About: I’ve cared for dogs since childhood, growing up with seven and now raising two Basset Hounds. I treat every pet like family—with love and attention. I've been caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments since I was 9, including walking, feeding, bathing, and giving extra attention to senior dogs and those with special needs. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly rely on me to care for their pets, knowing I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs active playtime or calm companionship, I bring genuine love, experience, and dedication to every visit. I’m currently an unemployed student and available full - time so my schedule is clear. I respond fast and show up fast, whenever and wherever. I have two very friendly basset hounds at home that can give your doggy some company. I have homemade beds for all doggies and crates if needed. Very spacious house with 4 floors, no backyard, but at least 3 walks per day implemented into the daily routine for exercise as well as plenty of dog toys and treats.

Would absolutely trust him again.”
