Safety, trust & environment

When I care for your pets in your home, my priority is maintaining the comfort and security of their familiar routine. I believe that pets are happiest when their environment stays consistent, so I focus on following your specific instructions to the letter—whether it’s precise feeding times, favorite walking routes, or just some quality one-on-one enrichment. You can travel with peace of mind knowing your home is respected and your pets are receiving attentive, personalized care right where they feel safest.

Information Kerry W. would like to know about your pet

To make sure your pet has the best experience possible while you're away, here are a few key details that help me provide the highest quality of care: The Routine: What are their usual meal times and portion sizes? Do they have a "must-follow" potty schedule or a favorite walking route? Health & Safety: Are there any allergies, medical conditions, or medications I should be aware of? I also like to know where you keep your preferred local vet's contact information, just in case! Behavioral Quirks: Does your pup have a "best friend" in the neighborhood or someone they’d rather avoid on walks? Knowing if they are shy, energetic, or prone to pulling on the leash helps me keep them happy and safe. Home Access & Comforts: Where are the leashes, waste bags, and treats kept? If there are any "off-limits" rooms or specific alarm instructions, please let me know. Their Favorite Things: Does your pet love a specific toy, a belly rub, or a certain "good boy" treat? I want to make sure they feel loved and pampered while you're gone! I’m looking forward to meeting your furry family members! Feel free to message me with these details or any questions you might have.

A typical day

The bulk of my day is spent on the move. For mid-day walks, I focus on quality exercise and mental stimulation. Whether it’s a brisk walk around the neighborhood or some dedicated playtime in the backyard, I tailor the pace to the dog’s age and energy level. For drop-ins, I’m checking in on puppies or senior dogs who might just need a quick let-out, a medication refill, and a little bit of company. Before I leave any home, I do a quick safety sweep—ensuring doors are locked, alarms are set, and the pet is settled and happy. I always wrap up the visit by sending a quick update and a few photos to the owner. I know how much it means to see a happy face while you’re at work or away, so I make sure those 'pupdates' are a highlight of your day!

Caring & Reliable dog person

Pet care experience

**Now accepting new clients!!** Hi! My name is Kerry, and I’m a huge animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I previously worked as a veterinary assistant at My Pets Vet in Huntington, where I cared for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. My role included feeding, walking, providing comfort to animals recovering from illness or procedures, and assisting vet techs with tasks like safe restraint and blood draws. I’m reliable, caring, and always focused on making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and would love the chance to care for your fur babies! 🐾 Dog Walking Availability: • Mornings: 7:00 AM – 12:00pm • Afternoons/Evenings: 12:00 PM – 8:00 PM 🏠 Drop-In Visits: I’m available to let your dog out and play with them twice a day while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to host pets in my home or stay overnight. Feel free to message me anytime—I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐶🐱

handles my senior dog extremely well and carefully...She even started doing something that i had never thought of.....Kerry is always on time and if ever an issue reaches out right away to let me know even when its the littliest thing. I was very hesitant about trusting my dog with a complete stranger for the first time ever and her caring work eased my concerns right away...will use her again when her situation allows it and definitely would recommend her when she is back to work

Kerry is amazing at taking care of Honey. Since our dog is on the older side now, she’s less active and Kerry will walk her and then sit with her a while just giving her love. She responds to messages within a few minutes, and goes above and beyond. I highly recommend her for your fur babies!
