Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Dog’s Favorite Vacation!
I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have always had 2–3 dogs in my family at any given time. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of breeds, including Chihuahuas, Beagles, Goldendoodles, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, giving me experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I’ve also raised puppies of my own and have experience caring for senior dogs, helping me understand the patience, consistency, and attention that dogs need at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve frequently pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors. Whether a dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or relaxing on the couch, I enjoy getting to know their individual personality and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their owners are away.

Schedule
I currently work part-time at a restaurant, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adjust my availability for regular or recurring pet care. On most days I work, I’m available throughout the day and typically don’t leave for work until the evening. Dogs are rarely left alone for long periods of time—usually no more than 2 hours, and never more than 4–5 hours when absolutely necessary. I’m a very active person and enjoy taking dogs on regular walks and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I would love to take them to the beach or dog parks! I also provide multiple photo and video updates daily so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and having fun.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a house and provide a clean, safe, and loving environment where dogs can feel at home. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely supervised and dogs remain on a leash unless otherwise instructed by their owner. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any other specific requests to ensure consistency with your dog’s normal routine. If a pet were ever to become sick or injured, I would contact the owner immediately and seek veterinary care when needed. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, which is why I treat every dog as if they were my own. I also offer pick-up and drop-off services for added convenience. I’m also able to take them to vet and grooming appointments! My goal is to create a fun, stress-free experience where both pets and owners feel comfortable, supported, and cared for from start to finish.
