Fun Walks, & Loving Pet Care
I am a lifelong dog and cat lover with over 10 years of experience caring for pets through dog walking, overnight stays, and helping friends and family. I grew up in a multi-dog household with breeds ranging from Chihuahuas to German Shepherds, so I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. My priority is always making sure each pet feels safe, cared for, and genuinely happy. I focus on both physical exercise and mental stimulation to give pets a balanced and enriching experience. I currently care for my Husky mix, Suki, who I adopted from a shelter at age 2. She came to me very anxious, and through consistent structure and training support, I’ve learned how to work with high-energy and anxious dogs in a patient and effective way. Living in an apartment, I’m used to providing multiple long walks per day and maintaining an active routine. I believe a well-exercised dog is a happy dog, and I always tailor care to each pet’s needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being in both my home and my client’s home. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure pets stay on their normal routine as much as possible to reduce stress. During walks and outings, I stay attentive at all times and adjust activity based on the pet’s energy level, age, and temperament. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities, from small breeds to large, high-energy dogs. In my care, pets receive structured exercise, including multiple walks when needed, as well as time for play and mental stimulation. I always ensure pets are properly leashed and supervised outside the home. I also have experience with anxious dogs through my own Husky mix, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a calm environment. I aim to provide care that makes pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and maintain a clean, secure environment for the pet. My goal is to provide reliable, trustworthy care so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Schedule
I work as a substitute teacher most weekdays from approximately 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM. I am available for early morning care, evening walks, drop-ins, and overnight house sitting on weekdays. I also have more flexibility on weekends and can accommodate extended stays, longer walks, and additional visits as needed. I make sure any pet care commitments are planned responsibly around my teaching schedule so pets always receive reliable, consistent care and attention.
