Pet care experience

14 Years of Pet Care Experience

I’ve cared for large breeds, medium breeds including French Bulldogs, small dogs, shelter cats, and even birds and reptiles. I understand how different every animal’s personality and energy can be, and I adjust my approach to meet them where they are. I’ve also cared for my own senior dog, which taught me patience, gentleness, and how important a steady routine is for aging pets, especially when it comes to mobility and medication. Whether your pet is high energy, shy, or enjoying their senior years, my goal is to create a calm, safe, and peaceful experience while you’re away. I treat every animal with genuine care, attentiveness, and respect for the comfort of their home and routine.

Astro was a lifesaver when we needed a last minute sitter for our wiener dog. We got regular updates and pictures and Gretchen seemed very happy and well cared for when we returned. Would definitely book again.

Blü was in the best hands! Our sitter was communicative, sent photos throughout, and clearly gave Blütons of love and attention. We’ll definitely be booking again next time I’m out of town.

Astro was extremely attentive to Kash & I, sent frequent detailed updates with pictures :) and even provided a leash so I wouldn’t have to return home after forgetting it once I dropped him off. I would 100% recommend and book again. very very sweet, caring, and communicative!

Couldn’t ask for anyone better. I have a lovable and friendly dog but he is big and strong. Astro seemed to have no trouble at all handling his energy and weight. Stuck to his routine and when I picked him up I noticed how clam and happy he was. Also her communication is 5 stars with photos and updates with out ever asking. Which made me stay at ease with his stay. Would definitely use again.

Astro was incredible with Dahlia, who seemed like she enjoyed every minute of her stay! It was very apparent that Astro treated Dahlia like her own pup, taking great care to keep her daily routines intact, even asking me about dog park suitability and walking habits. She assured me she could handle quite a strong dog, given her experience, and I had zero concerns the entire time. She also sent great photos and videos and checked in unprompted, which I really appreciated. I would recommend Astro to anyone, and would be grateful if Dahlia had the chance to stay with her again! Thank you Astro for taking such good care of our girl.

Astro is a huge animal lover, a warm-hearted caregiver, and a highly responsible protecter who always gives her very best when caring for pets. As her roommate for over half a year, I have seen firsthand how dedicated she is to providing the best possible environment for them. She makes sure they receive nutritious meals, plenty of exercise through regular walks, and a comfortable indoor setting with well-managed temperatures. No matter how busy her schedule gets, she always makes time to show them love and attention. I wholeheartedly trust her with any pet and highly recommend her as a caregiver.

Safety, trust & environment

I share a spacious duplex apartment with my roommate, who also genuinely loves animals. We currently have no pets, so your pet will receive our full attention in a quiet, low stress home environment. They will be treated with care, patience, and affection, while maintaining their usual routine so they feel safe and settled. We also have access to a spacious rooftop patio, which offers a peaceful outdoor space, especially wonderful for senior dogs who enjoy calm moments in fresh air.
