Highlights
Pet care experience
Take care of your pets like my own!
Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs and a cat in the house, so caring for pets isn't just something I do — it's something I genuinely love. That foundation gave me an early appreciation for how much patience, attention, and affection animals need to truly thrive. Over the past several years, I've built hands-on experience pet sitting for my four brothers, all of whom have dogs. Through them, I've cared for a wide variety of breeds and sizes — from a 9-week-old German Shepherd/Husky mix puppy who needed constant supervision and socialization, all the way to a laid-back 9-year-old Black Lab who just wanted belly rubs and a steady routine. Every dog is different, and I've learned to read and adapt to each one's personality and needs. Beyond family, I've also cared for friends' dogs, including a one-year-old puppy for a full week and a weekend with a pair of adult Huskies — a breed known for being energetic, vocal, and strong-willed. I handled it with a smile. One thing that sets me apart: I work from home. That means no long hours where your pup is left alone wondering when someone's coming back. I'm there all day, every day — for walks, playtime, cuddles, or just quiet company on the couch. Because I travel frequently, I haven't gotten a dog of my own — but that just means I pour all that love into the pets I care for. When your pet is with me, they're not just being watched. They're being genuinely enjoyed. I'd be honored to be someone you trust with your furry family member while you're away.

Schedule
I work from home full time. I will be available 80-90% of the time to sit and cuddle, walk, or feed your pets while in our care. I love dogs, but since I travel frequently I haven't gotten one of our own yet, so we pour all our love into the animals we board or sit!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a two-story single-family home. I am on a corner lot, so our backyard is a great size, and all fenced in! There are also have several walking trails and a park within walking distance to take the dogs. No other pets will be here while your dog/s are here with us. I have hardwood floors throughout the home with carpet in the bedrooms and basement. Dogs are welcome on our furniture with me!
A typical day
Play fetch in the backyard, go on lots of walks, and cuddle on the couch at night before bedtime! If they like snacks or treats please provide those and I'll make sure the pup gets plenty!
