Pet care experience
Compassionate & Reliable Pet Care
Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I understand that every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I currently have a 6-year-old Australian Shepherd, whom I've raised since she was 8 weeks old, as well as two cats. My Australian Shepherd is spayed and friendly with both dogs and cats, making her a great companion for visiting pets. Growing up, I also cared for a variety of animals, including dogs, chickens, a parrot, rabbits, turtles, and hamsters, which has given me experience with many different personalities and care needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've pet sat for friends' dogs and puppies. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or relaxing at home, I'll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I also have experience administering oral medications and am happy to accommodate puppies who need extra potty breaks, structure, or a little more patience. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I'll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

Schedule
I’m currently studying for my pharmacist state board exam, which allows me to spend most of my fine at home and provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to maintain your pet’s normal routine including regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals and any medications they may need.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize creating a safe and welcoming environment for every pet. While I do not have a yard, I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for daily walks, exercise, and enrichment. I have a friendly social Australian Shepherd who enjoys being around both dogs and cats. I also have a crate for my dog if needed to help create a calm environment, provide personal space, or allow pets to have a comfortable adjustment period. I always supervise interactions and make sure each pet feels safe.

A typical day
Physical and mental stimulation is important for pets. A typical day with me includes plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get lots of attention and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you’ll know they’re happy and well cared for!
