About Chloe
Hello! My name is Chloe and I'd love to help you care for your dog and/or cat. I grew up with dogs (since I was three!) and cats, and have an immense love for animals. I recently lost my golden retriever and my tabby cat, and I'm looking to do some dog walking and dog/cat sitting to spend more time with animals while I'm taking a career break.
Training/certification:
I am currently in the process of obtaining my certification for Low Stress Handling® (a RACE, IAABC and CCPDT approved certification) that emphasises care, safety and trust and reduction of fear and anxiety when working with dogs and cats. I am committed to treating each animal with the utmost care, empathy and patience so that they feel comfortable and less fearful with each interaction I have with them.
Areas covered:
I am based around Tanglin, and am happy to cover the surrounding areas for dog walking/pet sitting (e.g., Tanglin, Orchard, Redhill, Queenstown, River Valley). Please do message me if you're a bit further away and I'll see if I can fit it in :).
My experience with dogs:
I have experience caring for both large and small dogs of all ages - I had golden retrievers, a jack russell, a jack russell/chihuahua mix, a toy fox terrier, and a couple of lovely stray dogs in the family. I nursed my golden retriever through the last two years of his life when he had cancer, so I am comfortable administering medication (with non-agressive dogs). I also used to volunteer at a dog shelter and worked as a dog walker while I was a student in the Netherlands.
My experience with cats:
My family adopted three stray cats that we found (on different occasions) when they were kittens, and I have experience caring for cats. My oldest cat just passed away a month ago at 17, and my other two cats (ages 4 and 12) are currently living with my parents.
I'd be delighted to help you care for your dogs and/or cats when work/life gets too busy. I'm also happy to check in on your dogs and/or cats daily when you're away on holiday, and I will treat your home with care and respect. I will send daily updates along with pictures of your loved ones for your peace of mind. Daily duties such as feeding, walking, playing/interacting, and clearing of pee/poo/litterbox are not an issue - please let me know whatever else you might need help with.
I will schedule a meet and greet before taking on a job, and ask you a couple of questions about your lovely pet to ensure that I care for them as best as I can.
Please do reach out if you have any questions at all. Thank you!
