Pet care experience

Experienced, Loving Dog Sitter

I’ve been caring for dogs for over 6 years, including raising and caring for my own Lab mix named Otis. I’m experienced with the day-to-day needs of dogs, from walks and playtime to feeding, companionship, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every dog like family and take pride in providing patient, attentive, and individualized care. I’d be happy to give your pup a fun, comfortable, and stress-free stay while you’re away!

I’ve known her for years, and I can confidently say she is one of the most responsible and caring pet owners I know. She genuinely loves animals and always makes their health, happiness, and safety a priority. She also lives a very active lifestyle. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra attention, they’ll be in great hands. She’s especially great at socializing animals and understanding their different personalities and comfort levels. I trust her with my own pets and recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, patient, and loving to care for their fur baby!

My dear sister Brenda is the most loving human I have ever met. Growing up in our home, she always talked about raising a puppy one day. I never doubted that she would be a great mom, and I was right. In October of 2020, I got to meet my forever friend, Otis. He was a small brown lab with beautiful brown eyes. Brenda went above and beyond to make sure Otis was the happiest pup in the universe. Providing him with his favorite toys, treats, even his very own place on the sofa! Watching how Brenda cared for Otis is something that is admired. It took a lot of patience after many bathroom accidents and rough puppy chomp bites, but she never strayed from the immense love she had for him. After a couple of weeks in his new home, Otis was looking as strong as ever! And today we can happily say he is 6 years old, loves to steal shoes from time to time, and is a bit of an oldy now, but is so incredibly adored by his mom. Their love is beloved. I would hope you give my sister a chance. The famous Otis would say, "Rover, she's the best mom in the whole world!" And I obliged him.

I work remotely 4 days a week and my husband, Nick, owns a small business in the neighborhood and regularly stops by home to check in and dog walk. We’d provide your dog with a calm, fun, caring, and attentive environment while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide dogs with a comfortable, loving, and structured routine throughout the day. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and regular meals according to their usual schedule. I also give them plenty of opportunities to relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual personality, energy level, and needs, and I always prioritize their safety and happiness. My goal is for every pup to feel cared for, comfortable, and loved while they’re with us.
