Kind, Conscientious, & Capable

Pet care experience

Raised around a menagerie of creatures growing up, I have always felt called to service those in need, especially the furry friends. I have degree in biology, have experience working as a technician in a veterinary hospital, and created my own business as a care provider (aka pet, home manager & child caretaker) at the age of 17. Currently I work part-time which leaves me perfectly available for morning time routines (walks, cuddles, feedings, etc) and wide open for afternoon and evening care as well. I love to offer physical affection to pets. Laying in the floor or inviting them into my lap helps me feel "on their level". Walks and playtime nurture trust and excitement so I like to create space for this *at least* 2x/day. I enjoy capturing precious moments and sharing them with clients at least once per day. I am willing to crate, administer medication, brush/groom, train and more if necessary.

Lumin is a great communicator and kept us up to date the entire time. Two of our three dogs are skittish and that could be frustrating to a pet sitter. She handled it well!

Lumin was an incredible pet/home sitter. She has a calm and nurturing nature about her, that had us feeling confident leaving our pup in her care. Buckley almost immediately felt at ease with her, as did we. She kept us updated periodically with photos. She also left our home incredibly clean, going above and beyond with extra laundry and house cleaning. I will certainly be calling on Lumin again for her services, and recommend her wholeheartedly.

Lumin is an excellent sitter. I had to come to her with a last-minute request and she went above and beyond to make sure my trip was as seamless as possible. She took the time to make sure we were a good fit and was wonderful at communicating with me. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands.

Lumin recently took great care of our two pups on multiple stays in our home-both overnight and drop in. She is very good with communicating exactly what went on during the visit. She matched her approach with our two year old that loves to play and run along with our 14 year old that needs TLC and meds. They both seemed happy when we got home!

Information Lumin L. would like to know about your pet

In order to provide the most attentive care please disclose ahead of time if your pup have any special needs, medications, feeding instructions, health conditions, behavioral patterns I should know about? Does your pup bolt out the door when it opens? Is your pup protective/aggressive around food or toys? Will they be excited to tag along (in the car) for a short errand or more comfortable at home?

A typical day

I'll take the pups to some near by trials to get lots of sensory stimulation and exercise! I keep lots of extra sticks for fetch plus a few balls and a frizbee in the trunk (along with a water bowl and gallon jug of water) so were always well equipped for daily joy rides and outings.
