As a full-time teacher during the week, my schedule is structured and organized, which naturally carries over into how I approach pet care. I am very interested in walking dogs from hours 3-7pm on weekdays! While my weekdays are busy with the classroom, my evenings are flexible, and my weekends are completely open to devote my full attention to pets. On weekends, I can fully prioritize walks, playtime, training, and extra cuddles, making sure each pet gets the time, love, and care they deserve. Caring for animals isn’t just something I fit into my schedule, it’s something I look forward to and plan my time around.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is always the same, providing a safe, loving, and structured environment that feels comfortable and familiar to each animal. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding and medication schedules to walks, playtime, and rest. In a client’s home, I make sure their space is respected and that their pet feels secure in their own environment. If a pet is in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly atmosphere with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also focus on communication with pet parents, sending updates and photos so they know their furry family member is happy and cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel loved and every owner feel reassured while they’re away.

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, since I was a baby, they’ve always been part of my family. Over the years, I’ve taken care of two of my own, which gave me firsthand experience with everything from training energetic puppies to supporting older dogs with more gentle needs. Unfortunately, both of my dogs are no longer with me due to a past relationship, but the love and commitment I put into their care remains a huge part of who I am. What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of personal experience and compassion I bring. I understand how important it is to create a safe, loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and cared for just like they would at home. I’m attentive to routines, patient with training, and comfortable providing senior care when needed. Every dog I look after gets treated like family, because to me, they truly are.
