A typical day

Morning: Wake up and attend to personal morning routines, including breakfast and getting ready for the day. Take dogs for a morning walk or outdoor playtime to help them burn off energy and relieve themselves. Feed dogs breakfast according to their respective feeding schedules and dietary requirements. Spend some quality time with each dog, engage in play, and/or other activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Afternoon: If weather permits, brief walk or outdoor play session. Engage in activities that cater to their individual preferences and energy levels. Evening/Night: If weather permits, brief walk or outdoor play session. Provide both dogs with ample opportunities for mental stimulation and relaxation, such as puzzle toys or calming activities. Spend quality time with dogs before bedtime, reinforcing bonds and providing comfort and reassurance. Ensure all dogs have access to their designated sleeping areas and any necessary comfort items. If needed, attend to any nighttime bathroom breaks or other requests from the dogs. Throughout the day, I will maintain open communication with the dog owners, providing updates on how their pets are doing and addressing any concerns or questions they may have. Additionally, I will be flexible and adaptable to the needs of your dog and make adjustments to the daily routine as necessary to ensure their well being and happiness. I will always ensure dogs have access to fresh water and a comfortable resting area for afternoon naps. I will always monitor the dogs for any signs of discomfort, illness, or behavior issues, and address any concerns promptly.

Pet care experience

As an experienced dog sitter, I've dedicated myself to providing top-notch care for our four legged friends, ensuring their well being and happiness while their owners are away. With a passion for animals and years of hands on experience, I strive to create a safe, nurturing environment where dogs thrive and owners can trust their beloved pets are in capable hands. Reliability and trustworthiness are at the core of my services. I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone else's furry family member, and I take it seriously. From punctual feeding schedules to consistent exercise routines, I prioritize consistency to ensure dogs feel secure and comfortable in my care. Communication is key in any successful dog sitting arrangement. I maintain open and transparent lines of communication with owners, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured while they're away. Whether it's a quick text to report on a successful walk or a detailed conversation about any concerns, I strive to be accessible and responsive. Safety is paramount in everything I do. I conduct thorough assessments of each environment to identify and mitigate any potential hazards, whether it's securing a backyard fence or removing toxic plants from indoor spaces. Above all, I approach dog sitting with genuine affection and respect for these incredible animals. I understand the profound bond between dogs and their owners, and I aim to honor that bond by providing the same level of care and companionship in their absence. Every wagging tail and grateful lick reminds me why I love what I do, and I am committed to being the best dog sitter possible for both dogs and their owners alike.

Maria was great, she really got Mabel (our dog) to come out of her shell and she had a wonderful time staying with her. Really great communication and the photo and video updates were something we looked forward to daily! Will definitely rebook with Maria.
