Pet care experience

Long walks and lots of love!

I am a lifelong dog lover, I grew up with dogs and have always loved having pets around. I've been dog sitting and walking for family and friends for as long as I've been able to drive and is something I really enjoy! I'm currently in school and I have lots of availability and flexibility for dog walking, and I love going on long walks. I have experience with all kinds of personalities, from energetic puppies, to older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m very active and love spending time outside, so dogs who enjoy walks, runs, and playtime are a great match for me. I treat every pet like they’re my own and promise to give your pet lots of love!

Catelyn was incredibly reliable and always on time, which gave me total peace of mind. She went above and beyond making sure my dog was walked, fed, and genuinely cared for.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I currently only have classes on Monday mornings, which gives me a very flexible schedule during the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I love getting outside for walks or runs, so spending time with dogs fits perfectly into my daily routine. I am unavailable Thursdays, but I’m flexible the rest of the week and on weekends.

Safety, trust & environment

When taking care of other people's pets I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow feeding schedules, make sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime, and give them lots of attention so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I make sure to listen to each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they want long walks, playtime, or just some relaxed company. I also make sure pets are safe, clean up after them, and keep owners updated. One of my favorite parts about pet sitting is getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Every dog has their own funny little quirks and habits, and I love learning what makes them happy!

A typical day

I love going on long walks around the neighborhood, parks, or trails. Depending on your dog's preferences I can take them on car rides, to the dog park, and on runs!

Before walking or dog sitting a new dog, I like to learn a bit about their routine, things like feeding schedule, activity level, and whether they prefer longer or shorter walks. I do require that all dogs I care for are friendly with other dogs and new people, and are not aggressive or territorial over the home or food.
