Compassionate and passionate

I've lived with dogs my whole life, and have owned a range of types of dogs, each unique. My current dog and I have battled her anxiety problems together, and now is so well behaved people compliment us when walking almost every day! I spent 3 years dog sitting in Chicago on Rover and loved it, with some dog walking on the side. Now in CA, I'm unable to dog sit in my current apartment but would love to increase my daily dose of dog through dog sitting and check-in visits. With an anxious dog, I understand how nerve-racking trusting someone else with your pup can be and some of their quirks you work around. (Your dog hate skateboards? Been there, used to that!) I'd love to give you some peace of mind throughout your day by being there for your pup when you cannot.

I have books Trisha several times in the past and will continue to do so. My dog is a working German Shepherd who needs a firmer hand but also can be very affectionate if she trusts you. Tricia knows how to handle her, and has earned her respect which can be seen by the photos showing her years at 45° and that goofy grin that only comes out when she's comfortable around somebody. If you have a working dog, I definitely recommend Tricia. 👍 ⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐ ⭐

👍 👍 👍 ⭐ ⭐ Tricia is very communicative, and sends great updates and photo updates of the dog. She she takes better pictures than I do. She works really well with Nala, who is a very particular German Shepherd and requires a firmer hand but also a personal touch . I've been rebooking her several times and will definitely be doing so in the future. Thanks!

Tricia was terrific and we would definitely hire her again. She was great with our Cavapoos, listened carefully to our instructions and was very professional. She is a dog person for sure and knows about their behaviors and cues. We were very pleased with her service.

This was our 1st time using Tricia with our two kitties and hopefully won’t be the last. She was such a pleasure to work with. Sent pics, updates and had great communication throughout. Would not hesitate to use again for our two boys.
