Grace was wonderful! Very communicative and flexible. Our dog who can be a bit anxious settled right in and even didn’t want to leave her at the end of the stay.

Grace took care of Sam when a last minute work trip popped up. She went above and beyond with communication and updates, plus was flexible with my pickup time. Sam came home happy! Grateful!

Grace was excellent!! She made sure our dog was comfortable entertained and did a great job communicating. We’ll be using her services again. Additionally, she was very accommodating to our pickup time since we hit some traffic on our way to pick up Riley.

Grace was great taking care of Zeus. She stayed in communication with updates and pictures and I could tell Zeus was having a great time and well taken care of. Will definitely look for Grace to take care of our pup again and would highly recommend.

Grace was absolutely amazing. She was super warm and gentle with Jewel, who does not love new people, and incredibly responsive and flexible when I needed to change my plans last minute. Could not recommend more!

Grace did an amazing job watching my 2 dogs! She went above and beyond taking care of them. And best of all, it seemed like she really enjoyed spending time with them which is always comforting when you’re away from your pets! She is a true dog lover and I would recommend her to anyone :)

In my spare time, I love having a furry companion nearby. If you're looking for quality, loving, and reliable care for your pet, I'm the perfect sitter! I have over 20 years of experience and am a Rover-certified "Star Sitter."

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I maintain a calm and structured setting with close supervision, positive reinforcement, and attention to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions carefully, ensuring pets feel secure and loved while their families are away. I also maintain open communication with clients, providing updates and photos to build trust and peace of mind.

A typical day

I enjoy providing pets with mental and physical stimulation. Together, we will explore the neighborhood and visit dog-friendly places. I enjoy making your pet apart of my daily routine, whether that’s visiting a cafe or running errands.
