I am a 29-year-old for a few years now-woman.
I am a papillon breeder who currently owns or co-owns 5 dogs, of course, they don't all live with me.
I also own 2 wonderful cats who are very tolerant of dogs both having grown up with them.
I live in a townhouse I share with another animal lover and so we take care of each other animals if we go away.
I understand what it feels like to leave your animals and go and you want only the best care for them.
You feel like you are abandoning them and you want to have someone who will take the time to give them love like you would when you are not there.
It is that love of animals that causes me to enjoy the job of pet sitter so much.
Whether it is sitting with a cat in his home, on the floor so he feels comfortable to come close to get the pets or at my house with a dog who makes herself right at home.
To see a pet feel comfortable and happy despite Mom and Dad being gone makes me happy.
Of course, they are always excited when Mom or Dad gets home but if I helped make that time away, a little easier then I've done my job.
First time at Pawshake. Usually use PetsHotel. Rose-Anne was very experienced and it showed. She gave Lucy everything she needed and it was evident that Lucy liked her stay, no anxiety on pickup... just one happy doggy. We enjoyed the personal attention unlike PetsHotel. Will definitely book again... actually I am booking Lucy’s next stay right now.
Rose-Anne took a great care of my 2 beagle puppies and a kitten! Crazy, I know! Everybody was happy, I received daily updates with pictures of my pets.
I am very satisfied with the sitting. Thank you!
I always do basic obedience with my dogs so I have been through that class often enough to teach it I think!
I have been taking classes in agility training with my dogs for about 12 years.
I have been teaching agility for 6 years now.
I show my dogs in the confirmation ring.
I have helped a number of friends with issues with their dogs such as pulling on the leash, crate training, and seperation anxiety.
I am a member and have fostered for a number of years for Hopeful Hearts Dog Rescue.
In the past I have owned cats, hampters fish, guinea pigs a bird and a bearded dragon.
I currently own a dog and 2 cats.
