Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm environment with constant supervision and clear boundaries. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and crate preferences. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to make sure your dog feels secure, respected, and genuinely cared for.

Schedule
I currently work part-time so my schedule allows me to be present and attentive during care. I intentionally plan my days so pets receive consistent supervision, structured activity, and quality fun time. I don’t overbook, and I prioritize making sure each pet in my care feels safe, engaged, and well looked after!

- Please share anything that helps me understand your pet better—medical needs, anxiety triggers, food sensitivities, training cues, or social preferences. The more I know, the better I can create a smooth and positive experience. I especially appreciate knowing how they do with new environments and other dogs.
