Hi! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up around dogs and adopted my first dog when I was 15. He was a one-year-old rescue with a lot of behavioral challenges. Training and socializing him taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of meeting each dog where they’re at. Because of that experience, I’m confident working with dogs that might be a little stubborn or shy. I enjoy helping them feel safe and understood, and I can offer basic training reinforcement during our walks. I love getting outside, exploring the neighborhood, and making sure your dog has a safe, fun and engaging walk. Right now, I’m not in a position to adopt a dog of my own, but I would love to help you take care of yours. That’s why I’d truly enjoy the opportunity to spend time with your dog and treat them like they’re my own. I’d love to meet your dog and spend some quality time walking, playing, and giving them the care they deserve! :) _____________ About My Care I provide very hands-on care for your pets. It is very important to me to make sure your pets are happy and okay while you are away traveling or going about your day! I will always ask how often you’d like to receive updates and will provide regular text and picture updates depending on your preferences. I also provide a summary behavioral report at the end of the stay so you know exactly how everything went 
 House Sitting Guidelines: • Standard House Sitting: When booking house sitting, please note that the base price is for up to 12h of care with regular needs. For stays longer than 12h, we can look at the 24/7 rate or add a drop-in visit. I am happy to discuss this with you! • Senior or Special Needs Pets: For senior or special needs pets who require high-intensity care, I charge an extra fee (starting at $15) to cover the extra labor for: * Administering medications * Mobility support (stairs, lifting, etc.) * Extra attention for health needs * Pets requiring close monitoring due to age I am happy to learn more about your and your pets' needs and discuss the range of responsibilities with you. Please let me know how I can best support your pets. • 24/7 Constant Care: For pets that cannot be left alone for long periods of time, require round-the-clock attention, or if you’d like me to house sit for a longer period of time, the price is 1.5x the base rate. This applies to situations where, e.g.: * Pets need potty breaks every 2–3 hours * Pets require physical assistance multiple times per day/night * Require me to stay at the home 24/7 without leaving pets alone for more than 1h I’m happy to discuss your and your pets' needs in more detail to find the best plan for your family!
