 Hello! I'm delighted to share a bit about myself as a devoted and enthusiastic pet lover with a wealth of experience in animal care. My journey includes nurturing my two adorable Ragdoll boys, a lively Spaniel puppy, and a pair of melodious zebra finches. As a PhD student, I have the flexibility of working from home, which allows me to offer your pets constant companionship and attentive care throughout the day. I'm fortunate to live right next to the beautiful Scarborough Park, with the beach just a five-minute stroll away—a perfect playground for pets! Imagine your furry friends frolicking on the grasslands, chasing frisbees, or enjoying peaceful walks along the sandy shores. I'm excited about the opportunity to create a fun, loving, and stress-free environment for your pets, ensuring they have a fantastic time while you're away. I can't wait to welcome your pets into my home and heart! 

I would like to share the details about the pet care services I offer from my home. 

Services Included: 

· Pet Boarding & Daycare: I ensure a cozy and attentive environment. Guest pets are never left alone for more than 3 hours during boarding and 1 hour during daycare. 

· Dog Walking: Each dog walk lasts at least 30 minutes. I offer two walks per day, ensuring plenty of exercise and fun. 

· Health & Grooming: I can administer basic medication as needed and provide simple grooming services like brushing and bathing. 

· Training:
While I don’t offer professional training, I'm experienced in basic command reinforcement and positive behavior encouragement. 

Capacity & Supervision: 

· I board up to two dogs at the same time to ensure each gets adequate attention and care. 

· As a PhD student working mainly from home, I can supervise guest pets nearly 24/7. 

Home Environment: 

· Living Situation: My home is shared with my partner Henry and my friendly Ragdoll cat. Henry is an Actuary who WFH 2 to 3 days per week. We both love pets. He also takes care of pets and can do dog walks in the evening. Our apartment is spacious, with a guest pets’ sleeping area in my quiet study room. 

· Backyard Details: Although we do not have a backyard, we have a spacious balcony which is fully fenced; in addition to the proximity to Scarborough Park and the beach provides ample outdoor space for play and walks. 

· Security: Living in a secure building with reliable gates, the safety of your pet is assured. 

Availability: My flexible schedule allows me to be available for pet care throughout the week, including weekends. 

Other Services: 

Home Visits: 

o Duration of Visit: Each home visit lasts about an hour. 

o Additional Services: During visits, I can also water plants, bring in the mail, and perform other light tasks you might need. 

House Sitting: 

o Stay Duration: I can stay overnight if required, ensuring your pets and home are well-cared for in your absence. 

o Security Measures: I ensure all doors and windows are secured, follow your security protocol, and maintain a presence to deter any security issues. 

I am committed to providing a nurturing, fun, and safe environment for your pets, ensuring they feel right at
home. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member!
