Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog mom 🐾 FT remote!
I come from a family of animal lovers and my life revolves around my two rowdy hound rescues, Daisy and Rudy. I have experience with all kinds of pets (cats, dogs, exotic birds, fish...) and managed an online pet magazine for 3 years. I have always been an animal lover, but working alongside vets and behavior experts taught me SO MUCH about dog/cat health, emotional, and exercise needs. My animals are family and I'll treat yours with the same care that I do for my own.

Schedule
I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. I'm active in order to accommodate my own dogs' high-energy needs and can provide frequent walks and backyard playtime throughout the day for drop-by visits and housesitting needs.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced backyard for my own dogs to run around in, but unless your dog is already a friend of Daisy and Rudy's, I prefer to watch and walk them on their own turf. Please provide a sturdy harness and leash for any walks, and let me know ahead of time about any precautions (i.e. reactive around other animals or people, has a tendency to bolt, on-leash reactivity, bathroom habits, etc.) and I will do my best to accommodate!

- Please provide a sturdy harness and leash for any walks, and let me know ahead of time about any traits that may require more precaution, such as: whether they are reactive around other animals or people, if your dog/cat has a tendency to bolt from the door, needs medication, has any on-leash reactivity, what their bathroom and eating schedule is. I understand that every animal is unique and will do my best to accommodate!
