Safety, trust & environment

Cautiousness is very important for the animals safety! I will go out of my way to make sure your pet is secure & in a safe environment. I know a lot about crate training, leash training, & recall!

Information Grace N. would like to know about your pet

I am able to work for any dogs if they have special needs or different behaviors, regardless of their breed, age, or size. It is easy for me to be aware of your dogs' social standards as I must know whether to allow them to interact socially or not.

A typical day

If your dogs are active and friendly with other dogs, I am more than happy to take them to the park so they can run around and interact socially. If your dog likes to swim, I very much enjoy the ocean, lake, or pool and would always love to take them for a good swim on a hot day during your summer vacations. For dogs that are older or not as active for any reason, I am happy to relax inside the house and watch TV while spending time with the dogs.

experienced sitter & walker

Pet care experience

I knew I would have a career in this field since I was just 10 years old. I am very experienced with house sitting so I am trusted by my clients to keep the pet(s) safe and happy in the comfort of their home while you are on vacation or in need of my help! I experienced volunteer work in pet adoption centers in high school. I began walking & doing overnight care in 2018. Now I am studying for a degree in Animal Science & Professional Pet Care. I have been also working as a dog groomer since January of 2022. I am good with any dog no matter their size, I have cared for dogs from the age of 4 months to 15 years as if they were my own.

Grace was incredible. I reached out to her for a last-minute sit when I had to undertake some emergency travel. She was extremely responsive, and took good care of the house and of my 2.5 year old mixed breed dog Brody. Grace sent me regular updates including photos and videos, and Brody had a wonderful time with her. Would definitely recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs, and look forward to possibly working with her again in the future!
