Safety, trust & environment

Every fur baby has their own unique needs, and I believe it's important to meet those. Beyond caring for the necessities of food, water, and potty breaks/litter cleaning, I like to meet the energy and affection levels of your pet. Some pets want non-stop action, and it's great to take them on walks or have at-home playtime, and some pets just want to snuggle, and that's great, too. Realistically, almost everyone will fall somewhere in the middle, and finding that balance is what I'm there for.

Information Dora K. would like to know about your pet

Of course, let me know if there are any dietary restrictions or special accommodations your pet needs. The more specific the instructions, the more important they are for me to know.

A typical day

With cats, I'll let them dictate the level of interaction we have. I'm very happy to help them get their energy out with toys and playtime, but snuggle time and also shy time are absolutely ok. With doggos, we will explore the local neighborhoods and parks! I like letting a dog's nose take the lead to make sure they get the most out of their outside time.

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of dogs of all shapes and sizes for the last 10 years. From small puppies still needing potty training, to senior guys grey around the snout who need meds and very gentle affection, and everything in between, I'm here to give your doggo the type of love and attention they need!

Dora is so sweet and so wonderful with our dog Goldie. Goldie is typically very sensitive to new people but warmed up to Dora so quickly. Dora was so communicative and sent me lots of updates. She took amazing care of Goldie and truly can’t recommend her enough!

Dora was absolutely AMAZING. She was communicative, consistent and went the extra mile to make sure my very young little boy had all the attention and care in the world. She is very reliable and also kept a close eye on my pup when he had some tummy problems. Could not recommend Dora enough!

I have known Dora for 8 years and have seen firsthand, as she expertly took care of her own and other people’s pets. One of the things that we connected over instantly, was our shared love for animals. Dora cares deeply about animals and their wellbeing, is very experienced with pets and is a consistent and reliable professional. One of Dora’s best qualities is intuitively knowing and anticipating what an animal and wants, needs or specifically does not want in any given situation. I have personally experienced the positive impact her calm presence has on the animals around her and how they are naturally drawn towards her and feel safe with her.
