I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life and grew up with a dog, so responsible, attentive animal care has always come naturally to me. I’ve also spent time with cats, but I have a special soft spot for dogs! For the past year, I’ve been the trusted pet sitter for my friends, caring for their pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I take responsibility for following each pet’s care instructions, maintaining their routines, and making sure they feel secure and comfortable. I love taking dogs on long walks, letting them explore at their own pace, and visiting parks where we can play with their favorite toys and burn off some energy. I don’t rush walks. I’m happy to stay out for as long as they’re enjoying themselves! I’m also experienced with giving dogs medication, including hiding it in treats or food to make the process easier and less stressful. When I’m looking after a pet, I prefer not to leave them home alone. I’ll happily take them along with me wherever possible, and I only leave them unsupervised for a short time (never more than an hour) if I really need to run an errand they can’t join me for. At home, pets are more than welcome to relax with me in the living room, snuggle up on the couch, or even sleep in bed with me if that’s what they’re used to. I love having them around! Of course, I’ll always respect your rules and preferences and stick to whatever makes you and your pet most comfortable. Whether we’re out exploring or having a cozy day at home, I’ll make sure your furry friend gets plenty of attention, companionship, and love. ❤️🐶
