Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work a consistent 7–3 schedule, which gives me plenty of time to stop by before or after work. I love staying active, and walking dogs is genuinely something I look forward to—it’s the best way to unwind after a shift or start the day with good energy. Having my own dog, who could play fetch endlessly, keeps me used to a lively pace, and caring for pets feels less like a task and more like a rewarding part of my day.

Safety, trust & environment
Living with a senior dog for the last few years of my life, I give my dog the necessary medication, a special diet, and walks every day. I would take my dog on runs and insure she would stay active as well. For my cats, I make sure they have enough food, water, and snacks of course giving them plenty of attention and play time. I will make sure to treat all of your pets with appropriate care and instructions.
Information Ella Z. would like to know about your pet
It is important to know if your dog has any medical issues, health problems, or if they are aggressive with other pets. I need to be aware of. Additionally, if the owner would like me to walk with the dog in a certain place or do a specific activity with them. Any special requests I am happy to accommodate!
A typical day
I would find a park nearby or come to a park closer to my house to walk the dog or let them play. I could play fetch, go on a run with a dog to give them so needed exercise, or simply go on a relaxing with them. I would also talk with the owner before the walk to discuss any special activities or games your dog likes to play!

Pet care experience
Caring for both cats and dogs has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats and have raised everything from tiny, week‑old kittens to a sweet 16‑year‑old senior, and now I share my home with two cats who are truly the loves of my life. On the dog side, my first puggle meant the world to me, and since then I’ve cared for a playful Pitbull and now a fetch‑obsessed pup who keeps me active and laughing. Because I’ve lived with such a wide range of personalities—energetic runners, clever food‑sneakers, gentle seniors, and even dogs who can be reactive—I’m comfortable adapting to whatever a pet needs. With my steady 7–3 work schedule, I have plenty of time before or after work to give pets attention, walks, and care, and honestly, spending time with animals is something I look forward to every day.
