A typical day

I love to engage pets in a variety of fun and stimulating activities to ensure they have a great time while they're with me. For dogs, we'll enjoy plenty of outdoor playtime in our secured front yard in addition to neighborhood walks. For indoor fun, we'll have interactive play sessions with their favorite toys, and I'll provide lots of cuddles and attention. Additionally, I'm happy to offer any specific activities your pet enjoys, whether it's a particular game, puzzle toys, or just some quiet time lounging on the couch. I aim to make their stay enjoyable, comfortable, and filled with affection.

Teacher who loves animals!

Pet care experience

I'm 40 years old and have grown up with dogs and cats in my home my entire life, so I understand how hard it can be to leave them. I would love to take care of your special four-legged family member while you are away. I have experience caring for all types of dogs, from Great Danes to Yorkshire Terriers. My sweet 13-year-old bull terrier, Morrison, recently passed away, and I am now in a position to care for other animals in need of a loving space. I will treat your pet with the same love and care that I would want someone to have given Morrison. My cat Jen is an aloof but welcoming co-host, your pet will feel right at home.

We truly couldn’t have asked for better sitters! I was such a nervous wreck leaving Charlie for the first time, but Christine and Collin immediately put me at ease with a sweet update of Charlie snuggling up with them. When we picked him up the next day, he was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. We would 100% use them again!
