I love working with animals! Ever since I was a child I have wanted the responsibility of being a pet owner. At the age of eight years old, I did extensive research on how to properly care for a dog and wrote a persuasive essay to my parents asking for one. Well, my essay worked and it opened up the floodgates for me to pursue being a caretaker for animals! We added two dogs to the family. During my time as a pet parent, I have learned that being with animals serves as a lesson on being attentive, present and available. I currently have two senior cats within my family, and they are a beneficial part of my life.
I enjoy working with Pet Waggin because we are provided with training to learn how to professionally care for pets. Pet Waggin uses a hybrid method of education with online informative sessions to learn animal behavior as well as hands-on training with a fellow company, Underdogs Long Beach, to learn how to build relationships between humans and dogs. Being a Pet Waggin pet sitter is an enriching experience as I am continuously learning how to understand and work with animals. Because of the resources that Pet Waggin provides, I am better equipped to responsibly care for each pet and I am set up for success.

We love Pet Waggin' and our sitters. They are always prompt and the follow up after each visit is excellent. Also they are very accommodating when needed on a short notice when changes happen.
