About: My experience in pet care began when I would walk my mom’s co-worker’s dogs and look after my friends' dogs while they were away on vacation or at work. Over time, I developed a strong understanding of the daily needs of pets, including walking, feeding, playtime, and providing companionship. These early experiences helped build my skills in responsibility, attention to detail, and creating a comfortable, safe environment for animals. On weekdays i work a full time job so I'm available anytime after 330PM Weekends my schedule is open all day ! caring for animals isn’t just a task for me it’s something I enjoy and look foward to in my everyday life. When working with animals, I focus on practicing safety, building trust, and creating a positive environment. I always use proper leashes, harnesses, and carriers, and stay alert for any signs of stress or discomfort. I make sure the spaces animals are in are clean, comfortable, and free from hazards. To build trust, I approach animals calmly and patiently, letting them come to me at their own pace. I stick to consistent routines and use treats, praise, and gentle affection to create positive associations. I believe a good environment is quiet, cozy, and full of stimulation like toys, walks, and opportunities for exploration. Most importantly, I care for every animal with kindness, respect, and understanding, always making sure they feel safe, loved, Inside and outside of their home

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals since I was six years old, and over the years, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter in my family whenever anyone travels. It’s something I truly love, so I decided to share that care and attention with others in my community. When I walk your dogs, I aim for a solid 2.5 to 3 miles during each hour-long session to give them the exercise they need and deserve. I treat every dog like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-looked after every step of the way. You can relax knowing your fur baby is in good hands. I’m a freelance artist with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I’m available for overnight stays every night of the week and can easily work around your schedule. Whether it’s daytime check-ins, long walks, or overnight care, I’m here to provide reliable, loving support whenever you need it. I have a completely fenced in yard and a sweet little dog named Kirby. I work in my garage so I’m always aware of what is going on in the yard as it is right next to me. I take breaks often throughout the day and spend lots of time playing with my own fur baby so I’ll have plenty of time to devote to yours as well.
