Pet care experience

Pet sitter based in Madison, WI!

I have a lifelong love for animals and experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy who needs plenty of exercise or a senior dog who requires extra patience and attention, I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. As a pet caregiver, I prioritize each dog's individual needs, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and supervision. I am comfortable administering basic medications, following specific feeding schedules, and accommodating special care instructions. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, strong communication, and genuine passion for animal well-being. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Whether it's a daily walk, drop-in visit, or extended care, my goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Please let me know of any health conditions and situations where any special attention may be needed. It would also be helpful to know of their comfort level with other people or pets in case we encounter anyone on walks.
