Pet care experience

WFH • Fenced Yard • 1-on-1 Care⭐️🐾

Growing up in a home filled with the joyful barks of dogs and the gentle chirps of a parakeet, my love for animals started early. For over a decade, I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from playful pups and curious cats to turtles and farm animals. My passion doesn't stop at basic care—I'm an adventurer at heart and love taking dogs on outdoor escapades. Whether it's a leisurely walk through the park or a thrilling hike in the hills, I'm here to ensure your furry friend gets the exercise and excitement they crave (couch potatoes welcome too) and treat them like family.

Schedule

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work remotely with only an occasional in-office day (about once a quarter), so I’m home most of the day. I only leave briefly for the gym or occasional errands, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet like family and follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Since I work from home, dogs get plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and provide regular photo updates for owners. My friendly, fully vaccinated dog enjoys having canine visitors, and introductions are always done safely.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet gets plenty of playtime, sniffing, and supervised outdoor time in my fully fenced yard. I love playing fetch, providing enrichment toys and puzzles, and practicing basic commands (if desired). Since I work from home, your pup will have companionship throughout the day. I’m also an active person, so walks and even hikes can be part of their stay if they’re a good fit for your dog’s energy level and your preferences.

Before the stay, I’d love to know your pet’s routine, temperament, energy level, favorite activities, any medical needs, and how they do around other dogs. The more I know, the better I can provide a safe, personalized, home-away-from-home experience!
