Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, preferences and any special needs before care begins. I focus in creating a calm, secure, and stress-free environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I closely supervise pets during walks, outdoor time, and interactions with other animals and I always follow the care instructions provided. I understand that trust is earned, which is why I provide regular updates, photos, and communication throughout each visit.

Information Mitchell S. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, l'd love to know about their daily routine, personality, energy level, and any special needs they may have. Information about feeding schedules, medications, favorite activities, triggers, fears, leash behavior, and how they interact with other people or animals helps me provide the best possible care. I also appreciate knowing any unique quirks that make your pet who they are whether they insist on sleeping with a favorite toy, prefer a certain walking route, or need extra reassurance during storms. The more I know ahead of time, the more comfortable, safe, and enjoyable their experience will be while you're away.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I like to tailor activities to their energy level, personality, and preferences. A typical day may include walks around the neighborhood, outdoor playtime, games of fetch, enrichment activities, plenty of belly rubs, and lots of one-on-one attention. For more active dogs, I'm happy to provide extra exercise and play sessions, while lower-energy or senior pets can enjoy a more relaxed day filled with companionship and cuddles. Beyond physical activity, I make sure pets receive plenty of mental stimulation and affection throughout the day. Whether your dog loves adventures, playing with toys, lounging on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, my goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you're away. And of course, you'll receive regular photo updates so you can follow along on all the fun.

Trusted care. Happy tails.

Pet care experience

If your dog loves attention, belly rubs, and being treated like family, we’ll get along great. I’ve spent 20+ years caring for dogs of all personalities, including my own Alaskan Malamute and Bernese Mountain Dog. My experience spans dogs of every size, from gentle giants like Great Danes to beagles and even Yorkshire Terriers. Because of that, i’m comfortable handling everything from high-energy play sessions and long walks to relaxed cuddle time and specialized care routines. I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pet with someone new. I myself am a regular user of Rover for my own dogs. That is why I focus on creating a safe, stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Expect regular updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands.
