About: Hi! I am new to Rover, but caring for dogs is something my family truly loves. I have a friendly golden retriever named Stanley who absolutely thrives when he has other dogs to play with—so hosting furry friends is a joy for all of us! I work from home most days, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My young kids also love having dogs around and are gentle, playful, and used to being around animals. I also have a cat in our home who is very comfortable around dogs—she and Stanley are great friends—so your pup should be cat-friendly or at least respectful of cats. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor playtime, and I treat every dog that stays with us like part of the family. Whether your dog loves to play or just relax, I will make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. Since I’m just getting started on Rover, I’m excited to build relationships with both pets and their owners and provide a safe, trustworthy environment you can feel confident in. I currently work a hybrid schedule. I am home 2-3 days a week. We do have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. I have a fenced in yard and my animals are our family. They are welcome to lay where they are comfortable and shares the bed with me if needed.

Jennifer was amazing with our two 1 year old pups. She is great at reading dog behavior and even helped train them a bit while they stayed. She kept in touch and sent pictures while we were gone too. She was very responsive to all my messages and concerns. She really did care for them like we would have! They also made friends with a few of her dogs. She was amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or trainer with experience!

Please be aware that I also utilize GPS tracking on my phone and car, along with a dashcam!** Hi, I’m Maddy, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to care for your beloved pets! With over a decade of experience working with a wide variety of animals, I bring knowledge, dedication, and a deep passion for providing exceptional care. About Me As of February 2025, I am 25 years old and currently pursuing a degree in agriculture operation and technology, as well as political science, and psychology. I have been blessed with a lifelong passion for animal behavior, health, and enrichment. My expertise spans a broad range of animals, from traditional pets like dogs and cats to more exotic companions such as reptiles, foxes, and birds. What Sets Me Apart? ✅ Extensive Experience – From pet sitting to specialized animal care, and dog training, I have worked with countless species, each requiring unique handling and attention. ✅ Advanced Pet Care Skills – From neonatal care and medical administration to behavioral training and enrichment activities. ✅ Emergency Preparedness – Certified in pet CPR and first aid for all species, ensuring your pet’s safety in any situation. ✅ Breed-Specific Knowledge – I tailor care routines based on breed, age, and health needs, optimizing their well-being. My Services 💙 Pet Sitting & Boarding – Safe, loving, and engaging home environment. 🐕 Dog Walking & Exercise – Customized exercise based on breed, age, and energy level. 🐶 Dog Training – Positive reinforcement methods tailored to your pet’s needs. 🍼 Newborn & Special Needs Care – Bottle-feeding, postnatal support, and syringe feeding for young or medically dependent pets. 💊 Medication Administration – Oral, syringe, and topical medications for all species. 🚑 Emergency Care & First Aid – Immediate response for any pet health concerns. 🛁 Bathing & Grooming – Dog/cat grooming, reptile shedding soaks, and coat maintenance. 🚗 Pet Transport – Vet visits, adventures, and more, with safety-first protocols. Animal Experience While I have worked with hundreds of animals, here’s a quick overview: ✔ Dogs & Cats – All breeds, sizes, and temperaments. ✔ Exotic Pets – Reptiles, amphibians, rodents, birds, and more. ✔ Farm Animals – Goats, cows, ducks, chickens, quail, and more. Pet Safety is My #1 Priority Your pet’s well-being is my highest concern. My home is securely monitored with cameras, and pets are never left unattended outside of crate time or a designated pet-safe area. When transported, all pets are harnessed or secured in a carrier. Meet My Pack! 🐶 Maeve – A friendly Golden Retriever who loves socializing with all animals. 🐱 Aella, Akron, Asper & Arsen – My wonderful Bengal & Siamese mixes, all trained and well-socialized. All my pets are fully vaccinated, microchipped, and trained, ensuring a safe and calm environment for visiting animals.

I understand the stress of leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I am here to provide peace of mind while ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaly friend receives the love, attention, and professional care they deserve. I have a highly flexible schedule and can accommodate last-minute changes as needed. Since my college coursework is asynchronous, I can adapt my work to fit around your schedule seamlessly. As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.

About: Cats have always felt like my other half. Since I was 5 I have been rescuing and caring for cats of all ages and backgrounds, and just recently rescued a little kitten that was trapped inside a car. I love making them feel comfortable and cared for because they always return that love ten times over! There's no better feeling than knowing that they feel safe around you, and that's something I will forever strive for.

