Availability
I am currently a university student, home for summer break for the month of June. I love walking, running, and hiking, especially with a friend! Transportation is not an issue as I have my own car. My schedule is wide open since I'm home from school, and I will do my very best to keep clients updated on any changes to my schedule.

Please let me know if your animal has higher energy, a diet/exercise plan, behavioral problems, special needs, or medications.

A typical day
I love to interact with dogs to keep them stimulated and happy. I can accommodate dogs of any age and energy level. For my energetic ones, I am more than happy to go on multiple walks per day and play with them as much as they like. If yours is a bit more mellow, I'm perfectly fine with taking them on a calm 30 minute walk with some cuddles at the end.

Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Harper, I'm 19 years old, and I've been surrounded by dogs my whole life! Shelby was my childhood dog, a sweet old super mutt who I fed every morning as a 5 year old. My second dog was Noodles, the crankiest little rescue poodle mix I've ever seen, who passed in early 2025. Even though I've only had two dogs of my own, I have always been surrounded by families with pets, allowing me to grow up getting doggy kisses from all around my friend and family circle. I started pet sitting as soon as I was old enough to hold a leash without being dragged by the dog. Since the age of 12 I have sat for golden retrievers, pitties, german shepherds, doodles, dachshunds, and more (including cats!). There is no breed that I do not love with my whole heart; I'll take any in! I have considerable experience with uncooperative dogs both on and off leash, so whether you have an untrained puppy or a stubborn senior, I promise that I have way more patience with them than they have with me! Additionally, while I am not a licensed trainer, I do have some experience with training simple commands (sit, stay, heel, etc). I am also available for senior dogs, as I was a primary caretaker for Noodles in his old age (13-16 yrs), during which he dealt with hearing loss, joint pain, and medication prescriptions (which I would give him).
Reviews

An absolute lifesaver and the most dedicated sitter you could ever find! I cannot thank Harper enough for the incredible love and care they showed my cat, Snowy, during a very difficult medical situation. When I needed someone the most, Harper completely stepped up. They didn't just do the basic check-ins; they actually took Snowy to her follow-up vet appointments and stayed with her at the ER for long hours, making sure she was safe and never alone. Snowy required a strict medication schedule, and Harper was so patient, meticulous, and dedicated to making sure she got her medicine on time every single day. Their daily updates gave me immense peace of mind during an incredibly stressful time. Finding a sitter who genuinely treats your pet like family is rare, but Harper went above and beyond in every possible way. I am forever grateful and highly, highly recommend !

Harper goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of animals! She treats them like her own :) so grateful she was about to take care of my puppy


Harper took such exceptional care of our two small dogs, Harry and Zoe. I would absolutely trust Harper to take care of our dogs again - it was clear that they were well taken care of & got lots of exercise, cuddles & love. Harper also did a great job of managing Zoe's special diet. Thanks so much, Harper!

She was excellent! My puppy came back home and took a long nap.
