Dog Walkers in Silver City, NM

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, I’ve help with fostering many, many other animals, I'm learning training, phtotgraphy and grooming as well. I love working with cats and dogs and any other type of pet. My pets in the home also enjoy playing with any visiting animals if the visitor is comfortable with it. I'm lucky that my house is easily divided too in case a guest needs some time to warm up to the new smells. Since I go to school part time and do Rover or dog training with the rest of my time I can stick to whatever schedule a pet parent wants, as each of my personal animals have had their own needs and I understand how important that is. I’m experienced with everything from potty training to elderly care with dogs, I am very comfortable administering medication (oral or injected) as needed. I am also comfortable with any level of training a dog, and can provide practice sessions while with me if needed. I do my best to send at least one video and two pictures a day as long as all animals feel like giving me time to grab a camera to capture their cuteness! There are two people and several cats and dogs living here, who are always ready to love on new fur friends. My friends who visit often to meet new guest and play with the dogs all are dog lovers too so there is never a shortage of hands to give pets. My pets are very well trained and only play with animals that want to play with them. We do two walks, a play time, and one training or house hold rule review every day for everyone along with trips outside in the fenced yard every 2-4 hours. i have a couple extra kennels, bowls, beds, and toys available if needed/requested. Usually, animals can move about freely, I do put up gates to make larger rooms play areas as needed and pets can sleep in either my bed or my roommates bed if needed. My house is very dog proofed and everything in chewing range is dog friendly. I don’t have any other than a few zoom calls, errands, occasional meet and greets, and emails most days so I can spend a lot of time cuddling any and all the animals who want love almost on demand. I do have a fence around my yard but I still take all dogs out in a leash until I get to know them and how well they respond to me. I usually stick to one at a time on walks as well until guests are used to a group walk. I kennel dogs during meal time unless asked not to for the safety of the animals and the ease of clean up after puppies. When I walk dogs I make sure I have full control of them and can keep them from getting into anything while on the walk. I make sure to watch what they walk on and know how to work their leash and harness before we head out on the walk. When I’m house sitting I go outside with the dogs for as long as they are out there and generally follow the dogs around as much as possible. I do stay overnight in the house usually unless the owner requests differently. I also will upkeep mail, garbage, package pick up, and any other regular house management needed in your absence. I make sure that you come home to a house the way you left it (minus some snacks usually) and happy, healthy animals.

About: I used to dog sit for my mom's friend's when I was very young. Over the years I've owned dogs, cats, fish, ferrets, lizards, and a hedgehog! I used to do pest control and always heard stuff like "Wow! My dog doesn't usually like strangers but he really like you!" I'm transitioning from Tucson to Silver City. I came to work a contracted job at the wildfire up north but don't know when I'll be called back so instead of applying for a regular job I am doing door dash and working towards starting doing business making and selling art. I like being my own boss and have references to testify towards my trustworthiness. It's getting hotter hot during the day so would prefer walking dogs in the morning or evening but can make house-visits and check on your pets any time. My dog has separation anxiety so I understand when dogs feel nervous/anxious and just try to keep them reassured and busy with fun or exploring. I get along well with dogs of all sizes (from Chihuahua to Mastiff). Lastly, I recently accepted a part-time morning job. I'm couldn't figure out how to put that on the availability calendar, but until further notice I'm unavailable (at work) mornings from 6am-11am, Monday-Friday. Thank you! ☺️

About: I can take care of any needs that your pets may need. I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and more. I have helped dogs give birth and proceeded to take care of the new litters (bottle feeding, heating pads, etc.). I have also taken care of dogs that have severe allergies, a daily medication regimen, dogs with spina bifida that wear diapers, puppies (newborn-2 years old), dogs with severe seperation anxiety, dogs with excessive barking, dogs with generalized anxiety, dogs with bladder issues, dogs with trauma, and dogs with bowel issues. I know how to give medication and am comfortable doing so, I am also happy to give baths, take care of after surgery wounds, and will clean up any mess that they may make. Whatever your dog may need, I am more than happy to accommodate and make sure they are happy as can be. If you choose the boarding option I have two friendly dogs at my home that will be there for boarding at my house or I will have to go let out every few hours if I am house sitting unless I can bring them with me. I can help take care of a cat that is in the home as well but I do have a cat allergy so I am unable to pick them up unless it is an emergency or medication needs to be given (I will always prioritize their health and saftey regardless of my allergy). If you would like and your dog is not highly aggressive in doing so, I do not mind clipping nails and giving baths as needed. I can pet sit at any time and am more than happy to be flexible with whatever your scheduling needs are. I care more for animals than most anything else and prioritize what they need over anything small I might have going on occasionally. I do college work online, so going to school isn't of any concern for blocking out my schedule. I just have to let my own dogs out three times a day to use the restroom, but would love to bring them with me if that works for you. They are fully vaccinated, fixed, and friendly with all other animals. I will follow any pet schedule you may have. If they need medication at a certain time I will make sure they recieve it, if they have a potty schedule I will follow it, if they sleep weird hours that works great because so do I so we can nap together. If they are in my home and need a certain food I will ensure that my dogs food is no where accessible and feed them in their own area. If they sleep in crates I will make sure they do so, if you do not allow them on your furniture I will not allow them on mine and vice versa. If they have to sleep in bed with you, they can sleep in bed with me too. I also have cameras around my house and even with a fenced in yard I will not let them out of my sight. Even if they normally get human food at home, I will not let them eat anything that is not meant for dogs so there is no concern about them eating something they shouldn't.
