Pet care experience

Tail wagging care you can count on!

As a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, I understand how much your furry friends mean to you. I’m a proud pet parent to my 8-year old Chihuahua mix, Sam, and my 14-year old tabby cat, Mia, so I know firsthand the importance of ensuring pets feel loved, safe, and comfortable while their humans are away. I have experience with both puppies/kittens and elder dogs/cats. I have experience administering medication for dogs with special needs. I know older babies need a little more patience and a gentler touch. Whether your pet needs companionship, daily walks, or special care, I’m here to treat them like family. With my extensive experience and deep passion for animals, you can trust that your beloved pets are in caring and capable hands. Let’s make their time away from you as enjoyable as possible!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I take an attentive approach while respecting their space and preferences. I stick closely to their established routines, ensuring their pets feel secure and comfortable in familiar surroundings. Whether it’s feeding, administering medication, walks, or cuddle time, I prioritize their well-being and happiness, just as I do with my own pets. I know every animal is different, so I take time to get to know them and their preferences.

Every pet is unique, and knowing their needs helps me provide the best care possible! I’d love to hear about your pet’s daily routine, energy level, and favorite activities. Are there any medical needs, allergies, or dietary restrictions? How do they interact with other pets or people? Let me know their quirks, preferences, and anything that makes them feel safe and happy. Your insights are key to ensuring your pet has a positive and stress-free experience with me!