About: Hi! My name is Delayna, I’m 26 y/o and love love love animals! From dogs and cats big and small, I have had them all. I am no stranger in knowing how to properly care for a pet. For as long as I can remember, I have always been taking care of dogs and have been responsible for them. The smallest being a 5 lb Yorkie named Spike, who came to me as a puppy; the largest was a 90 lb Pitbull / Staffy mix named Thor, who I rescued from a humane society. No matter your dog’s breed, size, or age, I promise they will be in good hands. Leaving your dog isn’t just scary for them, but it can be scary for you too. You want someone you can trust. And you can trust that every second I am watching them, I will love them and care for them like they are my own. I am currently in between jobs, so I am available anytime to watch and care for your pets! All I ask is that you give me a couple days notice if you want my services. Please let me know of any instructions you have for me regarding caring for your pet. This includes a feeding and walking schedule, if they need to be crated, etc. Everyone has a different way they care for their pets. It’s important to stick to routines, as it can lessen the stress on the animals when their owner is not around. Not only this, but it is much safer for myself and the animals if I have all the information and know how they behave. Along with this, I’d love to have an open line of communication for any questions and or concerns. I strongly encourage a meet and greet beforehand as well, so the animals (and you) can get to know me and we make sure it’s a good fit!

About: The reason that you should trust me with something as special and loved as your canine friend is because of how deeply I care about animals and their happiness. Not only do I love dogs I also love training them! I have successfully self trained a service dog and have also trained many of my friends and family’s dogs in standard obedience. I have taken care of dogs from 8weeks to 12 years and feel confident in my care for them. I have a passion for teaching which is probably why I love training so much! In line with my love for teaching, I work at an aftercare program! I love this job because it only requires my to be out of the house for a short 2 hours everyday at 3. This makes it easy to be able to spend as much time as possible with your furry friend! Although I am new to this app, I am not new to dog sitting. I have plenty of references and I am completely open to meet and greets with the dog or with my dogs if you are feeling uncertain!🥰 - Pet care fits very well into my daily routine because I have very few commitments on a daily basis where I have to be out of the house or unavailable. I am highly flexible with a lot different types of schedules and routines, and I can guarantee that I will always make an effort to try and accommodate my schedule with what you and your fur baby need🥰 - Baths - Walks - Feeding - Potty training - Medicine administration - Car rides - Play time - Training - Cuddles - TAPLYO(treat every pet like your own) - Anything else you can think of message me so I can add to my list!!

About: I grew up in a dog oriented family and dog sit regularly. I love all dogs and enjoy spending my time with them. Going for walks, playing fetch or just snuggling. I currently work full time but I do work from home and have my evenings and weekends free. I can also work in other locations if needed. My own pets are well taken care of and loved. I own a large dog you thinks he’s a lap dog. I pay attention to the attitude and behaviors for anything wrong.

This guy is the real deal! He knows what he’s doing. For example, he knows how to introduce dogs to each other and is very observant of dog behavior. I feel very secure with him taking care of my little guy.

About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! We have a large open park right in our backyard along with short trails. We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and is great with big, small, old and young dogs. We also two cats (a boy and girl) that sleep the day away and love spending time looking outside in the sunroom. My three kids (ages 9 - 14) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!

Blythe was very accommodating. She took us as a fairly last minute booking since we had a funeral and my previous sitter had just moved away. My pickup estimate was off and she was kind enough to keep Grokii an hour or two longer than expected even though it coincided with putting her kids to bed. Her kids are absolutely adorable and I know Grokii was doted on because he slept almost the entire next day. Great family - highly recommend!

Newfie loves her and has made friends with the other doggies. We highly recommend her!

With over a decade of experience working with a wide variety of animals, I bring knowledge, dedication, and a deep passion for providing exceptional care. About Me As of February 2025, I am 25 years old and currently pursuing a degree in agriculture operation and technology, as well as political science, and psychology. I have been blessed with a lifelong passion for animal behavior, health, and enrichment. My expertise spans a broad range of animals, from traditional pets like dogs and cats to more exotic companions such as reptiles, foxes, and birds. What Sets Me Apart? ✅ Extensive Experience – From pet sitting to specialized animal care, and dog training, I have worked with countless species, each requiring unique handling and attention. ✅ Advanced Pet Care Skills – From neonatal care and medical administration to behavioral training and enrichment activities. ✅ Emergency Preparedness – Certified in pet CPR and first aid for all species, ensuring your pet’s safety in any situation. ✅ Breed-Specific Knowledge – I tailor care routines based on breed, age, and health needs, optimizing their well-being.

