I work from home and can easily make time in the mornings and late afternoons/evenings, so visits are no problem to schedule. I do travel a little for work, but I’ll keep an eye on my availability calendar and input those dates a few weeks out whenever possible.

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a very walkable neighborhood with a parkway, so leashed walks are always an option. There’s also a fenced dog park nearby, so if your dog likes other dogs we can hang out there.

Information Grace D. would like to know about your pet

I would need to know whether the pet is aggressive toward other animals, or toward people (or certain types of people; I've known pets who hate men with beards or people who wear hoods/baseball caps) so I can avoid those things in order to give your pet a relaxing experience. I would also need to know if your pet has any allergies or active infections, and what procedure you follow/medication you use to treat those things, both so that you can have peace of mind and so your pet can be comfortable. I love working with calm dogs (and cats!), but I don't mind an excited puppy/kitten. I would love to work with older pets as well and have had experience doing so with family and friends’ pets. I would like to avoid dogs with overly aggressive behaviors and extreme separation anxiety.

A typical day

I would love to hang out with your cat or dog and play with them/give them attention/thank them for allowing me to be in their presence. If you have a specific dog park or nature reservation that your dog enjoys, please don't hesitate to let me know and I'd be happy to take him or her there! If your dog enjoys rides in the car, they're in luck - I'd love a doggie co-pilot if there is a need for a drive to the park.

Pet care experience

I have experience with (and love) dogs and cats; old and young, big and small. I have experience walking, feeding, and administering meds for both dogs and cats, as well as supervising groups of both large dogs and small/medium dogs. I have four cats, as well as experience caring for cats in pet hotel and cat-sitting settings. I've always valued making new furry friends since I was little, and I can't wait to work with yours!
