Fun and loving pet care specialist

Pet care experience

I understand that your pet is very special to you and that you are seeking top quality service for your fur-child. I have been caring for pets since I was a kid and I'm vigilant in keeping people's pets safe and happy. I understand the needs and wants of dogs better than most people and work with owners to find what each dog needs and enjoys. I have been working with the same dog trainer for over two years, learning new ways to socialize dogs with new experiences as well as how to keep them safe and calm in unknown situations. I have experience with all age groups from puppies to senior age dogs as well as special needs dogs. I will make your dog's experience enjoyable and fun while maintaining safety and health.

Hope took care of our dog Jack recently, as well as house sat for us. She was amazing! Before leaving for our trip, Hope made arrangements to stop by in order to meet Jack. From the outset, we could tell that she was gentle and caring. She was keen on learning his routine, and any extra needs he might have while we were away. During her stay, Hope was able to sense when she needed to adjust Jack’s care based on his sense of comfort. When we returned home, Jack was content and happy. I highly recommend Hope for any of your pet/house sitting needs – your pet will thank you!

Hope did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats. She came by twice a day for over a week during the holidays to feed our guys, give one his daily pill, and spend some quality time with them. The pictures she sent us of her visits were proof of what good care she took of our cats and of how much they loved her!

Hope is awesome. She walked my dogs every work day and fed my cat when I left town. She is a compassionate person, reliable and communicative. I highly recommend Hope for your furry families.

Information Hope A. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with a variety of breeds from Jack Russell Terriers, Australian Shepherds, Border Collies, Siberian Huskies, and many mixed breeds. I am more comfortable with medium to large size dogs as I have more experience with them. Prior to visits and stays, I will consult with each owner to discover the personality and needs of each dog such as what frightens them or what kind of games they like to play to ensure that I can give each pet a superior visit or stay experience.

A typical day

Walks are essential to keeping each pup healthy and happy! Depending on each pup, hiking natural trails in the surrounding areas such as Horizons Park, C.G. Hill Memorial Park and other leashed area hiking opportunities. I can guarantee fun games such as fetch, tug-of-war, or brain teaser games during my visits. Also, I ensure each pup has refreshed necessities such as water and a neat bed prior to my end of the visit or stay.
