Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Pet Sitter, Decade Long
What sets me apart is my personal experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve owned and cared for my Schnoodle for the past 10 years, giving me firsthand experience with daily care, exercise, feeding routines, and understanding a dog’s needs. In addition to caring for my own dog, I have pet sat a variety of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your pet is energetic and loves playtime or prefers a calmer environment, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether I am caring for a pet in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, routines, and any special needs to help pets feel as relaxed as possible. I always keep a close eye on pets during walks, outdoor time, and play sessions to ensure their safety. I make sure they have access to fresh water, receive plenty of attention, and get the exercise and enrichment they need. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s property, keeping everything clean, organized, and secure. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide a safe, dependable, and caring environment where pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.

Schedule
Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I live an active lifestyle and already spend time outdoors walking, exercising, and staying active, which makes dog walks and play sessions an easy and enjoyable part of my day. I am organized, reliable, and comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, and care routines provided by pet owners. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make it a priority to be punctual and dependable. Whether your pet needs regular walks, drop in visits, feeding, companionship, or overnight care, I can incorporate those responsibilities into my schedule while ensuring your pet receives the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so pet care is not just a responsibility for me, it’s something I look forward to and take pride in doing well.
