Kind and experienced dog owner

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Ylva and I am an experienced dog walker and sitter. The free time I have between shoots I would very much like to spend with dogs. I live in Miracle Mile so if you're in that area or close to it I'd love to help you with your dog walks or check ins. I also do occasional overnights if I know you and the dog. I'm athletic and will make sure your dog gets exercise if she/he needs it. I am used to dealing with dogs of all sizes and mentalities (Boxers, Labs, terriers, Pomeranian etc) and I don't believe there are any bad dogs just possibly bad dog owners. I have trained dogs in agility and I have also worked for a veterinarian clinic,VCA, Tampa Bay's Animal Hospital. Furthermore I am a certified Blue Star (animal volunteering organization in Sweden) which means I have extensive training in handling animals in production, including vaccinations, disease control etc. Not sure if this is relevant but I am mentioning it anyway since it's animal related. I am a kind, considerate and reliable and I can't wait to meet your best friend!

Ylva took such amazing care of my dog Pippa when I recently left town for three nights. My pup is getting older and has some vision/mobility issues, on top of already being a bit anxious away from her mom. Ylva was so patient with her and put a lot of effort into making sure she knew all of Pippa's issues and personality quirks before we left. She was very careful to make sure Pippa felt comfortable and put a lot of effort into helping her relax and enjoy her time away from home. I got daily pictures and updates which I really loved. Not trusting your pet sitter can ruin a vacation if you're worrying the whole time, but with Ylva I felt 100% confident that Pippa was being not only cared for but pampered. I would definitely leave Pippa with her in the future and highly recommend Ylva to anyone looking for a loving, kind and responsible animal lover!

Cece did a wonderful job caring for our dog Bodhi. It was very last minute and she was so accommodating. We will definitely be using her services again!

Ylva aka Cece was AMAZING. She really went above & beyond to make sure my little monster and I were comfortable and happy. I booked VERY last minute (like the night before I needed him watched) and she walls really accommodating with his pickup. Her experience working with a vet came in handy when he had an issue with a bloody toenail that she cleaned and wrapped. I, also, recently lost his favorite ball and I left her with this other ball I've been trying to get him in to and she immediately noticed that he had no interest in that ball, so she went out and got him some tennis balls. She sent me photos and updates throughout the stay and just really seemed to get my dog. i don't think this stay could've gone any better for me or my dog!

Ylva is the best! She always takes my puppy out for a lot of exercise, and keeps me updated with cute photos too. Highly recommended.

Information Ylva W. would like to know about your pet

I would be interested in knowing everything about your dog and what makes it unique. Is there something he or she doesn't like or might be afraid of? How does the dog interact with other dogs? And does your dog have any medical issues or perhaps a special diet? I've had a Boston terrier, a min-pin, a Border terrier, a little mutt named Ziggy (the on in the profile pic) and I've also been a dog sitter for a very large Boxer, a Pit Bull and a black Lab.

A typical day

I will take your dog to a park nearby where I live for exercise and play if this is something you would like. I am flexible and I can quickly adapt to your dogs needs.
