About: I’ve been caring for pets for a few years, mostly for close friends and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company while their family is away, I’ve always treated pets as my own. I often help with housesitting and babysitting as well, so I’ve learned to also juggle multiple responsibilities. I’m currently home for the summer from college, therefore, I have open availability and the flexibility to provide consistent pet care. With no current academic commitments, I am able to build my daily routine around the pets I care for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m not afraid to ask clarifying questions about your pets to ensure I am giving them the best care. :)

About: Dogs have been an interest to me since I was young. I can't recall a moment my home without one. I've cared for dogs of several different breeds, temperament, and intelligence. In grooming, I have experience in bathing, brushing, trimming and cutting fur of several varieties and styles. I've done ear cleaning, clipping/grinding nails, dematting fur, and checking and removing plant debris from paws. For exercise/stimulation, my experience is in walking, sprinting, toy play, and training basic commands. For medication, some experience is in medication administration (orally and injections), saline IV administration, ear ointment application and heart-congestion monitoring. I can follow specific medication timings as well as specific instructions to administer medication, from crushing pills to measuring and injecting saline IV. Also have experiece in providing accommodation for low mobility dogs, dogs suffering form specific physical conditions, or dogs suffering from anxiety. In dog nutrition, I am very aware of what dogs are able to digest and what is harmful for their health. There is extreme care with foods that are potentially dangerous to dogs. For their diets, I have experience in making and accommodated several different diets for dogs. Diets that I've had to accommodate are, kidney disease, whole food, meat only, puppy tailored, grain free, whole grain, low protein, and seafood. There is only one type of diet I am against and will NOT accommodate is the vegetarian dog diet. I have high experience to accommodate senior dogs. I've personally Raises 4 dogs into their senior years, two 17 year old, one 14 year, and one 12. With that I have experience in common conditions for elderly dogs, such as cataracts, mobility issues, trick knees, cancer, kidney disease, heart-congestion and more. As an avid weightlifter, I can manage dogs much stronger and larger than average dog. I am able to assist loading and unloading dogs up to 180lbs. I can protect extra small dogs from much larger breeds. Owning a 5lb chihuahua gave me experience on how to disengage and manage larger breeds that come into their personal space. I am currently part time and have a flexible schedule. Majority of my free time is after 3pm during all weekdays and mostly free during weekends. I can do certain times during the weekdays, just need to be notified a day before. My home has a fenced backyard that is cleaned 2x daily from dog waste. There are four other dogs, with one having a dominant personality and another being a very playful puppy. Both dogs can be separated from yours if they require a calmer environment. All four dogs are trained by me to behave, as well as barriers are all around the house to prevent unnecessary or unwanted interactions. Dogs will have a safe, solitary area provided to be able to retreat to if they need to. Dogs have 24hr access to clean water that is changed three times daily. Feedings are 1-3 times daily, depending on requirements and preferences. Dogs in our household usually eat a high meat, freshly cooked, and nutritious diet and occasionally eat kibble. Specific foods, diets and supplements can be easily accommodated for your or your dog's preferences/requirements. I've had lots of experiece with picky eaters as well.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around ten years old. I have experience from pigs, bunnies, turtles, to cats and of course dogs! I have raised puppies of my own and senior dogs as well. I love pets in all shapes, sizes and most importantly, personalities! I have even volunteered at the animal shelter to make sure I can provide those without owners, a loving experience with genuine care. I will always put your furry loved ones first and give them not only the best care possible, but also a loving home away from home where they feel comfortable and loved! I am a full time student at UCSB where I only attend a couple of classes in the morning for only a few hours at a time. I live very close to campus so I am always able to come home in between classes. I am very much a home body so I have pretty much a free schedule to bond and play with your furry loved one! My home is very safe, it is a studio with a smaller backyard. There is much space inside for your furry loved ones to play and the best part is the dog park across the street! For those whose house I will be entering, I will always listen to any special instructions and be very respectful of your space.

About: I’ve been volunteering at the shelter for the last several years. I participate in their cruising canines program that has me take a shelter pup out weekly for a few hours to burn energy. This includes going for walks, swimming, going to get a puppacino or just cruising in the car and wind surfing! I’ve taken all dog sizes and am physically fit enough to take on larger dogs. I’ve had animals of my own since I was 7 years old. Anywhere from ducks, to pigs, to dogs, cats and geese! I live a very active lifestyle and fitness is a huge part of my daily routine. I have 4 dogs of my own and understand how a pet is more than just a pet, they are a family member! I work from home as a seamstress, which allows for my schedule to be very flexible. Last minute bookings to planned bookings work for me! All of my dogs are inside dogs. They are treated with the same care as humans, if not more. Comfort is top priority for my animals and I understand every pet will require something different. No 2 animals are the same and volunteering at the shelter has helped me learn that quickly! I feel I am very good at a reading the situation and would never do anything to make an animal feel uncomfortable.

About: I grew up with 6 dogs that I cared for and loved with all of my heart. Dogs can expect lots of love, play, and exercise. I work from home by caring for my disabled husband and our 3 cats. I can easily fit walks check-ins and pet-sitting into my schedule. In my own home, keeping everything safe and clean for my pets is important to me. Working with your pets in their own homes will carry the same importance. I will make sure they have fun and enjoy their time, even when away from their pet parents.

About: I was gifted my first dog on Christmas when I was 4 years old and learned to care and love him all his life.
