Highlights
Pet care experience
Endless play, house, & secure yard!
I’ve spent years caring for a variety of pets, from playful puppies to seniors needing extra TLC. My experience includes administering medications, basic obedience training, and keeping active dogs engaged with fun outdoor play. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and safe while in my care. With a cozy home environment and plenty of space for exercise, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am an avid runner and hiker - and can make sure all dogs get the right level and type of exercise!

Schedule
As a fully remote employee, I have the flexibility to be home all day, ensuring your pets are never alone for long. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and walks throughout the day. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules or offering companionship, I’m always around to make sure your pets feel secure and happy.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For every pet I care for, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, pets are welcomed into a secure, pet-friendly environment. My house is safe, secure and clean ensuring no dogs get into any trouble! Pets boarding in my home must be 100% friendly with no bite history. I have a lot of baby gates throughout my home to ensure all dogs get the appropriate rest and breaks from play based on their energy level and personality. I ensure a clean, comfortable space with plenty of supervision to keep them happy and secure. Your pet must be crate trained or able to relax behind a baby gate without being disruptive or causing damage (as I must be able to safely separate all pets when I leave the home for brief periods of time). When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, maintaining your pet’s regular routines and offering updates for peace of mind. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and provide lots of affection and care to make sure they feel safe and comfortable, whether at home or away.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day for the pets I care for is filled with fun, comfort, and plenty of love! I start the day with a morning walk or play session to help them get their energy out and set a positive tone. Throughout the day, we’ll have a mix of activities tailored to their needs and preferences—this could include interactive games like fetch, tug-of-war, or hide-and-seek, or just some quiet cuddle time for more relaxed pets. If your pet enjoys exploring, we can take walks in safe, pet-friendly areas or enjoy the outdoors in a secure yard. For pets who love mental stimulation, I incorporate puzzle toys or training exercises to keep their minds sharp. I also ensure they have plenty of downtime for naps and snuggles so they feel at ease and comfortable in my care. Every pet is unique, and I’m committed to creating a day that matches their personality and energy level to make them happy and relaxed while you’re away.
