Experienced and Fun Dog Trainer and Pet Sitter!

Los Angeles CA

Description

Hi!! My name is Lilly and I am an energetic and positive pet babysitter and dog trainer! I am a long-time animal lover, owner, and trainer -- I have raised and trained three guide dogs for the blind and have been a pet sitter for five years, for dozens of different clients, including cats, dogs (including rambunctious "giant" breeds and elderly toy breeds), rodents, reptiles, and birds! I am so excited to meet your furry (or scaly or feathered!) friend and get to spend some time loving on them! I am concerned with providing them with a safe, comfortable experience, and making sure they have as much fun as possible. I consider responsibility and reliability to be my most important job as a pet sitter. I am super easy to get in touch with and love sending updates and photos of your pets at any time whether we're going on a walk or just hanging out. I love walking and running, so we can go on lovely, long, leisurely walks, or runs up to 3 miles. Safety is my main priority with all pets, including my own. I am careful when walking dogs during the day to make sure the sidewalk isn't too hot for their paws, and that it isn't too hot outside for exercise. At home, I am extremely careful to keep dogs and cats from eating food, medication and plants that could cause an allergic reaction, and from getting outside the house when not properly leashed. I love to provide fun stimulation for your pets, in whatever ways they enjoy! Some of the dogs I watch like constant activity, and a typical day with them will consist of a couple of runs, stuffing a Kong for them, taking them to the park, and playing with toys in the house. Some dogs, like a senior maltipoo with anxiety who I babysit, enjoys being curled up in a fluffy blanket in my lap most of the day, with a short walk in the early morning before most other dogs are being brought out for their walks.
