Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover, multiple 30 minute walks
I've been caring for dogs my entire life and understand that every pet deserves compassionate, reliable, and attentive care. When your dog is with me, I'll treat them like a member of my own family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment where they feel happy and well cared for. Every dog in my care receives daily walks, regular potty breaks, plenty of exercise, and personalized attention based on their individual needs and energy level. I work full-time, but I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. At home, I provide enrichment through playtime, interactive toys, treats (with owner approval), and lots of affection. My experience extends beyond personal pet ownership. During the summers, I volunteered at Two Ponds Pet Lodge, where I assisted with daily care, monitored dogs' well-being, and administered medications when needed. This experience strengthened my ability to care for dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and needs. As someone who genuinely loves animals, I take pride in providing dependable, nurturing care and giving pet owners peace of mind while they're away. I also have easy access to a nearby nature trail and dog park, giving dogs plenty of opportunities for safe exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member and providing the loving, dependable care they deserve.

Schedule
Although I work full-time, I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize the dogs in my care. My own pup is at the center of my daily routine, and I provide the same level of love, attention, and care to every dog I welcome into my home. I believe dogs are family, and they deserve to be treated with kindness, patience, and respect. Whether it's playtime, exercise, enrichment, or quiet cuddle time, I strive to create a balanced, loving environment where every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. While your pup is with me, they'll be treated as if they were my own, and I'll do everything I can to ensure they feel happy, secure, and loved.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
While I don't have a fenced backyard, I am committed to ensuring every dog in my care receives plenty of daily exercise, mental stimulation, and outdoor time. I believe regular physical activity is essential for a dog's overall health and well-being, especially for growing puppies and high-energy breeds. Through walks, playtime, and enrichment activities, I'll make sure your pup stays active, engaged, and happy. I do have a crate available if needed; however, I do not routinely crate dogs unless requested by the owner. If your dog is crate-trained or finds comfort in their crate, I'm happy to incorporate that into their routine to help them feel safe and secure while in my care.

A typical day
I have a very energetic Pomsky, so staying active is part of our daily routine. We regularly enjoy car rides, walks along local nature trails, and visits to the nearby dog park. Daily exercise is a priority, and I typically provide at least a 30-minute walk, tailored to each dog's age, energy level, and individual needs. On especially hot days, I prioritize your dog's safety by choosing cooler activities, such as a stroll through our local pet-friendly stores, including Petco, instead of extended time outdoors. I also enjoy providing mental enrichment through frozen treats, lick mats, puzzle toys, and safe chew toys to keep dogs engaged, stimulated, and happy.
