Bully & Protection Breeds Welcome!
Pet care experience
Hello everyone! My name is Ty, and I am a professional dog handler, with 10+ years experience. I started pet/house-sitting in college as a side gig, and discovered I have a gift with animals, especially canines! I currently have 2 very good dogs of my own--a 9 year old female standard poodle and a 5 year old male American bully. Dogs adjust quickly to new situations with a confident human and other dogs to follow. I've got that pack mom energy and my dogs have great pack manners! Book me for private or pack play sessions, where I facilitate social behavior rehabilitation and obedience training. I've dealt with nearly every kind of "difficult" dog, so you can rest assured your pal will be among model friends and an adept caretaker! NOTE: Rover is just a platform! Here are my independent terms... +For drop-in/walks clients, my standard window of service is between 11AM-2PM. Please let me know if you need me at a specific time or if you can be flexible! +For house-sitting clients, I guarantee regular potty breaks during the day and I can spend the night, as needed. I only handle one house-sitting client at any time, but I do accept bookings for my other services (walks, drop-ins, private & pack play sessions). This means I will usually be in and out several times throughout your booking, even on the weekends. If you think you'll need me to dedicate more than 8hrs per day (cumulative), solely to your household, we will have to negotiate! +For boardings: (read additional info further down in the profile) Due to Rover's payment structure, I require any extended bookings (14 days+) to be scheduled in 1 week intervals! {Ask me about my **DISCOUNT** for families with 3 or more pets, following a successful meet & greet}. Thanks for reading, and I look forward to making new connections with fellow pet lovers. 💕😇
Reviews
I could say a million things but overall we were SATISFIED ! 😁 she kept us informed every step of the way. She was punctual , energetic , and very pleasant from the beginning. My babies instantly accepted her at the meet and greet. She followed every instruction we needed to a T! We will def invite her back to our home to dogsit again. Thanks again Ty. We felt very confident and relaxed on our trip knowing our dogs were happy , fed , and played with.
Ty is amazing and just what I was looking for in a sitter! She took great care of my Artie while I had to take a quick last minute trip.
Ty was wonderful with my animals! I had never left them with a stranger and she was very kind a reassuring about my worries, sent me constant updates and pictures. They were very well taken care of
I was super nervous to leave my fur baby with someone else, but Ty proved me wrong. She is very good with my little girl, and also updated me with photos when I was away. I would definitely go with her service for all my future needs.
About Ty O.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a caring and structured environment, complete with a schedule for outside, meals, and bed times! All dogs will sleep together in the same area, in the manner that best suits them (crated, free roam, etc.). Dogs are expected to be able to sleep AWAY from humans, unless there's a special need. Crate training is a staple in my household, so any naughty or aggressive behavior will get a timeout.
Information Ty O. would like to know about your pet
If your pet is INTACT (not fixed, spayed, or neutered), please let me know! For safety & health reasons, this may affect my ability to accept your booking. I have an intact male and so might other clients. For this reason I will not board intact pets together without a good meet & greet, involving all parties, and may outright decline any requests occurring within an active heat cycle!
A typical day
+At least 1 walk per day, and several potty breaks. +Family environment: Toys, TV, safe & supervised socializing, free run (in designated indoor/outdoor spaces), treats, & comfort. +Daily basic obedience training to keep their minds and manners sharp!
