Dogs are my favorite people!

Pet care experience

The hardest thing is letting a dog pass by me on the street without saying hello. I've been around canines all my life as well as other pets and I've learned that animals have a special way of just "knowing." I care and love animals as if they were my own. Staying with a new person can be hard; it is so important to continue their regular routine in order for them to be comfortable and happy. In this role, my goal is to mimic a dog's natural routine as much as possible in order for them to remain stress-free. My passion for animals has driven me to help busy professionals get away knowing their children are in wonderful hands and are given plenty of attention, care and belly rubs!, Meet and greets Preferred!

Xena was fantastic. Kaidou loved her. She came in on time and made sure my pup was taken care of and gave him everything he needed while I was gone. You can tell she loves animals. Would highly recommend and will certainly be using again in the future.

Xena is so loving! I can always depend on her to watch Sparky when I’m at work and he loves her! She always texts me photos of him during each walk, she always gets doggy treats that he enjoys and everytime I drop him off she rubs his belly! She does have a dog at home named Bruce and he is very friendly and gets along so well with Sparky.

Not only is Xena extremely nice my dog poochie loves her. She smells her from a mile away and gets so exited. I’ve recommended her to 3 of my friend and every time we head out on vacation Xena is always there. Thank you so much!!!!

Information Xena V. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. The most important thing I would need is the important aspects of their routine. This includes any medications they may be taking, a certain amount of walks they take, how long are their normal walk periods etc.

A typical day

I enjoy staying active. Luckily there's a reservoir that is a brisk walk/run for plenty of exercise with lots of trees and parks nearby. squeak toys and tug ropes provided!
