Pet care experience

Caring and reliable animal lover!

Hi, I’m Hope! Ever since I was a kid I’ve always been a huge animal lover. I grew up with pets and have cared for lots of different animals throughout my life — dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, snakes, you name it! I currently have a 6 y/o cat named Norah, and enjoyed the last 13 years with my black lab Charlie who passed away in August 2025. ❤️ I’m super comfortable with pets of all kinds of ages and energy levels, so whether it’s long walks and playtime or a short potty break and lots of snuggles, I’ll adapt to whatever they (and you) need and makes them most happy. :) I’ve had lots of experience administering medications / navigating health issues (Charlie had every medical problem in the book), and am also very familiar with needing to be vigilant on walks — she would have eaten legitimately anything off the street if she could have! My MO is this - regardless whether you have a new puppy or a seasoned senior pup, peace of mind is absolutely critical when you allow someone else to take care of your pet. Rest assured that I’ll care for your pet(s) the same way that I do my own — they will always be in careful, loving hands with me!

Hope was so incredibly kind and responsive! She treated my senior dog like her own during his stay with her. She updated us throughout our trip, kept great communication about his daily food/walks, and was very adaptable to our schedule - even when we had flight delays coming home from our trip. We have already rebooked with her again and I’m so glad we found her to watch our doggo.

Hope was fantastic. Very pleased to know our little girl was in good caring hands. We feel trips won’t be as stressed knowing we’ve got Hope taking care of her.

Hope is an amazing sitter! She is very communicative, responsible, kind, and committed providing top notch care. I fully trust her to care for my medically complex senior dog who is on a strict medication schedule! We would happily have our dog stay with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard, but it’s largely patio and plants. I typically walked my own dog several times a day vs letting her explore freely in the back since she liked to get into things (and plants) that she shouldn’t. I’m happy to adapt to whatever you and your pup (or cat) need depending on their energy levels and walk/play preferences!

Pets

A typical day

It all depends on you and your pet! I’m down for any and all activities as long as they have fun and they’re happy (and if they need to be tired out)! Happy to take nice long walks, trips to the dog park or beach, or some quality playtime inside or out. :)

I’m more than happy to accommodate any special pet needs if you have them! I have plenty of experience with senior dogs, puppy care, and health issues — if there’s a need for medication I’ll just want to make sure we connect beforehand and that I have clear directions for what’s needed. Other things that are important for me to be aware of - if they react to certain situations / people / environments, if they have a favorite toy or activity, if they’re allowed to have treats (and if so what kinds), and what their normal habits are like!
