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.
Reviews
Grace was flexible and took wonderful care of our home and pets. We came home to a clean house and clean sheets! And most importantly happy, healthy fur babies after 2 weeks away. She even shoveled a bit!
Grace was a great drop in provider for our cat over the holidays. Highly recommended!
I can’t say enough about Grace. She stayed in our house during a heatwave with AC only in the bedroom. She never complained and brushed off my concerns for her comfort. She’s my hero. Will definitely call her again unless she’s sick of us😬
Grace took care of my house, 2 cats and my dog for 2 weeks. She gave the dog medication every day for an infection that came up the day before we left. She also coordinated with a new housecleaner who started the week we were away! She communicated throughout and sent pictures and alerted me to a possible plumbing issue and recommended a plumber in case I needed one.

Skills
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.
