Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable Experience for Your Family
Hi! I’m Haley, and animals have always been at the heart of my life. I share my home with three wonderful dogs—each with their own personality, special needs, and routines—which has taught me the importance of patience, positive reinforcement training, and gentle care. I have hands-on experience with: • Administering daily medications, allergy treatments, and special diets • Puppy training (basic commands, “leave it,” “stay,” leash work, and enrichment games) • Providing enrichment and mental stimulation (treat puzzles, scent games, and structured play) • Managing multi-dog households, including dogs with anxiety or reactivity • Prioritizing safety indoors and outdoors, including secure yard setups and supervised play I understand every pet is unique, and I’m dedicated to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved—whether it’s during a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Okay, I don’t usually write reviews like this, but Haley is not your average sitter. She didn’t just watch my three dogs—she got them. Like, on a soul level. We’ve got a senior pug with meds and a complicated bedtime routine, a high-energy shepherd mix who thinks she’s a circus performer, and a bossy little terrier who tries to run the house. Haley managed them all like a total pro, but without being too formal—she was just so chill and confident that my dogs immediately trusted her (and so did I). She sent me updates that were actually fun to read, not just the typical “they’re doing great” stuff. Photos, little stories, even a video of my shepherd trying to “help” fold laundry (spoiler: she did not help). I swear my dogs came back better behaved than when I left. Bonus points: she remembered that the pug likes her blanket heated in the microwave before bed. Who even thinks of that?? Haley does. Book her. Unless it’s the weekend I need her. Then please don’t. 😂
Haley was fantastic with our two dogs! She really took the time to get to know them and made sure each one got exactly what they needed—whether it was long walks for our energetic Lab or some gentle playtime for our older Bully. What really stood out was how calm and confident she was, even with big, strong breeds. It made us feel completely at ease while we were away. The dogs were happy and settled when we got back, and the house looked great too. We’d definitely trust Haley again.
Haley did a great job checking in on our cats! It was a pretty easy visit, but she still made sure they were fed, had fresh water, and got some attention. We really appreciated the updates and knowing someone reliable was stopping by. Would definitely book again!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Haley was amazing with Bailey! From the start, she made us both feel comfortable and kept me updated the whole time. Bailey can be a little shy at first, but she warmed right up to her, which says so much. When I came home, she was happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. I really appreciated Haley’s kindness, reliability, and the peace of mind she gave me while I was away. Highly recommend!
Haley was absolutely wonderful! She cared for our pets as if they were her own, giving them so much love and attention. We really appreciated her reliability, frequent updates, and the thoughtful little details—like making sure everyone got their favorite toys and sticking to their routines. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a tidy house. We’d highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly dedicated to animal care. Thank you so much, Haley!

Schedule
I work every other week at Joybound until about 3 PM, which means I’m available mornings, evenings, and most weekends that week. On my off weeks, I’m fairly flexible and can offer daytime care, midday walks, and extra availability for drop-ins or house sitting. This rotating schedule helps me balance consistent, quality care and makes it easier to accommodate both regular and last-minute requests!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
🏡 In my home: • I provide a calm, pet-safe environment with secure areas (indoors & yard). • Pets get daily enrichment like treat puzzles, scent games, and toy play to keep them mentally and physically engaged. • I stick to each pet’s feeding schedule and any medication routines they have. • Walks, potty breaks, and cuddle time are balanced around your pet’s normal routine so they feel at home. • Pets have cozy spots for rest, and I supervise interactions if there are multiple pets, making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. 🏠 In your home: • I keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible — same walk routes, feeding times, play sessions, and sleep spots. • I follow your care instructions closely, including special diets, medications, or training rules you use. • I keep your home tidy: washing bowls, picking up waste, watering plants if requested, and bringing in mail/packages. • I give updates and photos so you can see your pets are happy and relaxed while you’re away.
Pets
A typical day
🐾 I love keeping pets happy and engaged! Depending on their personality and what they enjoy, I’ll: play tug or fetch, explore new smells on walks, do puzzle feeders or treat “hide & seek,” practice fun training games, or just have cozy cuddle and brushing time. For cats, I add wand toy play, window bird watching, and gentle petting (only if they’re into it!). My goal is always to match each pet’s energy and make sure they feel loved and entertained!
