Specialized care for your dog

Pet care experience

I’ve loved dogs my whole life. I volunteered at animal shelters in my young life just to be around animals. Sometimes though a dog doesn't like their sitter, so let's meet first just in case. I would love to give your dog all the love and attention that you wish they had in the dog kennel. I’ll give your dog specialized attention, per your instructions. I’ll take them on long walks, runs, or hikes, go to the park or dog park with them, play fetch with them, and give them scratches. Whatever is they’re favorite activities, we’ll be sure to do them. I enjoy active pursuits, like running and hiking, but I love curling up with a book and a dog just as much, so whether your dog is high energy or lower energy we'd probably get along great. All sizes, ages, and types of dogs are welcome, though I prefer bigger dogs. My absolute favorite dog type is husky, but I love almost any type of dog. Unfortunately, I don't have a dog right now because my circumstances don't allow it. I have a cat named Kitty Tuttle, I had a rabbit named Bunny Beatrice, and I have taken care of chickens before. I have given oral medicine to pets, and feel confident that your dog, as well as any other pets you have, would be in good hands. If I’m house- sitting, I’ll clean up after your dog thoroughly. Additional services like needing your garden watered, your house maintained, or your cat taken care of can be negotiated. I'm very available right now, so if your dog gets lonely easily, then extra time with them can be negotiated as well.

Information Vitina M. would like to know about your pet

Things I'd like to know about your dog before assuming dog care: Do they get along with other dogs, other people, and/or with other animals? Are they scared of anything or prefer to avoid anything? What kind of treats do they like? Do they do any tricks? Do you only feed them treats when they perform their tricks correctly? What kind of activities do they like? What are their special quirks? Where are they allowed to be in the house? How much do they eat, per day? Do you have a specific meal time? Do they have a specific time for walking and pooing? Are they trained, or training, and if so describe their training, so that my care doesn't interfere with it? Do they have a lot extra energy? Do they have any health problems, especially ones that need special care? Who is your regular vet, if you have one? Who is your contact who can make decisions about your dog while you're unreachable?

A typical day

If you're dog loves nature hikes then we already have something in common, and we can hike together. If your house is within walking distance from mine, then we will probably hike the El Sobrante Ridge Trail. There's a also an excellent dog park in the area with separate areas for large dogs and small dogs that we can go to providing they're friendly with people and other dogs.
