Pet care experience

Local pet lover with extra time!

Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over ten years. I grew up with a wheaten terrier who I loved for 14 years, and since then I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. Whether your pup is playful, sensitive, or needs a calm, steady presence, I’m very comfortable adapting to what they need. Most clients book me for in-home dog care, as it allows dogs to stay in their familiar environment and maintain their routine. I offer structure, gentle companionship, and clear communication every step of the way so you can travel or work confidently, knowing your dog is happy and supported. I also work as a realtor, which means I’m extremely respectful in people’s homes and very used to handling keys, security systems, and property access professionally and discreetly. Pets warm to me quickly, and owners tell me they appreciate the calm confidence I bring to their home. Although I do offer boarding on occasion, my space is best suited for dogs that aren’t excessively vocal, as I live in a condo. All normal barking is perfectly fine — I just may not be the best match for dogs that howl or bark nonstop. My goal is always the same: to make sure your pup feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away.

Bailey was great with our elderly golden retriever. When we got home he acted like we had never been away which is how I know he was treated well. She is responsive and kept good notes for each day’s events. Definitely will be using her again as long as our old boy is with us!

We are so lucky to have found Bailey to help watch our 2 dogs, one of which is a skittish trauma pup. After only meeting her 2 times he warmed up which is an absolute record, I was so surprised but so happy! Bailey is respectful, knowledgeable and trustworthy. On our first meeting she asked very thoughtful questions and clearly shared some of her boundaries. This type of communication is so important to us, not only helping my husband and I feel comfortable but demonstrating several mature characteristics about Bailey, showing she takes this seriously. We trust her and my dogs trust her - which is the most important part. We are genuinely so grateful to have her in our lives! Highly recommended!

Bailey dog sat in my home for my adorable yellow Labrador retriever. Bailey is great! She is very responsive, dependable and very mature. I would not hesitate to contact Bailey again when I need dog sitting again in my home. My yellow lab just loves her!

Our booking with Bailey this past weekend was both the first time we used Rover and the first time that we had left our dog, Sherlock, at home with anyone who was not family. It has been an overwhelmingly positive experience. From the very first communication, Bailey has approached her stay at our home promptly, courteously, and with utter professionalism. Her ability to immediately and proactively grasp all the parameters we set out was reassuring not to mention impressive. We were able to travel worry-free, knowing that Sherlock was in her very capable hands. During her stay, she was both communicative and responsive. Not to mention what others have noted which is that she asked all the pertinent questions and kept the house immaculately! Sherlock was relaxed and happy when we returned. I cannot recommend her more highly.

If we could give Bailey 100 stars, we would; she is absolutely incredible. Our puppy fell ill the night before we were going to leave. We considered canceling the trip, but she was so reassuring that we felt he would be in excellent hands. And he was. She took him to the vet, fed him ice cubes when he wouldn't drink water, and gave him his antibiotics when he wouldn't eat anything. All along, she kept us updated as she nursed him back to his usual self. Also, the house was spotless when we returned, far better than we had left it. Bailey is amazing!!!

Bailey was wonderful and our pets took to her immediately. She was very attentive and checked in with us regularly, sending pictures of them playing as well as sleeping peacefully. We know they were well taken care of.

Let me know if your dog has any particular needs I should know about. The more I know about their regular routine the better equipped I am to care for them. If I am boarding your dog, my preference is for breeds that do not howl or bark a ton because I live in a condo. Although I know all dogs bark and that’s ok! My home just isn’t a great fit for very vocal dogs.
