Treating Your Pets Like Family

Thank you for considering me to care for your pets! I've shared my life with dogs and cats for more than 30 years and understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and way of showing trust. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or quiet and independent, I'll care for them with patience, consistency, and respect. I currently share my home with my 15-year-old domestic shorthair, Meatball, who reminds me every day that pets thrive on familiar routines and attentive care. Whether I'm looking after dogs or cats, my goal is to keep their daily routine as normal and comfortable as possible while you're away. As a U.S. Air Force veteran, I value reliability, attention to detail, and following through on my commitments. If you leave detailed instructions, I'll follow them carefully—from feeding schedules and medications to walks, litter box care, playtime, and household preferences. I'm comfortable caring for large dogs, puppies, multiple pets, and maintaining a calm, clean, and respectful presence in your home. I'm available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and for established clients I'm happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. I also have reliable transportation and would not hesitate to take your pet to an emergency veterinarian if the need ever arose. I'll provide photo and message updates as often as you prefer, so you'll always know how your pets are doing. My promise is simple: I'll treat your pets with the same kindness, patience, and attention I'd want for my own, and I'll care for your home as respectfully as if it were mine. When you return, I want you to find happy pets, a well-kept home, and complete peace of mind.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes, including overnight stays, because I believe many pets are happiest when they can remain in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. For overnight bookings, I do ask that the home be flea-free for the comfort and well-being of everyone involved. Before each booking, I'll take the time to learn your pet's schedule, personality, feeding routine, favorite activities, medications (if applicable), and any household preferences you'd like me to follow. Every pet is unique, and I believe consistency helps reduce stress while you're away. For dogs, I'm happy to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, fetch, tug, outdoor time, or simply a calm companion to relax with. For cats, I'll provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, play and enrichment, or quiet companionship for cats who prefer affection on their own terms. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep things clean and organized, bring in mail, water plants, or handle other agreed-upon household tasks, and make sure everything is in order when you return. Communication is a priority for me, so I'll send photo and message updates as often as you prefer. My goal is for you to travel with confidence, knowing your pets are receiving attentive, dependable care and that your home is in responsible hands until you return.

Before a stay, I'd like to know your pet's daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, allergies, favorite activities, and any behavioral quirks or triggers. Please let me know how they do with strangers, other animals, thunderstorms, fireworks, and being left alone. For dogs, it's helpful to know their leash manners, recall, energy level, and any commands they know. For cats, I'd appreciate knowing their hiding spots, litter box routine, and favorite toys. If I'm staying in your home, please let me know about any household rules, security systems, Wi-Fi information (if needed), and emergency contacts, including your veterinarian. I also ask that the home be flea-free before the stay begins so your pets and my belongings remain protected. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can keep your pet comfortable, happy, and following their normal routine.
