Hi pet parents! 🐾 To make sure I can give your fur babies the best care possible, here is a quick update on my current availability and my upcoming schedule: Current Work Days & Late-Night Walks On the days you see blocked off on my calendar, I am working my day job from 7:00 AM to 7:30 PM. Need a late-night walk? Please still reach out! I am happy to accommodate later evening walks or drop-ins on my work days once I wrap up. Upcoming Fall Schedule (Starting August 31) I will be starting my nursing school classes, which means my weekday availability will shift a bit: Mondays & Tuesdays: Unavailable 8:00 AM – 11:35 AM Thursdays & Fridays: Unavailable 6:30 AM – 2:55 PM Note: Outside of these specific class blocks, I am highly flexible! If you need care on these days, send me a message and we can easily work around my school hours. Looking forward to seeing your pups and kitties soon! 😊

Safety, trust & environment

My priority is the safety and well being of your pet! I thoroughly review all the information provided of your pet and communicate any questions I may have. I make an effort to know feeding schedules, potty preferences and activity schedules before meeting your pet. My goal is make sure your pet feels at home with zero disruption to their routine.

Information Denise V. would like to know about your pet

To give your fur baby the absolute best care, I’d love to know a few details beforehand! Please share their typical feeding and bathroom schedule, any medication needs, and how they do on a leash or around other animals. It’s also incredibly helpful to know their quirks, what makes them happy, what scares them (like loud noises or thunderstorms), and any behavioral traits I should look out for. The more I know, the more comfortable and safe I can make your pet feel!

A typical day

Because my schedule varies between my work shifts and nursing school, a typical day with your pet is all about structured fun and personalized care! On my free days, our routine includes morning walks, plenty of playtime, and dedicated attention. On days when I have class or work, I structure my visits around those blocks, ensuring I'm there for refreshing late, night walks, evening play sessions, or mid-day check-ins depending on the schedule. I always make sure your pet gets their meals on time, plenty of potty breaks, and lots of love so their routine stays perfectly intact. I love keeping pets active and happy! Depending on your pet's energy level and preferences, a typical hangout can include energetic neighborhood walks, fun games of fetch in the yard, or interactive puzzle toys to keep their brains busy. If you have a high-energy pup, we’ll go for brisk walks to burn off that extra steam. If your pet prefers a more relaxed vibe, I am all about cozy cuddle sessions, belly rubs, and giving them plenty of love and attention while we hang out.

Pet care experience

For the past 5 years I've pet sat for family and friends, especially during the summer. Many have suggested I venture out to pet sit on the side because they love how I care for their pets. Pets are part of the family and I understand the importance of a trusting pet sitter. Your pets safety and well being will always be my priority!

Denise have been walking Stella and Milo many times a week and babsitted them in my home a few times in the past few months! I feel very safe knowing she is the one coming, the pups adore her and she always gives a lot of updates/pictures! 🤗

Denise has been amazing with Stella and Milo. They have lots of energy and she has been great to adapt to their own unique personalities. Stella is 9 1/2yo and started limping one night and she let me know right away sending me videos and pictures. She always sends great updates and pictures which makes my shifts so much better!
