Highlights
Pet care experience
Fluent in Dog & Cat!
What truly sets me apart is my nine years of comprehensive, hands-on experience caring for my family's pets, consistently since 2016. My reliable background is further proven by my time dog sitting and walking for several friends, demonstrating comfort and expertise with pets outside my own home. I'm proficient in managing both large and small breeds, having cared for a Pitbull and a Yorkie, giving me confidence with all energy and handling needs. My experience also extends to cats. I rescued a cat that I found on the street, which highlights my patience and skill in providing gentle care for nervous or shy animals. I am reliable, versatile, and deeply committed to recognizing and meeting the individual needs of both dogs and cats.

Safety, trust & environment
My main goal is to create a stress-free and loving experience for your pet right in their familiar environment. When I care for your dog or cat, I focus entirely on their comfort and routine. I'm meticulous about following your exact instructions for feeding, medication, and walks, making sure their schedule feels perfectly normal. I also know that security is important, so you can trust me to be mindful of your home while I provide care. I'm skilled at providing gentle companionship—like I do for my own rescue cat—which is especially helpful for nervous or shy pets. You can count on me for excellent care, a tidy pet area, and frequent photo updates so you never have to wonder how happy they are!
Ratings and reviews
Destiny watched my dog Gigi a few times, and I swear Gigi loves her more than me now! Super professional and punctual, and will do exactly what you ask to a T. I would definitely recommend her for cat-sitting as well, we have a Bengal, and she was well taken care of!!! Thanks Destiny!
As Destiny's former roommate, I have a front-row seat to her dedication. I've watched her care for her own cat, as well as multiple family and friends' pets, both cats and dogs. Her level of responsibility and commitment is unmatched. She truly treats every animal like her own, providing consistent affection and detailed care. You can be absolutely confident that your pet is in the best hands with Destiny.
I’ve known Destiny for years and trust her completely with my pets. Having her watch Rue over the weekend felt like having family visit! She sent us the cutest updates and treated Rue like her own. It’s a huge relief knowing our girl is so loved and well-cared for. Highly recommended!
Destiny is a wonderful and caring pet sitter! She’s responsible, attentive, and truly loves every animal she cares for. Pets instantly feel comfortable and happy around her. Highly recommend!

Schedule
Pet care fits easily into my current schedule, ensuring your pets receive focused attention without being rushed. I work part-time as a Paraoptometric Technician and dedicate other free time to volunteering, but I intentionally keep large, consistent blocks open for pet care. My reliable availability includes Tuesday afternoons, Thursday mornings and afternoons, and full availability on weekends. This structure guarantees I can provide reliable, high-quality care, whether your pet needs a mid-day walk, or regular drop-in visits.

- Before caring for a pet, I like to know as much as possible about their personality and routine so I can make them feel comfortable and keep things consistent. It’s important to know if they have any special needs, medications, or health concerns, as well as their feeding schedule, favorite treats, and any food restrictions. I also like to know how they behave around new people, other animals, and on walks, plus any fears or triggers that might make them anxious. Understanding their energy level, play preferences, and favorite toys helps me plan fun activities that match their personality. Lastly, knowing your house rules—like furniture boundaries or crate routines—helps me keep things just the way your pet is used to.
