Pet care experience
A Lifetime of Loving Animals ❤️
Animals have always been a huge part of my life—not just as pets, but as my passion and my career. I’ve spent my entire professional life caring for animals, starting with volunteering at an animal shelter, then working at an aquarium, and now working professionally in veterinary care. I also majored in Biology, which gave me a deeper understanding of animal health, behavior, and wellbeing. I’ve been lucky enough to share my home with all kinds of pets over the years, including dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs, and both freshwater and saltwater fish. I truly love them all! Whether they have fur, fins, scales, or a shell, I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your animals with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own. For me, caring for pets isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve loved and dedicated my life to.

Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in yours, I treat them like family. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow their routine, give them plenty of attention and affection, and make sure they get the walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship they enjoy. I truly love getting to know each pet—their personality, favorite things, and even their funny little quirks. Leaving your pet with someone is a big act of trust, and I don’t take that lightly. My goal is for your pets to feel happy, cared for, and loved, and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Schedule
Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. I can easily fit in walks, feeding, check-ins, medication, and plenty of quality time.

- Before our first meeting or booking, I'd love to know: Basic routine: Feeding times/amounts, potty schedule, and any medications or supplements they're on. Personality and quirks: Are they shy with strangers, food-motivated, reactive to other animals, or prone to specific fears (thunder, vacuums, etc.)? Nothing is too weird! Energy level and exercise needs: How much activity they typically get and what tires them out vs. what overstimulates them. Health and safety info: Any allergies, injuries, mobility issues, or conditions I should watch for, plus vet contact info in case of emergency. Favorite things: Preferred toys, treats, games, and cuddle spots — the fastest way to build trust and have a great visit. Household rules: Off-limit furniture or rooms, leash/harness preferences, crate habits, and anything specific to how the owner likes things done at home. Knowing these details ahead of time helps me tailor each visit to the pet's comfort level and keep them safe, happy, and on their normal routine while their owner is away.
