Hannah can care for
Availability
I’ve just completed a Bachelors of Science in Biology, and I’m interviewing for Doctorate of Pharmacy programs currently. I am looking for purpose this summer, and knew that being a trustworthy resource for fellow pet owners would benefit both parties. In this heat, I currently walk my own dog three times daily and play frisbee morning and evening when it cools off a bit to work out that energy. I have dog training every Thursday at 6:00 PM to continue to do better for her and the pets I watch. I am mostly open throughout the day to be available as needed.

About Hannah H.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, structured, and attentive environment tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. I prioritize safety by closely monitoring pets during walks, feeding, play, and rest, while following all owner instructions regarding medications, training, and behavioral needs. I keep spaces clean, secure, and free of hazards, and I pay close attention to stress signals or changes in behavior. My continued training classes for my own dog has strengthened my ability to remain patient, detail-oriented, and responsive to each animal’s individual needs. Overnight House Sitting Policy To provide the best care for both your pets and my own, I do not stay overnight in clients’ homes. During house sitting, I’ll be there for your pets’ evening routine, including dinner, playtime, cuddles and a final bedtime potty break before I head home. I’ll return approximately 8 hours later for their morning potty break, breakfast and morning routine. Your pets will still receive plenty of love, attention and consistent care throughout the day, and I’ll always communicate with you through updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. This schedule allows me to be there for my own dog and family while continuing to provide dependable, attentive care for yours.
Information Hannah H. would like to know about your pet
I’ll review your pet’s profile carefully and ask about anything needing clarification, including routines, medications, behaviors, triggers and preferences to provide the best care possible.
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor each visit to their routine. I’ll happily follow your requests while respecting your dog’s comfort level and body language.

Calm, Caring & Experienced
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of all pets for my family, immediate and extended, for the past 15 years! Within the last 2, I’ve adopted my own border collie, Pebble. I’ve gone through multiple training centers with a high energy, high anxiety herding dog to give her a job and help me understand her needs better. I grew up with breeds that were family oriented, and hadn’t realized the special world of working dogs. On this journey I’ve come to sympathize with the frustrations we face trying to find care for our very, very particular fur-babies. I have come to be a resource for those within my community that have dogs just like my own, and need a different level of care when finding a sitter. I hope that my experience with outgoing family dogs, and those with higher maintenance can be a resource for you as well.
