Animal lover, people person!
Pet care experience
I've loved and cared for animals as long as I can remember. I grew up with 4 dogs, 2 cats, a tortoise, fish, guinea pigs...you name 'em! In my adult life I've helped foster countless dogs, rescued two of my own (a German Shepherd and a Husky), and have volunteered with rescue organizations, encountering and working with dogs of all sizes and levels of difficulty. I have a passion for training my own animals, which comes from a genuine understanding of the way our dogs see the world. Every dog is unique in what motivates them, but they all share a desire to be loved and cared for by their humans. Whether it's walks, hikes, training sessions, games, or just hanging out on the couch, I have the experience to give your dog the care it needs. Whether your dog is reactive, timid, high-energy, or laidback, I'm confident I have the experience to handle their unique energy and disposition. I also care for a senior cat who needs weekly injections and daily medication, so administering medicine with care is also something I'm very familiar with. I look forward to meeting your pets!

Safety, trust & environment
I will care for your pets like I would my own. My own animals have very specific personalities and needs, so I am comfortable adhering to whatever requirements your animals may have. If I'm in your home, it's also important to be respectful of your space, only going into the spaces necessary, and leaving everything as I found it. Trust is perhaps the most important element in a positive experience with a walker or a sitter, and I don't take that lightly! Following your instructions and keeping your pet's safety top of mind is my number one priority.

Availability
I work from home mostly, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets throughout the week and weekends as needed. I care for my own dogs daily, but have no issue working in other pets to their (and my) schedule.