Animal Experience While I have worked with hundreds of animals, here’s a quick overview: ✔ Dogs & Cats – All breeds, sizes, and temperaments. ✔ Exotic Pets – Reptiles, amphibians, rodents, birds, and more. ✔ Farm Animals – Goats, cows, ducks, chickens, quail, and more. Pet Safety is My #1 Priority Your pet’s well-being is my highest concern. My home is securely monitored with cameras, and pets are never left unattended outside of crate time or a designated pet-safe area. When transported, all pets are harnessed or secured in a carrier. Meet My Pack! 🐶 Maeve – A friendly Golden Retriever who loves socializing with all animals. 🐱 Aella, Akron, Asper & Arsen – My wonderful Bengal & Siamese mixes, all trained and well-socialized.

I understand the stress of leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I am here to provide peace of mind while ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaly friend receives the love, attention, and professional care they deserve. I have a highly flexible schedule and can accommodate last-minute changes as needed. Since my college coursework is asynchronous, I can adapt my work to fit around your schedule seamlessly. As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.

She is great with communication and she tired our puppies out with walks, playtime with other dogs, and just giving them so much love. She really treats them like family. She is great at reading dog behavior and she goes above and beyond meeting thier needs. We will definitely be our first choice anytime we need someone to watch our pups!

I came home to a very happy and chill dog after her three 30-minute walks with Brianna. She was very communicative and accommodating with great attention to detail. I will definitely be requesting her dog care services again. ☺️

About: One of the best things about life is our pets. I grew up with three dogs who were my bffs, and I have several friends who have cats. I have tons of experience with house and pet sitting for long durations (several weeks at a time). I am responsible, clean, detail-oriented, and love taking dogs on walkies! Every pet I sit for, I treat as my own and shower them with love and snuggles! I currently work part-time at Home Depot as a cashier and part-time at Olive Garden as a server. If I'm not working, I'm usually watching a movie or show, reading a book, writing poetry, or going on a walk and enjoying this beautiful summer weather! I am constantly tending to what the angel- I mean pet- needs. Whether it's a potty break, a little treat, dinner, a snuggle, I am on the job!

About: I have been caring for a wide variety of animals my whole life, from cats to horses to dogs of all sizes! Large breeds are my specialty, as I have grown up around Great Danes, Saint Bernards, and Newfoundlands my entire life, and feel very comfortable handling them. I have cared for many senior and small breed dogs as well, so your pets will receive the upmost care no matter the age or size! I love working with as many unique personalities and animals as I possibly can, and will work tirelessly to make sure they receive the care they need. My schedule is often very open, especially during the summer when classes are out, so I will communicate well to work around YOUR schedule! I will do what it takes to get your pets the care they need when they need it. Safety is priority number one when it comes to caring for pets, for both me and the animals. I am sure to follow whatever instructions are given to me to the strictest degree so you don't have to worry about your pets safety while you're away. When going for walks I always maintain firm a firm hold on the leash, even with bigger dogs. I have been walking with large breeds such as Saint Bernards and Great Danes for over a decade, so I feel very comfortable remaining in control. I always carry pepper spray with me as well, just as an absolute last resort in the very rare chance that anything would happen.

I am currently attending college 2 days a week (mondays and Wednesday's) and work 8-5 during the week as well. I would like to be able to take care of pets on the weekends when I can. and maybe after work if that works out. I am very knowledgeable on how to care for animals. I will be careful when getting to the home and leaving the home to make sure the pet is in excellent care. While taking care of the pet I will be in contact with the owner.

