Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I start the day with morning walks (the park next door is perfect for that), and I build in time for play, feeding, potty breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Evenings usually include a final walk and some wind-down time. Whether it’s a short visit or overnight care, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care woven into my day like they’re part of the family.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly space where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible—walks, feeding times, play, and rest—to help them settle in easily. I live next to a park, so daily walks and outdoor time are a big part of our day. Pets have full access to cozy spaces, and I’m always nearby since I work from home.

Information Boa W. would like to know about your pet

Their daily routine — feeding times, walk schedules, sleep habits, and any quirks they have. Temperament — are they shy, anxious, playful, protective, or reactive around other pets or people? Health needs — any medications, allergies, or ongoing conditions I should watch for. Training and commands — what they know, what they’re working on, and what I should reinforce or avoid. Triggers or fears — like loud noises, other dogs, storms, or separation. How they like to be comforted or played with — every pet has their own love language, and I want to meet them where they’re at! The more I know, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and understood while you’re away.

A typical day

A typical day with me starts with a morning walk to the park right next door—perfect for some fresh air, sniffing adventures, and light exercise. After breakfast and a little playtime, we settle in for a calm stretch of the day while I work from home, with plenty of breaks for belly rubs, fetch, or just keeping each other company. Midday is great for a second walk or some backyard time if your pet prefers it. For indoor fun, I rotate toys, try puzzle feeders, and keep the energy light and playful. In the evening, we wind down with a slower stroll, cuddles on the couch, and a relaxing routine before bed. Whether your pet loves to play or just chill, I adapt to their vibe and make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained.

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident in creating a calm, loving environment that fits their needs. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have plenty of attention throughout the day—and with a beautiful park right next door, daily walks and outdoor time are part of our regular routine. I genuinely treat every pet like my own, giving them the care, affection, and respect they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member!

Boa helped me with very last minute boarding (accepted a drop off within an hour!) during and urgent situation where my cat could not be in my home. They were reassuring as I had never boarded my cat and sent regular photos and updates. I really appreciated their responsiveness and kindness through the process.

I'm happy with the attention Boa gave my elderly cat, Panda. Boa kept her on her meds and kept me updated with daily photos. I'm not sure how much Panda enjoyed being in a new place with someone new, but from the photos, I think Boa did her best to make Panda comfortable. I definitely would recommend Boa to anyone needing a boarder or sitter.

Boa was very kind and I’m very thankful for the last minute help! Boa responded promptly and my Gio seemed to have a good time and he was happy with Boa and the other doggies that day. Thanks for your help!
