WFH Sitter: Fenced Yard + Dog Lover

I treat every pup like they’re my own with lots of love, patience, playtime, and attention to their unique routines. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior snugglers who just want a calm, cozy vibe. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or sticking to specific care instructions, I’ve got it covered.

We will be having Kaitlin watch Disco again! Kaitlin took great care of Disco and shared plenty of updates and photos, which we appreciated. Disco got along great with Kaitlin’s dog and enjoyed the extra playmate and cuddles.

This was my first time using a dog sitter for Darwin, and it went so smoothly with Kaitlin. She was great with Darwin, threw him his frisbee, and made a new friend in her dog Ramsey.

Kaitlin took great care of my girl while I was gone for 11 days. Frequent pics and updates helped me feel comfortable that she was in a safe space and happy.

Schedule

As a fully remote employee, I’m home for the majority of the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and supervision. I stick to a daily routine and enjoy staying active, so keeping pets engaged is a natural part of my day. Mornings typically include a walk and time to settle in, followed by a relaxed workday with regular breaks for play, potty time, and check-ins.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is clean, dog friendly, and a calm, low-stress space. The backyard is secure, allowing dogs to safely move between inside and outside throughout the day. I closely follow each dog’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and care instructions. If your dog is used to being on the furniture or sleeping in the bed at home, they’re welcome to do the same here. My goal is to make them feel comfortable and at home. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands.

Pets

A typical day

I work from home, so your dog gets consistent company and care throughout the day. We start the morning with a walk, then settle into a relaxed routine while I work nearby. The back door stays open, giving dogs the freedom to roam safely between inside and outside, stretch their legs, explore, or sunbathe whenever they want. I take breaks for playtime, check-ins, and cuddles, and I’m always close to keep an eye on things. Evenings are quiet and cozy, focused on helping your dog feel comfortable, secure, and right at home.

I like to learn as much as possible to make sure they’re comfortable and safe. Helpful details include their daily routine, feeding schedule, energy level, and any quirks or preferences they have. It’s also important to know about leash behavior, recall, interactions with other dogs, and any anxiety triggers. Please let me know about medical needs, medications, allergies, or special care instructions, as well as what helps your pet feel most at home.
