Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine in every home I care for. When staying in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep the environment clean, calm, and secure. I make sure doors, leashes, and feeding routines are handled carefully at all times. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior, energy level, and comfort, and I never leave pets unattended for extended periods without prior discussion. My goal is for your dog to feel relaxed, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every client’s home with the same respect and care I give their pet. While house sitting, I maintain a clean and organized space by tidying pet areas, washing dishes used during my stay, wiping down counters, sweeping/mopping as needed, and keeping the home in excellent condition. Light laundry related to the stay can also be handled if requested. My goal is for you to return to a clean, calm home and a happy, well cared for dog.

She was a wonderful dog and cat sitter. She took a great care of my dog and my cats, making sure they were happy, safe and cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in a good hands. She was reliable attentive, and clearly loves animals. I would happily recommend her and would definitely book her again.

Did a good job with our injured dog paw she sent pics daily and seemed to hang with them quit a bit , but when I came home water bowl was empty and that bowl is huge usually takes a couple days to get where it was and main reason I had someone at the house was to feed koi fish when I came home the pond was filthy like she dumped whole container in and never looked back I’m hoping I can save the koi.she seemed to do same thing with tortoise food but that’s a lot easier to clean up so no worries there .

Gave us pictures and videos all weekend so everything seemed to be fine. Except I had paid for her to stay until 2pm and she left at 1030am. When confronted, she said she went back and then left shortly after 2pm. When we got home she had taken two freeze sticks that you put in your drink and given them to my dogs. When confronted, she said that on the piece of paper I left it said there was something in the freezer for them. On the piece of paper I said they had stuffed Kongs in the freezer. These are not kongs and have a gel in them that are dangerous for dogs and one was opened! Was it accidental? I don't know. But now i gotta watch my dogs for signs of poisoning.

Destiny did such an incredible job! She was super accommodating with a last minute trip I had for work. She sent lots of pictures and videos of my dog making me feel reassured that he was well taken care of. She left my house probably cleaner than the way she found it! She went above and beyond to clean up after herself. I would highly recommend her for any of your pets needs!

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care. On weekdays, I have availability in the mornings and afternoons, and I am able to return throughout the day to provide walks, check-ins, and companionship. On weekends, I have even more flexibility and can dedicate extended time to house sitting, walks, and overnight care.

I like to know your dog’s daily routine, commands they are familiar with, feeding schedule, and any preferences or sensitivities. Please let me know about any behavioral concerns, reactivity, separation anxiety, or medical needs ahead of time. I also appreciate knowing how your dog interacts with other dogs, people, and new environments so I can provide the safest and most comfortable care possible.
