Highlights
Pet care experience
A paws-itive pet experience
I’ve been around animals my entire life, caring for dogs, cats, livestock, and small pets has always been second nature to me. My love for animals led me to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and later attend veterinary technician training, which gave me hands on experience in animal health, behavior, and care. With that background, I’m comfortable handling pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including those who may need a little extra patience or medical attention. Whether it’s giving medication, recognizing signs of stress, or just making sure your pet feels loved and secure, I take pride in providing thoughtful, knowledgeable care. I also live near Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon National Park, so if you’re planning a camping trip or outdoor adventure in the area, I’d be happy to care for your pet while you explore. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well being always come first. I treat every animal as if they were my own. 🐾

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet friendly environment where they can relax and feel at home. Whether it’s sticking to their usual routine, keeping a close eye during outdoor time, or making sure they always have fresh water and a cozy spot to rest. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that leaving your furry family member in someone else’s care requires trust. I communicate regularly with photo and message updates, so you can always see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re safe and happy. My home is secure, and I supervise all interactions to ensure every pet feels comfortable. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or quiet space, I adapt to their personality and needs to make their stay as stress free as possible.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day starts with a morning potty break, fresh water, and breakfast (following each pet’s normal routine). Throughout the day, pets will enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks, along with walks if requested. I’ll make sure they have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at home. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how they’re doing. In the evening, pets will have dinner, more playtime or cuddles, a final potty break, and then settle in for a restful night’s sleep. I’ll always follow your pet’s specific feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special care instructions you provide.
