Pet care experience

Your Pet’s New Favorite Sitter

I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, from small dogs to large breeds and playful puppies. I’m currently training our own puppy, so I have hands-on experience with patience, consistency, basic training, and keeping a young dog engaged. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll take the time to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for.

Schedule

I work three days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability on my days off, especially weekends. I enjoy spending time with pets and can dedicate time to walks, playtime, training, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to give each pet the attention they need rather than simply fitting them into a busy routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. We have a backyard (not fenced) and are close to great walking paths, a golf course, and a dog park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, play, and exercise. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust activities based on their age, energy level, and personality. Most importantly, they’ll get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping dogs happy, active, and entertained! Depending on their energy level and personality, we’ll enjoy walks on nearby walking paths, playing fetch in the backyard, and plenty of playtime with their favorite toys. I’m also happy to incorporate some basic training and mental stimulation, especially for puppies. Most importantly, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and fun while they’re in my care.

Please let me know about your pet’s daily routine, personality, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and at home. It’s helpful to know their feeding schedule, exercise needs, sleeping habits, and how they typically interact with people and other dogs. Please also share any medications, allergies, fears, behavioral quirks, or special needs I should be aware of. For the home, I’d appreciate information about where they’re comfortable spending time, where they sleep, and any areas or items they should avoid. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make their stay safe, comfortable, and enjoyable!
