Your Dog Deserves More

Over 10 years caring for dogs of all types—including high-energy breeds, seniors, and dogs with behavioral challenges. I've successfully boarded dogs with food aggression and anxiety, always providing a calm, safe, and structured environment. What Sets Me Apart: 🐾 Experience with difficult behaviors like food aggression 🐾 Comfortable with administering meds or special diets 🐾 Patient and confident handling all breeds and temperaments 🐾 Reliable and calm under pressure I treat every dog like family—with structure, respect, and lots of tail wags. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I’ll keep your pup safe, active, and cared for like my own.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting with a high level of care and attention. In a pet’s home, I stick to their regular routine as closely as possible—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions like medication or crate time. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and not alone while their owners are away. For walks and drop-ins, I focus on giving them exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. During house sitting, I also keep the home tidy and secure, so you come back to a happy pet and a well-cared-for space.

Schedule

Pet care is a regular part of my daily life, and I love building my schedule around it. I'm currently available mid-mornings through early evenings, which makes me a great fit for mid-day walks, afternoon check-ins, or evening feeding routines. I’m reliable, flexible, and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need—whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk. Right now, I have open spots in my schedule, so your pet will get plenty of dedicated one-on-one time!
