100% Devoted! (Not a kennel:) 24/7

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.

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.

My little Border Terrier struggles with me being away from her.. When Tricia sent the pictures of Tallie she looked calm and peaceful.. She was happy to see my husband and I but not her usual panic. Great job Tricia. Thanks again for caring for my pet.

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:)
