Dogs are family, plain and simple--even if we don’t share a genetic link! Dogs enrich our lives in so many ways, bringing joy, excitement, and adventure to everyday routines and experiences. They’re unrivaled as companions. I believe all dogs deserve to be loved and cared for with the same enthusiasm they offer their owners. My love for dogs and animals reaches back to my childhood. I was raised around pets and fell in love with animals at a very young age. I grew up around cats, dogs, hamsters, and even rabbits. I began working with pets professionally as an adult, and I now have more than eight years of pet-sitting experience, working with a wide range of clients in the Denver metro area. My girlfriend and I don’t currently own a dog, which allows us to devote our full attention to your pets while you’re away. My girlfriend and I are both young, energetic, and active, and we’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of affection and exercise. We also provide a naturally calming presence for those around us, and stay tuned to the needs of the pets in our care. We know your dog is a beloved family member and we’ll treat your pet as a member of our family as well. We make a concerted effort to learn about your daily habits and preferences as a dog owner and will uphold those while sitting your animals. We also love nature, and feel grateful to be surrounded by Colorado’s natural beauty. At the moment, I work in higher education, which leaves a good bit of flexibility in my schedule and allows me to be able to care for your pet well. Former clients describe me as reliable, trustworthy, and enthusiastic. The trust component is incredibly important. I understand my clients are inviting me into their homes and entrusting me with their pets and belongings. It’s always top of mind for me to honor that trust and provide a positive experience that allows you to travel without any reason to worry about the safety of your home and pets.
