About: I have experience with senior pets all the way to new born babies! Additionally, I have experience with other animals such as amphibians, farm pets, to fish! I am CPR certified and capable of administering antibiotics. I've taken care of my pets ever since I was a kid (I'm 20 now)! I am very ambitious about animals and showing the love and care they need. I have 4 fur babies that are wonderfully taken care of! I have 3 Dachshund mixes, and a German Shepherd mixed with a Great Pyrenees! My schedule is always open! And if not, I have no problem with setting that line of communication with my clients to be able to meet their needs and their pets needs! I have a retractable leash for the smaller dogs and a regular leash for the bigger dogs! Additionally a portable water bottle for hot walks! If no walks are needed? I have no problem spending time with either dogs or cats in the safety of their home environment!
About: I may be new to Rover, but I’m definitely not new to caring for animals! I’ve had pets throughout my entire life, so I understand how important it is to find someone patient, dependable, and loving. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for pets while keeping their individual routines and personalities in mind. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I work third shift from 9:00 p.m. to 5:30 a.m., Sunday night through Thursday night. I’m available throughout the day for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and other pet-care needs. I also have open availability on Friday and Saturday nights. Feel free to message me, and I’ll do my best to work with your pet’s regular routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow all feeding, care, and household instructions while keeping doors, gates, and windows secure. I’ll give your pet time to become comfortable with me and respect their boundaries, especially if they’re shy or nervous. I’ll keep their environment clean, watch for any unusual behavior, and send regular pictures and updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Laurel took great care of our senior yorkie. He can't see or hear so great any longer and just wants to sleep all day. She was very patient and able to get him to take walks with her. She kept us updated through pictures and texts which helped us enjoy our day away more. Bentley slept so much better after spending time with Laurel. We will definitely use her services any time we need to leave Bentley home in the future.”
“Denise is a wonderful, kind, energetic dog walker that is especially caring to the dog and dog owner. I have worked with her for over a year and a half and she has been so awesome and caring and goes out her way! Highly recommended!!!!”
