About: I am an experienced pet-sitter of 10+ years taking care of family members, friends, & neighbors pets whenever they needed. I am flexible to watch any breed and any size dog. My priority is making sure these furry friends feel just as loved and taken care of as if their humans never left town! Another priority that sets me apart is constant communication with the owners by sending pictures and updates as often as they’d like. I’m currently working hours where it is very easy to run and let my own pet out every 2 hours daily. My work schedule is not something that has ever gotten in the way of excellent care of anyone’s pets. I am in a home and have a fenced in backyard that makes it very easy to board dogs in my own home with plenty of space. As far as staying in a clients home which I prefer, I make sure to go above and beyond to be there as much as possible with the pets & ensure they feel comfortable and well taken care of while their owners are out of town. I always ensure that I leave the house better than I found it and always respect any of my clients homes and have constant open communication.

I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home overnight stays for dogs who just want some company, playtime, or a break in their routine while you’re away. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and flexible with scheduling—perfect for busy families or last-minute plans. I’m a middle school teacher during the school year, but my summers are wide open for pet care. I’ve had dogs all my life, and my current pups love a good dance party in the kitchen. Whether your dog is shy, playful, or somewhere in between, I’ll follow your routines closely to make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved. Let me know how I can help give you peace of mind—I’d love to meet your furry family! I am a teacher and available for drop ins before and after school. During summer and school breaks my schedule is wide open! My schedule is pretty flexible overall! I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and safe. For drop-ins and overnight stays, I stick closely to your routines—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any meds or special care your pet needs. I aim to keep things calm and consistent so your pet stays happy and stress-free while you’re away.
