“I found out the day before that I needed a sitter for my 8 month old, yet to be neutered, tank of a puppy, Apollo. Having previously left him with only family members, and only a handful of times, we were a little nervous. When we first got there, Apollo immediately seemed to feel comfortable, not even looking back at me. I received photos a few hours in, and when it was time to pick him up, Apollo was trying to climb into a lap (he’s 75 lbs), and was being praised as a love, cuddle bug! Overall positive, seamless experience and I would book again.”

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my comprehensive approach to pet care, emphasizing not just the physical but also the emotional well-being of the animals under my care. With a background in animal behavior, I specialize in training puppies, using positive reinforcement techniques to establish good habits early on. For senior dogs, I provide gentle care tailored to their unique needs, ensuring they remain comfortable and engaged despite any age-related challenges. Additionally, I am skilled in administering medication and first aid, for I am an EMT. This makes me well-prepared to handle a wide range of health needs. My commitment to regular, open communication with pet owners means you'll always stay updated on your pet's adventures and well-being. Whether it's a high-energy puppy or a senior dog, I strive to create a nurturing environment that feels like a second home to every pet. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, reflecting my genuine passion for animals and their well-being. Each morning starts with a dedicated time for outdoor walks or playtime, ensuring my dog under my care get the exercise and stimulation they need to start their day happily. Throughout the day, I balance my own work and responsibilities with regular check-ins, play sessions, and cuddle times, maintaining a comforting presence for my pet. Weekly, I allocate specific days for longer adventures or visits to dog parks, where my dog can socialize and enjoy a change of scenery, enhancing their physical and mental health. For my dog with specific training routines or medical needs, I schedule consistent times for these activities to ensure they receive consistent care and attention. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client's, revolves around ensuring safety, comfort, and a lot of love. Here's how I approach both scenarios: In My Home I ensure my home is pet-proofed, with no small objects they can choke on, secure trash cans, and safe, comfortable resting areas.I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime, aligning as closely as possible with their usual routine to minimize stress. Each pet receives individual attention, from belly rubs to personalized play sessions, ensuring they feel at home. If compatible, I carefully introduce pets to my resident animals or other pets under my care, supervising interactions to foster positive social experiences. Regular grooming sessions are part of the care, along with prompt clean-up of any accidents to maintain a hygienic environment. In the Client's Home Keeping pets in their familiar environment reduces stress. I follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and bedtime.I ensure the home is secure at each visit, checking locks and monitoring any potential hazards. I engage pets with their favorite toys and activities, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Regular updates, including photos and messages, keep pet owners informed and reassured about their pet's well-being. For pets with specific dietary or medical requirements, I meticulously follow provided instructions to administer medications or prepare meals.
