As a teacher, I have summers off and am home full-time during that time. During the school year, I work until 2 PM on weekdays, so I still have plenty of time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already have a Boston Terrier who’s on a consistent schedule. I prioritize daily walks (morning, evening, and night), outdoor time, and lots of cuddles throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment. I live in a secure apartment with a large, fenced dog run and access to nearby parks for safe, enjoyable walks. I’m mindful of each dog’s needs, whether that means crate time, free roam, or quiet space to relax. I also follow any care instructions closely and keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind. Trust, comfort, and consistent care are my top priorities.

Information Aloysius Q. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know your dog’s daily routine, any quirks or special needs, and how they do around other dogs. Are they crate trained or free roam? Do they have any fears, health concerns, or things that help them feel safe and comfortable? The more I know, the better I can make their stay feel like home!

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk to get energy out and enjoy some fresh air. After breakfast, there’s plenty of playtime, belly rubs, or a cozy nap—whatever your pup prefers. We’ll take another walk in the afternoon, spend time relaxing indoors (my Boston Terrier makes a great nap buddy!), and maybe visit the dog run or nearby park for extra fun. Evening walks and some light play or cuddles wrap up the day before bedtime. I keep things calm, safe, and full of love to make every pet feel right at home.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog parent to a friendly 5 year old old Boston Terrier who gets along great with other dogs. I’ve been around dogs since childhood and have dog-sat for family and friends over the years, so I understand just how important it is to leave your pup with someone you can trust. As a teacher, I have summers off and work short hours during the school year (typically done by 2 PM), which means your dog will get plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day. I live in a dog-friendly apartment with an on-site dog run and several parks nearby—perfect for daily walks and outdoor play. When your pup stays with me, they’ll enjoy at least three walks a day, cozy couch cuddles, and a calm, safe environment that feels like a second home. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or just enjoys a good nap, I tailor their care to what makes them most comfortable. I’m also experienced with giving oral medications and caring for dogs with medical needs. My previous dog was diabetic and required twice-daily insulin injections, so I’m confident and capable when it comes to providing attentive, specialized care. Every dog I care for is treated like family. Whether it’s belly rubs, park strolls, or just a quiet space to relax, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away!

Wonderful experience! Aloysius and Aaliyah took great care of my dog who really seemed to bond with one of their pups. They sent pictures and videos every day and were very communicative. They were willing to do anything my dog needed to ensure she felt at home with them. My dog was a happy camper and I am planning to rebook whenever I travel. ☺️

Aloysius was a great care taker for my pups. He’s very responsive, considerate, and understands all different dog temperaments. He has no issues with my fussy dog Maui. Highly recommend and would book again in a heartbeat!
