About Dorothy

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'd describe my personality as sincere, happy and nice. I like working with animals because I am active & keeping animals healthy with sound nutrition is my gift. Cuddling pets & making them feel loved makes me feel whole. I allow them to warm up to me at their pace. I'm looking for a job that allows my fiancé & I to stay at a home overnight. I started working with animals when I was 12 yo, taking care of the neighbor's dogs. In my spare time, I like to cook, watch sports, travel & do yoga. One thing you should know about me is I have a fiancé & we do this together. He helps with the pets & is great handling big dogs as he is big as well. You can meet him too. I work from home doing telehealth nutrition counseling. I am an insurance based Registered Dietitian & help people over the internet all over our nation. We are in between homes, buying our first home together hence the reason we started housesitting until we close on one. My skills include walking, playing, and feeding.

Dorothy is an excellent caregiver. I am very selective over who I let my dog Gucci stay with due to the fact that he is a teacup Yorkie and a lot of things could happen to him. I never have had a worry when she has been the caregiver taking care of him. Honestly, she is also the only person that you can tell he misses after I arrive home from my work conferences. She has makes sure he is fed, has water, and has more than enough walks. I know she walks him much more than I do from looking at his GPS Dog Tracker. All I can tell you is she has been nothing but professional and always on time. She gives my little fur baby the love I want him to have when I am gone from home. Good things she is athletic because I think she throws the ball for him to fetch over 100 times a day. You will be making a great choice and after your first experience with her you will not have to worry about being stressed out wondering if you doggie is ok.
