Highlights
Pet care experience
Four legged friends are my favorite
Animals have always been at the center of my life! My mom worked as a lead veterinary technician and also ran a pet sitting business, which meant I grew up surrounded by animals and learning how to care for them properly. Over time, I took over her pet sitting business and have continued building it on my own. I also worked in the veterinary industry myself, where I gained hands-on experience with everything from administering medications to caring for senior and special-needs pets. Today, I provide trusted in-home pet sitting for families who want peace of mind while they’re away. I treat every pet like my own—whether that’s daily walks, playtime in the yard, cuddles on the couch, or keeping up with special care routines. I currently live in a two-bedroom, one-bath apartment with a backyard area and I’m close to a beautiful park that I love walking dogs to for exercise and fresh air. With my background in veterinary medicine, I’m confident handling oral and injected medications, senior care, and special needs. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and healthy, and I go above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable in their home environment. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.

Schedule
I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 8–4, but I make pet care a big part of my life outside those hours. I’m available for morning and evening walks, drop-in visits, and weekend care. For in-home pet sitting, I make sure your pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise when I’m with them. I also have my mom who taught me all my veterinary knowledge right now the street who often stops in to give love and assist with potty breaks while I’m working if needed :)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every pet like family and focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. With a background in veterinary medicine and years of pet sitting experience, I’m confident handling everything from energetic puppies to senior or special-needs pets. I live in a two-bedroom apartment with a backyard area and I’m close to a park, which makes walks and outdoor playtime easy and enjoyable. Whether at my home or yours, I provide a loving, reliable environment you can trust.
A typical day
A typical day with me includes plenty of love, exercise, and attention. I enjoy taking dogs on walks through my neighborhood or to the nearby park for fresh air and playtime. At home, I have a backyard space that’s perfect for potty breaks or stretching their legs. If a pup loves to run, I’ll happily jog with them! My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and engaged, whether that’s with exercise, play, or just quiet companionship.
