Pet care experience

Walks & cozy hugs for all animals

I have always had some kind of pet growing up and am so happy with that fact! Whether it be bird, turtle, fish, hamster, or more cats and dogs than I can count I have either owned them or taken care of them. I have experience with all walks of life from fresh to life to the could retire in human years stages. I also have experience in keeping to medication schedules and working around allergies and diets during mealtimes. I also have worked with highly-reactive dogs and am more than willing to put in the time and effort so they are comfortable with me as well as have the skills to help them work through stressful moments. I absolutely cannot wait to meet your pets and help you support them as best I can.

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure that your pet’s safety and care is my top priority. For walks I love sticking to areas around the house the pet is already comfortable in or if you and the pet are ok with it going on a bit of an adventure in my car to a local dog park or walking area. If I am staying at your house I always aim to stick to the animals normal schedule, including mealtimes and walk times, to ensure that they are disrupted as little as possible and still feel safe.

KJ was ideal. On time. Immediately made friends with Brisby and took him for a good walk.

KJ did so great watching our dog Archie while we were at a family wedding. She is very conscientious and did a great job communicating with us. I highly recommend KJ!

Kira did an amazing job caring for my dog. She left my house nice and clean, and even did the sheets. She gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was well loved, while I was away. I’ve already rebooked her. she was super responsive leading up to and during this day as well. I definitely recommend her.

Kira is a fantastic sitter and made it easy for me to not worry about my babies while I was away. She went above and beyond and I am very grateful

Please let me know how your pet reacts to new humans as well as any specific behaviors I should keep an eye out for. I also would love to know about any health issues or allergies so I can make sure everything is safe for your pet!
