About: I grew up with 5 different dog breeds in my home, big and small. This exposure has allowed me to gain ample experience in training, bathing, walking, and giving dogs pills/shots if need be. I work roughly 4 days a week at Walgreens Pharmacy with a schedule that is posted two weeks in advance. My my flexible schedule allows me to be home and available different days each week. In my own home, I always try to put my dog first. If he seems to have a case of the zoomies, then we're headed out to the backyard for playtime and fresh air, no matter how tired I am. In my client's home, I will care for their dog with respect to their pet's preferences and routine. My job is to ensure that my clients' dogs are safe while away from their family, and that includes not introducing more stress than the pet may be under already with a disturbance in their routine.

Nina A.
“Nina is an incredibly caring and responsible human. We lived together during college and she always went out of her way to take care of everyone, even helping care for me when I was sick. She also just adopted a dog she had been fostering and we FaceTime almost daily and I can see the dog is so comfortable and happy with her in the way that he always asks for pets and tries to snuggle. His body language makes it clear that he trusts her. Her family also has a dog and whenever she’s with them she’s always playing with him and sending us photos and videos. She has a lot of love for animals, especially dogs. She’s very communicative and responsible, which would make her a great dogsitter.”
Julianne E.
“We are very happy with the care Julianne has given our pets. She is friendly, loving and patient. She is good with training younger dogs as well as working with older dogs.”
