Pet care experience
Dog Mom of 3, Hire Me!
As a dedicated pet care professional with over 15 years of hands-on experience, I offer compassionate and reliable services for your furry family members. Having personally cared for a senior cat throughout her 15-year life and currently managing a household of three large-breed dogs, I possess a deep understanding of the unique needs, temperaments, and physical requirements of animals at every stage of life. I am well-equipped to handle the strength and energy of large breeds while maintaining the gentle patience required for senior pets. Whether you require structured walks, engaging playtime, routine drop-in visits, or dedicated overnight care, I am committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for your pets. Services Offered: Drop-in Visits: Reliable check-ins for feeding, medication, and companionship. Exercise & Walks: Specialized experience in managing and walking large breeds safely. Overnight Care: Attentive in-home sitting to maintain your pet's comfort and routine. Playtime: High-energy engagement for big dogs or gentle interaction for smaller or older pets. I look forward to providing your pets with the same level of love and expert care I give my own. If you are looking for overnight boarding or Doggy Daycare we are less than 5 minutes from Bradley Airport

Amazing dog walker always consistent and communicative. Automatic hire all the time!
