Hello all! My name is Claire and I love animals. I grew up taking care of hamsters (who lived long lives), dogs, frogs, hermit crabs, and rats. I have experience with indoor and outdoor cats, and rabbits as well. I am able to lift 30 lb. (give or take a few) dogs daily if needed, and can lift larger dogs for emergency scenarios. I do have experience with administering allergy and diabetes medication for dogs, as well as general senior dog care. Outside of this site/app, I have done numerous weekend, week, and weeks-long sits for multiple pet owners. Also, I am available to do mid-day check-ins! All animals deserve kindness and understanding. I give extra time to especially tricky or nervous animals. :)
Claire was very good with my dogs, she was also mindful not to leave them alone for too long. My current dog is a rescue that has "issues" but I just let Claire know what not to do and there were no problems.
