Pet care experience

Dependable Pet Care/Photo Updates

I've been caring for pets for many years and genuinely love spending time with animals. I've house sat and cared for dogs for friends and family, and I've also helped raise and care for newborn English Bulldog puppies, giving me experience with young puppies that require extra attention and patience. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I'll make sure they receive the care, attention, and love they deserve while you're away. I've owned several dogs throughout my life and have always had a special place in my heart for cats, too. What sets me apart is that I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and your home. I'm dependable, organized, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for.

Schedule

As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, and I have the availability to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy getting out of the house to care for pets, and I understand how important consistency is while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they need. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under my supervision. I also have a friendly Golden Retriever who enjoys other dogs, but I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. If your dog prefers their own space, I'm happy to keep them separated or crate my dog as needed to ensure everyone feels safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in your home, I'll respect your routines and instructions so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise or playtime, clean-up as needed, and lots of love while you're away. I'll also keep your home secure and send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day in our home is relaxed, loving, and centered around making your pet feel comfortable. We start the day with a potty break, fresh water, breakfast (following your pet's normal routine), and plenty of attention. Throughout the day, your pet will enjoy supervised playtime, outdoor potty breaks, walks if requested, and lots of cuddles and affection. My golden retriever is very gentle, friendly, and loves other dogs, so if your pup enjoys canine companionship, they'll have a calm playmate too. We also have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, sniff, and burn off energy. Every pet is different, so I tailor activities to their personality and energy level. Whether your dog loves playing fetch, going for walks, lounging in the shade, or curling up on the couch for belly rubs, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can see how much fun they're having while you're away.

Before your pet stays with us, I'd love to know their normal routine, feeding schedule, potty schedule, energy level, and any medical needs or medications. Please let me know about any allergies, fears, anxieties, or behaviors I should be aware of, such as separation anxiety, resource guarding, escape tendencies, or reactivity around other dogs or people. I'd also like to know what your pet enjoys most! Favorite toys, treats, walking habits, sleeping arrangements, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. The more I know about your pet, the better I can keep their routine consistent and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.
