Pet care is my full-time focus, and I work from home, allowing me to dedicate 110% of my time and attention to the dogs I care for. My flexible schedule ensures that their needs—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship—are always my top priority throughout the day. Because I’m home, I can provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and engagement. This also allows me to adjust easily to your dog’s routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were at home with you.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I ensure the space is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards like small objects or toxic plants. I provide plenty of comfy areas for rest and have secure outdoor spaces for safe playtime. I closely supervise pets during activities and always make sure they feel at ease in a calm, welcoming environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I follow the pet’s usual routine to maintain consistency and reduce any stress they might feel while their owners are away. I also stay vigilant about locking doors, securing gates, and keeping the pet safe during walks or outdoor time. In either case, I make communication a priority, providing regular updates, photos, and videos to reassure owners that their furry family member is happy and well cared for.

Information Cody B. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to understand your pet’s unique needs and preferences to provide the best care possible. Knowing about their daily routine, feeding schedule, and any specific health concerns (like allergies or medications) helps me keep them happy and healthy. I’d also love to know about their personality—are they shy, playful, or a little bit of both? Are there any triggers, like loud noises or other dogs, that might make them uncomfortable? Additionally, understanding their favorite activities, toys, or treats ensures we can have the most fun together. If your pet has any training cues or behaviors I should reinforce, please share those too. My goal is to make them feel as loved and secure as they do when they’re with you!

A typical day

A typical day caring for dogs is filled with fun, attention, and lots of tail-wagging! Mornings usually start with a brisk walk or a backyard play session to burn off energy and get the day started on a positive note. I make sure their meals are served on time with fresh water always available. For activities, I tailor the fun to the dog’s personality and energy level. High-energy dogs might enjoy a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or a long walk to explore the neighborhood or local trails. For those who prefer a slower pace, we might enjoy some sniffing adventures during a leisurely stroll or some extra cuddle time. I also like to engage their minds with puzzle toys or training games to keep them mentally stimulated. Throughout the day, I make sure they feel loved, safe, and completely at ease, ensuring they have the best care while their owners are away.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is my lifelong passion and experience with dogs. I started training and caring for dogs when I was just 10 years old and turned that love into a business at 16 by running a successful dog-walking service. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, always providing the utmost care and attention to their unique needs. From understanding the playful energy of puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs, I have the skills and experience to ensure every pupper feels loved, safe, and happy. Whether it’s training basic commands, keeping up with a high-energy pup, or offering extra TLC, I’m here to give your dog the best care possible!

Cody was simply amazing! He watched Navi literally within minutes of reaching out. He was a true hero! Cody sent pictures of Navi everyday and kept her company when I was away. He went above and beyond. I highly recommend him to watch your pup!
