Availability

I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, as well as last-minute bookings when needed. Because I’m home-based, I can give pets plenty of attention, stick to their routine, and be consistent with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m happy to work around your pet’s specific schedule to make sure they stay comfortable and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences your pet has. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away, and I always respect your home by keeping things clean and tidy. I also provide regular photo and update messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Every pet is different, so I take the time to adjust to their personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or more calm and independent.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet lover who has been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, so I always take the time to learn what works best for them. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, lots of attention, or a calm and relaxed environment, I’m happy to adjust to their needs to make sure they are happy and stress-free. I also have a dog of my own—an Australian Shepherd—so I’m very comfortable handling energetic dogs and making sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them like part of the family. I’m currently home full-time, which allows me to be very flexible with scheduling. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I can often accept last-minute bookings. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow their normal routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special instructions you provide so they feel comfortable and secure. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priority, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, care, and pictures while you’re away.
