HI I go by the name of Toby.I recently had a best friend that pass his name is Lucky I miss him dearly.With Lucky he thought me to be calm as a pet owner. Any pet parent knows that with animals things don’t always go according to plan. But a pet sitter must remain patient when your pet doesn't behave as expected, and stay calm so your pet doesn't feel and react to the anxiety. He also thought me to sense his needs. A good pet sitter recognizes the needs of your pet and responds to them. The person should realize when your dog doesn’t want to play anymore and give his/her space. Im someone who handles your pet affectionately and never uses physical punishment or force, like dragging on your dog's leash during a walk.
