Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly, loving, animal enthusiast
Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver working from home as a freelance graphic designer. My flexible schedule allows me to give your pets all the attention, care, and companionship they need throughout the day. I have years of hands-on experience with pets of all sizes and temperaments—including high-energy pups, cuddle bugs, and those who need a little extra TLC. I previously studied veterinary technology, so I’m comfortable with a variety of needs and love connecting with animals on a deeper level. My husband (also an animal lover who works from home) and I live in a cozy, pet-friendly townhome with a large green space right out back—perfect for walks, playtime, and fresh air. I also enjoy taking my clients’ dogs to Peace Mound Park or the Hollywood Dog Beach for a change of scenery and some extra enrichment. I also love caring for cats and have years of experience with them, both personally and professionally. I had a cat of my own for many years—she was truly my best friend—so I understand just how special the bond between cats and their people can be. I’m patient, gentle, and always respectful of their unique personality. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, medication (if needed), and giving cats the space or affection they prefer. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or a cozy nap, your pet will be treated like part of the family from the moment they arrive. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I’d love to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾

Ratings and reviews
Isabella took such wonderful care of our puppy, shared daily photos and updates throughout the visit, and was very responsive to any queries. 10/10 absolutely amazing!
Isabella did a fantastic job. She kept me in the loop and provided outstanding care for my puppy who just had a surgical procedure. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos and I came home to a happy healthy puppy.
Isabella is amazing! This was my second time booking her. My pup unexpectedly got her period and Isabella still accepted Penny and consistently changed her doggy diapers. Isabella provided a loving home for my pup while I was away and gave me updates as well as pictures of my girl, showing that she was living her best life. Isabella is an amazing dog sitter with a ton of patience. Will definitely keep booking with her.
Isabella took care of my Lily and Luna for a week vacation. It was last minute, and she was very accommodating and understanding. I was super nervous at first as this was the first time I used Rover, but she was very reassuring. I quickly felt comfortable that they were under her care. I got regular updates and photos that showed how happy my girls were. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Thank you so much. I’ll definitely be booking with them again! 💗
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Highly Recommend Isabella! From the moment we arrived, Isabella was incredibly warm and welcoming — it instantly put both me and my dog at ease. Throughout the stay, she kept me updated with frequent messages, adorable photos, and videos that showed just how happy and relaxed my dog was in her care. What truly stood out was how attentive she was to my dog’s needs. My pup is a very picky eater and wasn’t eating much on the first day. Isabella went above and beyond by gently hand-feeding her a few bites to encourage her to eat — a small act that meant so much and showed how dedicated she is. Seeing my dog comfortable, happy, and well-cared-for gave me such peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Isabella again and recommend her to all fellow dog parents looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!
Isabella was wonderful with our 2 pups. She took excellent care and sent us many pictures while we were away. She gave them extra love and comfort during the fireworks for Fourth of July weekend knowing they get a bit uneasy. Would definitely book again :)

Schedule
I work from home as a freelance graphic designer, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to be fully present with the pets I care for. Whether it’s taking regular walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions, I easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Caring for animals brings me joy while working from home and i love the companionship they provide.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I mostly care for pets in my own home, which is safe, pet-friendly, and peaceful. I create a calm environment, follow their routines closely, and always prioritize their comfort, health, and happiness. I give updates to owners regularly for peace of mind and carefully follow any special instructions to ensure a great experience for both pet and parent.
A typical day
I live in a quiet area with lots of green space for walks and playtime. Depending on the pet’s energy and temperament, we’ll enjoy time outdoors, explore nearby parks, or even do a dog beach trip (with owner approval), lots of love, attention, and downtime at home so they feel relaxed. I can also provide warm baths for longer stays :)
