About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs most of my life. I am able to give medications, take care of puppies, and senior age dogs. Right now I have 4 cats and 1 dog of my own! Pets have always been apart of my family. ❤️ Im currently working full time 8-4 with a flexible schedule. I am also available on weekends and sometimes evenings! I usually have an hour or so for lunch that I can also use to check on an animal. I am a good dog walker and cat catcher if they happen to get out! I am comfortable walking multiple animals at once. At home, I walk my dog and have a chain for him in the yard.
About: I treat every pet like family and understand that no two animals are the same. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special medical needs. I’m trained in administering oral and injectable medications, and I’m patient, consistent, and attentive to behavior cues. I’ve also raised my own pets and cared for high-energy breeds that need extra playtime and structure. Whether your dog needs gentle care or active engagement, I tailor each visit to their comfort level and routine. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. I love being active and outdoors, so daily walks and check-ins are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel comfortable—plus lots of snuggles and attention throughout the day. I stick closely to their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, and bedtime so they feel secure and at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep things tidy, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Matt did amazing watching my baby girls. This is my first time having someone watch them so I was worried but he kept in very good contact sent photos when I asked.

“Evita takes great care of pets. She also goes above and beyond to make sure there fur is brushed and clear of debris or burs. She is great with medication, as week as grooming like giving baths and clipping nails. She is also conscious of anything a dog might get into or tear up. Plus she loves to go on walks!”
