Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has grown from a passion into a full-time career. I have over 5 years of experience as an independent pet sitter, along with 3 years of professional experience as a kennel technician and dog bather. During that time, I worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, monitored playgroups, administered medications, cared for puppies and seniors, and helped ensure every pet felt safe, comfortable, and loved while away from home. I am currently enrolled in Penn Foster's Veterinary Technician program, where I'm continuing to expand my knowledge of animal health, behavior, handling, and care. My goal is to provide pet parents with the peace of mind that their pets are being cared for by someone who not only loves animals, but is actively pursuing a career dedicated to their well-being. I provide boarding, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and cat care. Because Rover is my full-time job and my schooling is completed from home, pets in my care receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. They are rarely left alone for extended periods, allowing me to closely monitor their comfort, routines, and individual needs. I have experience caring for dogs from toy breeds to giant breeds, as well as cats, guinea pigs, reptiles, fish, and hermit crabs. While I welcome pets of all ages and personalities, I have a special place in my heart for senior pets, cats, and animals who may need a little extra patience and understanding. I also have experience working with shy, anxious, and nervous pets and understand the importance of earning trust at their pace. Communication is one of the things I value most as a sitter. When your pet is in my care, you can expect regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you never have to wonder how they're doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own family member, and I strive to create a safe, loving, low-stress environment where they can feel comfortable, secure, and genuinely cared for.
