Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

I have been walking a Corgi named Muck who has degenerative myelopathy. Therefore he is to be walked in his wheel chair for the past year. He has been quite a challenge since the pain level he is experiencing makes it difficult for me to handle him and place him in his wheelchair. My passion for animal welfare exceeds the fear of getting bitten. This is why I consider Muck a friend and love him as much as any other animal I care for. His grumpiness is understandable and I am just so grateful his owner has introduced us. Muck only lets his dad and myself handle him as of today!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Caring for animals can be a relatively easy tasks, but it is important to hire someone who will know how to handle an emergency. I have also heard too many times under qualified pet sitters lose client’s animals. Please make sure to hire a professional offering insurance and bond! I have personally come back to my dog missing after hiring someone on Rover.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Does my pet(s) have any behavioral issues such as leash aggressive or food guardian.
