Highlights
Pet care experience
Biomechanical Engineering Student!
Hi! I'm a third-year engineering student at Colorado School of Mines with a lifelong love for animals and experience caring for a wide variety of pets. I am responsible, dependable, and committed to providing excellent care for every pet I meet. My experience includes caring for family pets and helping friends and relatives with their animals while they travel. I've worked with dogs, cats, birds, and guinea pigs, and I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities. As an active person, I genuinely enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping pets engaged and happy. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or simply someone reliable to care for them while you're away, I will treat them with the same love and attention I would give my own. I am also willing to commute between your location and school, making it easier to provide flexible and dependable care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered!) family members.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I'm caring for a pet in my client's home or my own, my priority is keeping their routine as normal as possible; familiar environments, consistent feeding schedules, and the same level of attention they're used to. I take time to learn each pet's personality, habits, and any special needs before I start. I've worked with dogs, cats, birds, and guinea pigs, so I'm comfortable adapting my approach to different animals. I treat every home I enter with respect and keep owners updated with communication and photos so they can feel at ease while they're away.
Ratings and reviews
Allison did a couple drop ins for our senior dog with very little notice, which we appreciated. When we came home, his diaper was inside out (absorbent part on the outside). Luckily he did not have an accident, because this would have resulted in a big mess for us to clean up.
Ali has cared for our emotional dogs, cats, various birds and fish while we travel. The puppies love her and we havent had to worry while we are away. She follows our instructions and we arrive home to a clean house with happy pets. I would highly recommend this kind and responsible young woman.

Schedule
As an engineering student, I structure my schedule carefully — and pet care fits naturally into that. I plan walks, feeding times, and check-ins around my classes so that every pet I'm responsible for gets consistent, reliable attention. Being active is already part of my day, so incorporating playtime and exercise for pets is something I genuinely look forward to rather than work around. I'm also flexible enough to adjust my availability based on what each pet needs.
