I have years of experience with larger dog breeds, including huskies, an old English sheepdog, and German shepherds. I have also cared for cats since I was a child and have two love spoiled kitties now. I enjoy going for walks but they are always much better when accompanied by a dog! Whether you are looking for fun daily walks for your dog/s, a one time walk, or need to ensure your pets are safe and in loving hands while you’re out of town, please let me know and I will be grateful to be of service. I have volunteered at animal shelters to walk dogs, clean kennels, play spaces, and litter boxes, and whenever possible take dogs out for a day with the borrow a buddy program. I am currently dedicating my time to exclusively caring for pets. I am available from early morning to evening, weekends and holidays. When your pets need me I’ll be there! Pet safety is always the priority! I am very aware of my surroundings when walking a dog, ensuring safety for both of us. I can run with energetic dogs or take it easy with senior dogs who like to take their time. I will follow any instructions you provide regarding your animals and will ask questions to make sure I understand clearly. Clean water bowls, food amounts and timing, clean litter boxes, and any medications are always top of the list!

“Christina did an amazing job taking care of our kitties when we were out of town for 10 days. Your animals will be in great hands. Also loved all the pictures and updates while we were gone.”

“Niya was great! I needed someone to feed my frog and gecko, and to check on my snakes' water, and she did so wonderfully. My frog is notoriously difficult to feed, and other than Niya, no one else has been able to feed him. Definitely recommend, especially if you have reptiles or amphibians!”

About: I’ve had personal experience with animals of all kinds for my entire life. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs, I’ve owned guinea pigs, and handled reptiles. I’ve dog sat many times over the past few years for family and friends. I currently spend a lot of time home and am looking for some extra money. I figured spending that time with animals would make me happiest. I have a cat of my own and I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of grass area for dogs! I have lots of cat toys and comfy places to hang out.

“I have a pretty high energy golden pup and Rich did a great job with her. He took her on a long walk then came back to the house to play a little fetch with her. Remi had a great time with Rich. I will definitely be using him again!”

“Cody was absolutely wonderful! He checked in on my cat, Jacki, for a drop-in visit, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was caring, reliable, and attentive, and it gave me great peace of mind knowing Jacki was in such good hands. It’s clear that Cody genuinely cares about animals and takes his responsibility seriously. I really appreciate the care and attention he gave Jacki, and I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I would definitely book Cody again! 🐱❤️”
