Treating Your Pets like Family

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve worked professionally with dogs for over 12 years. I actually got my start through Rover, which led me into working at a pet resort, then into dog training, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Along the way, I earned my degree in psychology, which gave me an even deeper understanding of behavior, communication, patience, and creating trust — not just with people, but with animals too. I’m especially good at reading body language, helping anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining routines that keep pets happy and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or just wants calm companionship and cuddles, I tailor my care to their personality and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always make sure owners feel updated and reassured with communication and photos throughout the stay. Pet care is something I genuinely love doing, and I’m excited to provide a safe, reliable, and positive experience for both you and your pets 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

I’m very well versed in animal behavior and safety. So it’s easy to anticipate things I need to pay attention for according to each dog I’m with.

A typical day

I’m well aware that mental stimulation is just as important as physical! I love to try out commands or see if I can keep the attention with tasks, along with lots of sniffs outside of course. But i do love a good treat puzzle!!!
