What sets me apart is real, hands-on experience with dogs that many sitters never encounter. I own Apollo, a pit-mix with high reactivity, and have worked through his training alongside a professional trainer as well as through my own dedicated research and practice. That process taught me how to read canine body language, manage triggers, and stay calm and consistent under pressure; skills that directly benefit any dog in my care. I also share my home with Thalia, a high-energy husky, so I know exactly what it takes to keep a high-drive dog mentally and physically stimulated. Beyond my own pets, I've built real experience pet sitting dogs and cats for family and friends, sometimes for days or weeks at a time, handling daily visits and routines solo. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I bring the same patience and attentiveness to every animal regardless of size, breed, or temperament.
