Providing care for your dogs and cats in the Mount Pleasant and Adams Morgan neighborhoods. You may see other dog-walkers out there with multiple dogs. I don't do that. Your dog(s) are the only ones in my care - this ensures they get good attention and are the only focus during the walk. Dogs must be requested under dog walking, not drop-in visits. I love working with animals! I grew up with dogs (large and small) and now am a dog walker for a rescue organization in the area. I also take these rescue animals out on day-long adventures. We are now have 2 young cats at home, but have had cats for the last 27 years, some reaching the grand age of 19 years. Every animal deserves the best care. I will provide your pets with the highest level of care, as if they are my own. I can check in on animals at every life stage: from kitten and puppy through seniors. I can administer transdermal, and topical medication to both cats and dogs. I can use pill pockets, or mix medication in food. I have experience caring for animals with diabetes and arthritis, among other ailments. I am familiar with pets with poor appetites and know how to use to various automated pet feeders. For dogs, I will provide walks, play and other care as needed. I prefer dogs that are spayed/neutered. I recommend a harness for dog walking For cats I will provide engagement, play as well as cleaning litter boxes and checking on food and water as directed. I am currently insured as a sitter with Pet Care Insurance (PCI).
