Dedicated animal lover

Pet care experience

Hi there, I am an individual who loves animals and has had all sorts of experience since I was as young as 5 years old who will gladly go for long walks and play fetch! (Or whatever game they prefer) I can't remember a time before my household had animals. I have had dogs of all sizes, both young puppies and senior dogs. I know the patience that they require and am more than happy to provide that love and patience for them. Due to experience with all age ranges, I know how to provide most medications and am good at the consistency these animals need and deserve. I volunteered at a dog shelter for 6 years, so I have worked with just about all types! There's little you can throw at me that I haven't dealt with yet myself. I promise you, if your dog is with me, they will be loved as if they are my own!

Grace was wonderful all around! She took our two husky puppies and treated them as if they were her own. We were thrilled with her multiple daily updates and pictures. We are absolutely going to have Grace watch our pups again!

Grace was so wonderful to my little pup, she went above and beyond taking him to the dog park all the time. Grace and her dog Stella became Louie's best friends. I think a lot of his wonderful behaviors and personality coming through as he grows is because of the care she showed him. Her house is Louie's favorite place to visit. For me, she always made things accommodating, always greeted me with a smile even if I had to book a stay last minute or showed up late. She woke up super early for drop-offs and didn't mind when I had to pick him up in the later hours of the night. Overall she is just a wonderful person, hardworking grad student, and ultimate dog lover. I will definitely use Grace if I need a sitter again in the future!

Our 1 year old mini Aussie, Chloe, loves spending time with Grace. Grace takes her for walks and plays fetch with her and throws the ball over and over again for our crazy pup. Chloe is always very happy when she find out she’s staying with Grace. We are equally happy because she sends up periodic updates and photos. 10/10 would recommend Grace to watch your pup.

Grace used to be my go to Dog caregiver until I moved states. She was so loving and caring with my hound dog that every time Copper saw her at the front door he got excited. They grew a great bond together. She was always prompt and went above and beyond what I expected. She's done everything for me from taking Copper on walks, dog sitting for me, and even was able to make sure he got his medicine at the same time every day when he needed it. I would 100% recommend her to anyone with great faith!
