Pet care experience

Lifelong animal lover !!

I have grown with both cats and dogs, giving me a deep understanding of their unique needs and personalities. My passion for animals extends beyond my own pets, as I actively volunteer at PAWS, where I help care for and support animals awaiting adoption.

Iris was amazing! She came for a drop in visit on short notice and I was grateful for her flexibility to help out. She was prompt, attentive and communicative. I highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets through drop-in visits or dog walking, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I always follow instructions closely—whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, or giving your pet their favorite kind of playtime or walk.

A typical day

Depending on the pet’s personality and energy level, I’ll take them for walks and play interactive games. My goal is to keep them happy, entertained, and relaxed!

I believe it’s important to get to know your pet ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible. Understanding their routine, preferences, and any special needs helps me create a comfortable and stress-free environment for them. Feel free to share any details about their behavior, likes, dislikes, or medical needs—I’m happy to accommodate!
