Highlights
Pet care experience
Pro Dog Trainer & Caretaker 8 years
I have 8 years of experience as a professional dog trainer, with additional hands-on background in dog boarding. That experience has given me the ability to work with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments, create structured routines, and calmly handle behavioral issues. I now bring those skills to dog walking, house sitting, and pet sitting—providing confident, consistent care for puppies, seniors, and every dog in between.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I provide attentive and reliable care in my clients’ homes, ensuring pets are comfortable in their familiar environment. For dog walking, I focus on safe, enjoyable outings tailored to each dog’s needs. When pet sitting or feeding, I follow the owner’s instructions closely, providing companionship, and playtime, and maintaining feeding schedules to keep pets happy and stress-free.

Schedule
Pet care is a flexible and integral part of my routine. My part-time job allows me to prioritize the care and attention pets need. I schedule my days around walking, feeding, and ensuring pets are happy and comfortable, regardless of my other commitments.

- Knowing a pet’s routine and needs ahead of time is essential for keeping them comfortable and safe. I always ask about feeding and medication schedules, potty and walk routines, any behavioral triggers or fears, training commands, and what helps them settle when their owner is away. Having clear vet and emergency contact info is also important. This helps me stick to their normal routine and provide calm, consistent care from the first visit.
