Pet care is woven right into my day since I work from home and rarely leave. My mornings start with walks and breakfast for the pups, followed by play sessions, naps, and potty breaks scheduled throughout the day. I’m flexible seven days a week and can match your dog’s normal routine so the transition feels easy.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every dog like my own. My home is a calm, welcoming space where pups can relax, and my gentle 16-year-old Luca makes a wonderful companion for visiting friends. I keep group sizes small at three dogs max so I can watch everyone closely during play. I stick to whatever feeding, medication, or care notes you share, and I’m comfortable crating if your dog is used to it.

Pet care experience

Dog lover with 10+ years of experience caring for pups of all kinds. Now that I work remotely full-time, I’m home pretty much 24/7, which means your dog gets constant company, multiple walks a day, and lots of love and extra attention. My 16-year-old senior dog Luca lives for having friends around. New buddies keep her lively, and she’d be thrilled to welcome yours. If you work and hate the thought of your critter home alone, I’m your perfect fit. I take up to three dogs a day, and we always have a blast hanging out. Your pup will be safe, happy, and never bored.

Hope was everything you would hope in a dog sitter and more! She took every measure to make sure Pearce and I were comfortable and I genuinely appreciated it! I am going to reiterate her already fabulous reviews and say she really tries to make your dog feel at home and hers! I was very anxious about leaving Pearce with a stranger, but Hope was the best stranger to trust! 20/10!

My dog had an absolutely amazing time with her! I highly recommend her. She sent me updates in pictures every day. She even took my request last minute! A dog has found a new best friend! Also, she made the process super easy.

Christina is an absolute gem! the booking was last minute (less than a week) and she was SO accommodating. she asked questions prior to accepting to make sure our pup (pg) would be a good match for the environment, which we appreciated very much. she was quick to respond and communicated instructions well (we’re from out of town and her directions were so simple to follow). she told us the plans for the day, which were perfect for pg’s activity level, and even made suggestions geared towards releasing nervous energy. pg is a pretty anxious lady, and Christina took every measure to acclimate her to the new surroundings. she was happy to take as much time as pg needed to feel comfortable with us leaving, and this put us all at ease. she sent photos and kept us updated about pg, and was communicative during the pickup process. this was the PERFECT booking for pg; Christina was kind, gentle, patient, and knowledgeable. whenever we’re in the area and in need of someone to care for pg, we will be requesting Christina, no doubt about it.
