Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring & Reliable Pet Sitter
Animals have been an important part of my life for many years, and I’ve cared for multiple family dogs, including senior dogs. Through that experience, I’ve learned how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m comfortable handling the everyday things that help pets feel happy and secure—feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, treats, companionship, and following their usual routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely so they can stay as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I also love sending photo updates during visits so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and attentive, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. My goal is not just to stop by, but to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re gone. ❤️ I offer drop-in visits for dogs and small pets such as bunnies, fish, and guinea pigs, and I’m happy to accommodate individual routines and care instructions. 🐱 Please note: I’m moderately allergic to cats, so I’m unable to provide cat care or cat-only drop-ins. If you have a cat in the home along with another type of pet I’ll be caring for, please let me know before booking.

Safety, trust & environment
I take your pet’s safety and comfort seriously. I carefully follow your instructions, routines, and any special care needs you share with me. During each visit, I make sure your pet has what they need, that doors and gates are secure, and that their environment is safe and comfortable. I provide care in your home and do not offer services from my own home. My goal is to create a calm, positive experience for both you and your pet.

I work part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide drop-in visits most weekday afternoons and some weekends. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away.
