I currently work a full-time remote role, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day - especially since there's no time that I have to clock in or out, and because my lunch is flexible as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I’m able to take breaks to play, go on walks, do potty breaks, and give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day (and will do so happily, I might add :)) I’m a morning person and usually up by around 6:30 AM, but I’m happy to accommodate earlier mornings or later nights, depending on your needs. My workout schedule is also very flexible, so I can easily adjust it around your pet’s routine. Weekends, especially Friday and Saturday nights, can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and will always keep you informed ahead of time. Overall, I’m very flexible and intentional about making sure your pet’s care fits seamlessly into my day, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever schedule works best for you.

Safety, trust & environment

At the moment, I’m not able to board pets in my home since I live with my family. I also genuinely believe most pets feel safest and most relaxed in their own environment, surrounded by their familiar space, scents, and favorite spots. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on being calm, patient, and attentive to each animal’s personality. I like to take the time to understand their behavior and build trust naturally, especially through nonverbal cues, so they feel comfortable at their own pace. I’ve learned that some pets warm up immediately, while others need a little time, and I’m completely okay with both. At the same time, I always prioritize following the owner’s routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific instructions, I know you understand your pet best, and I want their care to feel consistent and familiar while you’re away. I’m also very mindful of safety and respect within your home. I make sure doors and gates are secure, double check instructions, and keep a close eye on your pet at all times. I’ll also keep you updated with messages, photos, and little check ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and reassuring environment where your pet feels comfortable and you feel completely at ease.

Pet care experience

I’ve always been the kind of person who will stop mid-conversation to look at a dog or, honestly, any animal. I love animals with my whole heart, and I’ve somehow ended up rescuing both my family dog, Romee, and my boyfriend’s cat, who is very much mine now, Monkee, after they were wandering around lost for days. I housed about 4 parakeets for 2 weeks as well; I’ve even cared for an injured squirrel for a bit, so I definitely have a soft spot for animals that need extra care and attention. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet or to worry that they’re not getting the attention they deserve. I recently started working remotely, which means I have the time to actually be present with your pet, not just quick visits, but real attention, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m very patient, detail-oriented, and good at reading animals’ behavior. If your pet is shy, anxious, or just a little particular, I’m more than happy to take the time to earn their trust. I’m also big on updates, so you’ll definitely be getting photos, videos, and probably a few messages about something cute or funny they did. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I’m currently completing my Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid certification as well. Taking care of animals genuinely makes me happy. It’s a win for your pet and, honestly, a win for me too. I know that my official experience is lower than some, but I have so much love to give, and I would be so grateful to meet more cute fuzzy friends!
