Reliable & Loving Dog Care

I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities for years, including puppies and high-energy dogs. Growing up around animals helped me become very patient, attentive, and comfortable handling different routines and behaviors. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times.

Athena took amazing care of my dogs, Matty and Max, during their 5-night stay with her. She treated them as if they were her own, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy. She kept me updated throughout their stay with pictures and thoughtful notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dogs with a sitter, so I was naturally a little nervous, but Athena completely exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Athena to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her services again in the future!

Ever since Ace’s first stay, I haven’t trusted anyone else to watch him. He’s always so excited to see Athena, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing he’s happy and well cared for. Athena is truly amazing, she’s reliable, caring, and treats Ace like he’s one of her own. I couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!

Athena was amazing at taking care of my puppy Isobel. She made sure that we were informed that she has been fed, walked and even napped. Sent picture and video updates. Athena also made sure that our puppy Isobel was safe and tucked during the 4th of July fireworks to avoid Isobel being scared. I definitely would recommend Athena's services to any dog parent. Will definitely will be using her services again in the future.

This was my first time leaving Jesse with anyone other than family and Athena did such an amazing job. Jesse warmed right up to her and she kept me updated. You can tell she’s very good with dogs because my pup usually has separation anxiety. I definitely will book again

Schedule

I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and care throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-ins during weekdays and weekends. Since caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, I make sure every pet gets lots of love, supervision, and a comfortable routine while they’re with me.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and closely supervised at all times. I can crate dogs if needed, follow feeding or medication schedules carefully, and provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and updates so owners feel comfortable while away.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day in my care includes lots of love, supervision, playtime, and potty breaks. I like to keep dogs on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, naps, and any medications if needed. Your pup will have a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of attention, cuddles, and updates throughout the day so you can feel comfortable while away.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, allergies, anxieties, medical conditions, or behaviors I should be aware of ahead of time. I also like to know their feeding schedule, potty routine, energy level, and how they interact with other dogs. For everyone’s safety, I do prefer dogs that are friendly, up to date on vaccinations, and comfortable in a home environment.
