I’ve been around animals my entire life and truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities. I grew up with a Golden Retriever who I cared for throughout my teens and university. She had a very gentle, easygoing temperament, which gave me a strong foundation in daily care, routines, and building trust with dogs. My current dog is a rescue who was found living in a garbage dump, had been shot, and came with many complex behavioural and medical needs. He is leash reactive and not comfortable with other dogs, which has required a lot of training, patience, and consistency. Because of this, I’ve become very confident reading dog body language, managing reactivity, and staying calm and in control on walks. We’re now able to walk comfortably around other dogs, but I always stay attentive and proactive to make sure he feels safe and supported. We are best friends and I am so proud of his progress. I also have lifelong experience with cats, having grown up with one and currently caring for two. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter care, and giving cats the space they need while still building trust. I treat every pet like my own and understand that some need extra patience, structure, or attention. Whether your dog is easygoing or needs a bit more support, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
