About: I started caring for dogs and cats when I was 8 years old, watching my neighbors pets when they were away. My college degree in Animal Science taught me the background information needed to care for medically complex animals, such as dogs with diabetes or cats with FeLV or FIV. I have experience administering injections, giving pills, wound care, and other medical treatment. If you’re looking for an experienced pet sitter to care for your beloved friend, look no further! I work remotely and can spend as much time with your pet as you need. On the weekends I have even more flexibility! Any time you need someone to take care of your pet, I’ll be available. I take safety very seriously and take precautions to ensure the safety of your pet and my own safety. When I first meet your pet, I introduce myself very slowly and pay close attention to body language. When pet sitting in someone else’s home, I always double check locks while entering the home and leaving to ensure that no strangers can enter and no pets can get out.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and have done fostering of dogs since 2019. My friends, neighbours, and their friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and be with their dogs. I have stayed at dog owners place and sometimes dogs have even stayed at my place too. I’m currently working full-time in a software engineering industry but my work is fully remote and therefore the dog allows me to get up from my chair and help them have a walk while me also taking a walk break from screen and work. I’m a very clean person so you wouldn’t find things laying around in my place. I am very cautious while walking the dog and will follow the instructions that are provided.
