Highlights
Pet care experience
Playtime Pro & Belly Rub Enthusiast
Your pup’s new favorite walking buddy! 🐾 With years of hands-on experience and a true passion for animals, I bring calm, confident energy to every visit. I grew up surrounded by pets and know how to read animal behavior, so whether your dog is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I tailor to their needs. I show up on time, treat your home with respect, and make sure your pet gets the love and attention they deserve, every single visit.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. During visits, I follow any specific instructions you provide and make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar space. Whether it’s refreshing water bowls, giving a few extra belly rubs, or tidying up after a walk, I always go the extra mile to make sure both you and your pet feel confident and cared for.

Schedule
I work full-time locally, which means I’m never far from home and can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for morning and early evening walks, and I can always swing by for drop-ins during my lunch break. My schedule is consistent, and I pride myself on being reliable and communicative. Whether your pet needs a quick midday check-in or some after-work playtime, I’m flexible and always happy to help. I treat every visit with care, showing up on time and making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-exercised!

- It’s important for me to know your pet’s personality, routine, and any special needs they may have. Things like: Do they get nervous around strangers or other animals? Are there any health issues, medications, or allergies I should be aware of? How do they behave on walks—are they a puller, a sniffer, or more of a stroller? I also like to know their favorite toys, treats, and any commands they know. The more I know, the better I can make each visit safe, smooth, and enjoyable for your pet!
