Pet care experience

Your fur babies new best friend! ♡

Pet sitting has always been a passion of mine. In 2014, I got a job at a doggy daycare straight out of high school and realized how much I enjoyed taking care of dogs and cats both big and small! I spent 5 years there and sadly had to leave to finish college. Since then I’ve been pet sitting on the side from my regular day job. I’ve learned a lot throughout the years, and would love to utilize those skills to give your pet the best care possible! I’m currently working part-time at nights, so I’ll have plenty of time before 4pm with your little or big one. I’m available all day on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday (if those days don’t work for you please lmk and I may be able to make some work arrangements). I have an apartment that overlooks a big lake which most dogs love! My apartment building also has a dog park. I do have 2 kitties of my own who love dogs and other cat companions.

Akemi is always great and super attentive to my fur baby! Would not leave her with anyone else.

Akemi always goes above and beyond. I’m so thankful to have someone that makes me feel so comfortable leaving my pets. I know with her pet sitting they will be well taken care of!

Akemi is a rockstar!!! It was my first time using Rover and also leaving my cat alone for travel. I was super anxious and nervous at the beginning but she made me feel safe and comfortable from the start. Nova is a super shy kitty and Akemi made breakthrough with her in just a couple of days. Akemi sent lots of pictures and videos that put my mind at ease. I would definitely rebook her no questions asked. ❤️
