Pet care experience

Give your pet a mini-vacation. 🐶

I have years of experience caring for and training animals, including my own dog and cat. I understand the unique needs of both energetic, playful pets and more independent or senior animals. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy pup, reinforcing training, or providing gentle care for older pets, I tailor my approach to each animal’s personality and needs. My hands-on experience has given me the patience, knowledge, and intuition to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Since I work in freelance Talor/Clothing Designer my schedule is OPEN! and I can work from anywhere.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide attentive and personalized pet care in my clients' homes and on walks, ensuring each pet feels comfortable and well-cared for in their familiar environment. Whether it’s following their routine, providing playtime, administering medication, or giving extra affection, I tailor my care to their specific needs. On walks, I make sure pets get the right balance of exercise, exploration, and training reinforcement. I also take my own dog to the local dog park regularly, so I’m experienced in managing social interactions and creating safe, enjoyable experiences for dogs of all energy levels.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day of pet care with me is filled with attention, exercise, and companionship tailored to each pet’s needs. Morning walks start the day with fresh air and movement, whether it’s a relaxed stroll or an energetic adventure. Throughout the day, I ensure pets get plenty of playtime—fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, or interactive games to keep them mentally and physically engaged. For dogs who enjoy social time, I take them to the local dog park (with owner approval) for safe and fun interactions with other dogs. If a pet prefers a quieter environment, we enjoy backyard play or indoor enrichment activities. Cuddle time, belly rubs, and companionship are always part of the routine, ensuring pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away. For senior pets or those with special needs, I adjust activities to their comfort level, providing gentle exercise, slow walks, and extra care. Whether it’s an active day or a relaxed one, I make sure each pet feels happy, engaged, and well cared for.

Before caring for a pet, I like to gather important information to ensure they receive the best care possible. I ask about their routine, temperament, medical needs, and any special preferences they have. It’s especially important for me to know if a pet has shown any signs of aggression in the past. If that’s the case, I’ll need to work with the owner to determine whether the job is a good fit and arrange a general introduction with both the pet and owner beforehand. This helps ensure a safe, positive experience for everyone involved.
