🐾 Hi! I’m someone who has grown up around animals my entire life — dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, and more — and caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. From a young age, I helped care for family pets, and over the past several years, friends and neighbors have regularly trusted me to care for their pets while they travel or work. In December 2025, after multiple recommendations from friends and neighbors, I decided to join Rover to expand my pet care services within my community. What started as part-time pet sitting has recently grown into expanded availability for boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks. I currently share my home with both dogs and cats, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, supervising interactions, reading body language, and creating a calm, structured environment for animals with different personalities and energy levels. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, comfort levels, behavior changes, medications, and making sure pets feel safe, secure, and cared for while away from their owners. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications with clear instructions from pet parents. I have experience assisting with injectable medications for cats as well and am comfortable following detailed instructions for administration and care. 🐶 What Makes My Care Special: • Lots of playtime, enrichment, walks, cuddle time, and attention • Interactive toys, feeders, chew toys, and activities to keep pets mentally stimulated • Consistent communication and photo updates throughout stays • A calm, loving, low-stress home environment • Care tailored to each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level Because I have both dogs and cats at home, it’s important that pets staying with me are safe around small animals and cats. Friendly or indifferent is perfectly fine, but I cannot accept pets with a history of aggression, high prey drive, or unsafe behavior toward cats or smaller animals. I also like to discuss each dog’s comfort level, socialization, routine, and needs beforehand to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone. I’m also open to house sitting when it’s the right fit. Because I have pets of my own, they would need to come with me for longer stays. They’re friendly, well-socialized, and respectful in the home environment, and I always prioritize maintaining a safe, calm, and comfortable space for everyone involved. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, so I truly aim to treat every animal like family while they’re with me. 🐶🐱💛