About: Hi! My name is Delayna, I’m 26 y/o and love love love animals! From dogs and cats big and small, I have had them all. I am no stranger in knowing how to properly care for a pet. For as long as I can remember, I have always been taking care of dogs and have been responsible for them. The smallest being a 5 lb Yorkie named Spike, who came to me as a puppy; the largest was a 90 lb Pitbull / Staffy mix named Thor, who I rescued from a humane society. No matter your dog’s breed, size, or age, I promise they will be in good hands. Leaving your dog isn’t just scary for them, but it can be scary for you too. You want someone you can trust. And you can trust that every second I am watching them, I will love them and care for them like they are my own. I am currently in between jobs, so I am available anytime to watch and care for your pets! All I ask is that you give me a couple days notice if you want my services. Please let me know of any instructions you have for me regarding caring for your pet. This includes a feeding and walking schedule, if they need to be crated, etc. Everyone has a different way they care for their pets. It’s important to stick to routines, as it can lessen the stress on the animals when their owner is not around. Not only this, but it is much safer for myself and the animals if I have all the information and know how they behave. Along with this, I’d love to have an open line of communication for any questions and or concerns. I strongly encourage a meet and greet beforehand as well, so the animals (and you) can get to know me and we make sure it’s a good fit!

About: Hi! I am new to Rover, but caring for dogs is something my family truly loves. I have a friendly golden retriever named Stanley who absolutely thrives when he has other dogs to play with—so hosting furry friends is a joy for all of us! I work from home most days, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My young kids also love having dogs around and are gentle, playful, and used to being around animals. I also have a cat in our home who is very comfortable around dogs—she and Stanley are great friends—so your pup should be cat-friendly or at least respectful of cats. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor playtime, and I treat every dog that stays with us like part of the family. Whether your dog loves to play or just relax, I will make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. Since I’m just getting started on Rover, I’m excited to build relationships with both pets and their owners and provide a safe, trustworthy environment you can feel confident in. I currently work a hybrid schedule. I am home 2-3 days a week. We do have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. I have a fenced in yard and my animals are our family. They are welcome to lay where they are comfortable and shares the bed with me if needed.

About: I've lived with pets every day of my life and recently had to move and miss dogs so much!

As a pet owner mysef l keep a constant eye on the needs and wants of the animals around me, I currently don't have a job due to recently life difficulties so all my time is open for pet care right now I have a clean home, love taking animals on walks and my cat is good with both other cats and dogs (she gets scared but with time loves making friends)

Our fur babies had a wonderful time with Maria and her family. We received countless pictures and messages throughout our 10 day trip that illustrated how happy and loved our dogs were. Maria even gave them baths just before we returned! We highly recommend Maria and will use her again.

Rio had a wonderful time. He came home happy and worn out! I am so thankful for Christin’s calm and loving care. She is a true dog whisperer! I love getting photos and all the play Rio gets to have there with other dogs.

Jennifer was amazing with our two 1 year old pups. She is great at reading dog behavior and even helped train them a bit while they stayed. She kept in touch and sent pictures while we were gone too. She was very responsive to all my messages and concerns. She really did care for them like we would have! They also made friends with a few of her dogs. She was amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or trainer with experience!

With over a decade of experience working with a wide variety of animals, I bring knowledge, dedication, and a deep passion for providing exceptional care. About Me As of February 2025, I am 25 years old and currently pursuing a degree in agriculture operation and technology, as well as political science, and psychology. I have been blessed with a lifelong passion for animal behavior, health, and enrichment. My expertise spans a broad range of animals, from traditional pets like dogs and cats to more exotic companions such as reptiles, foxes, and birds.

Animal Experience While I have worked with hundreds of animals, here’s a quick overview: ✔ Dogs & Cats – All breeds, sizes, and temperaments. ✔ Exotic Pets – Reptiles, amphibians, rodents, birds, and more. ✔ Farm Animals – Goats, cows, ducks, chickens, quail, and more. Pet Safety is My #1 Priority Your pet’s well-being is my highest concern. My home is securely monitored with cameras, and pets are never left unattended outside of crate time or a designated pet-safe area. When transported, all pets are harnessed or secured in a carrier. Meet My Pack! 🐶 Maeve – A friendly Golden Retriever who loves socializing with all animals. 🐱 Aella, Akron, Asper & Arsen – My wonderful Bengal & Siamese mixes, all trained and well-socialized.

I understand the stress of leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I am here to provide peace of mind while ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaly friend receives the love, attention, and professional care they deserve. I have a highly flexible schedule and can accommodate last-minute changes as needed. Since my college coursework is asynchronous, I can adapt my work to fit around your schedule seamlessly. As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.
