on a walk every couple hours for their own energy levels, or for there sheer gratification. I accept what you would like and your own comfort zone where and when to walk. I believe the most gratifying life and sustainable for all creatures is to care for them as if they were my own and for the comfort zone of all my clients. I believe I am able to give an animal a comforting, positive atmosphere. This is healthy for them and much more rewarding than alone in a kennel. I hope to take care of yours! I not only make a living by this but I am grateful to be a positive reinforcement in their lives and make my clients at ease that they are well taken care of:) BTW, I am also rewarded because I genuinely love to do this:)
