Introduction: ** Experienced, loving and conscientious caregiving for your pet families **
** Offering mid-day dog walks and pet sitting - morning through evening, weekends and holidays **
I would love to have the opportunity to meet with you and to provide care for your little ones. My pet care experience dates back more than 35 years and I have been a professional sitter for 20 years. A lifetime of concern for the welfare of animals and children, a strong interest in medicine (preventative, natural and western), and a dedicated Mom to our own, I will pass along the same nurturing and attention for your pet families.
My visits with your pets thoroughly provide them with both a focus on their health and well-being as well as on their need for fun and cuddles. I am experienced with medicine administration (oral/subcutaneous, syringe feedings, etc.), I am trained in Pet CPR/First Aid and have a special interest in special needs and elder care for cats, dogs, exotics and others. I am also a trained Pet Massage Therapist and am a certified Level 1 Reiki Practitioner.
Each of my clients' pets are given attention based on their individual needs and preferences, and I become quite attuned to them. Knowing them and developing a relationship with each of my pets according to their unique personalities, backgrounds and physical conditions helps me to be a partner in your pets' care. You may have a new puppy in need of training, a rescue exhibiting emotional/psychological aftermath of trauma previously experienced, a pet with a medical condition or physical handicap - these and other pets have been routinely in my care over the years. I am especially sensitive to shy ones, with a gentle "come to me when you are ready" nature, and will run or walk with those who are more ambitious as well, giving appropriate levels of exercise and play. Our time spent together is positive and full, as I give them the most during my stays, especially love.
Visits with your pets are 30 minutes, with opportunity for longer as schedule allows. My routine includes giving loving attention to your pets, adhering to your requests and requirements and taking measures to keep your home secure and looking lived in, keeping your pets comfortable and safe. I will perform other duties, such as mail collection, plant care and trash removal, as well as most ad hoc or errand requests.
A journal page and/or texts, emails or calls are routine as you request and occasionally some pictures or "postcards" of your pets as well!
Please contact me for a complimentary initial visit, so that we may get acquainted ahead of time. You can feel more comfortable with arranging for time away knowing that you have an experienced and trustworthy pet care provider loving your pets throughout.
