Pet care experience

Your pet’s second favorite person!

Hi! Animals have pretty much always been the center of my life. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, have been pet sitting since I was 12, earned my degree in Animal Science from Virginia Tech, and spent two years working professionally with horses after college. I currently work in veterinary client care and have plenty of experience with everything from daily care and medications to the occasional pet who has very specific opinions about how things should be done. I have my own Australian Shepard, Ripley, so I’m no stranger to zoomies, long walks, and pup cups! I’m comfortable with pets of all different personalities and needs, and I’m happy to stick as closely as possible to whatever routine makes your pet happiest. I also know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so pictures and updates are always part of the deal!

Schedule

My work schedule varies throughout the week, which gives me flexibility for pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I keep my availability updated and am happy to work with you to find care that fits your pet’s normal routine. When I’m home, I spend lots of time walking, playing, and going on adventures with my own dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having company! I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and any other preferences you have. For pets staying with me, I’ll always make sure everyone is comfortable together and has their own space when needed. In your home, I’ll treat your pet, their routine, and your space with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I’m happy to match their usual routine! Depending on what they enjoy, we can go for walks, have plenty of playtime, explore outside, or just hang out and get some cuddles in. I’m also happy to keep things quieter for older or lower-energy pets.
