🐾 Experienced Care for Dogs Who Need a Little Extra Understanding 🐾
Not every dog is a social butterfly — and that’s okay.
As a veterinary technician with over 9 years of experience in the veterinary field, I have extensive experience working with dogs that require a more individualized approach. Many of the pets I care for have unique behavioral needs, and I understand that finding a pet sitter who is comfortable and experienced with these situations can be incredibly difficult.
I have experience caring for dogs with:
🐾 Bite histories
🐾 Food aggression and resource guarding
🐾 Dog aggression or reactivity
🐾 Fearful or anxious behaviors
🐾 Stranger danger or dogs that are very particular about people
🐾 Handling sensitivities
🐾 Senior pets and medically complex pets
🐾 Dogs requiring medications or special care
🐾 Guardian breeds and breeds with strong protective instincts
I have experience working with guardian breeds, including dogs that may be naturally wary of strangers, protective of their homes, or slow to trust new people. I understand the importance of respecting boundaries, allowing dogs to set the pace, and building trust through calm, consistent interactions.
My goal is always to provide safe, compassionate care while meeting each dog where they are emotionally and behaviorally. I utilize fear-free handling techniques whenever possible and recognize that every dog has different needs, triggers, and comfort levels.
If you’ve ever been told, “Your dog is too difficult,” or struggled to find a sitter willing to work with your pet’s unique needs, know that there are options. Some of the most rewarding relationships I’ve built have been with dogs who simply needed patience, understanding, and someone willing to earn their trust.
Every dog deserves quality care, regardless of their behavioral challenges. ❤️
