-Accepting new clients who are looking for consecutive weekly walks and occasionally accepting overnight sitting. Holidays are always available. First come first serve basis. No double booking. -Weekends are unavailable for walking since I’m in school 8-5pm, Sat-Sun. Please read below~ For personalized service without extra fees, please feel free to message me directly. I am no longer accepting bookings directly from Rover as they charge both you and I 35-35% for each booking. I offer my services both through Rover and my dedicated business, Canine Care Services, where I prioritize the wellness and care of dogs. (Website is currently under development, message me please, thank you) With over 10 years of experience, I have developed a deep passion for canine health. My business features handmade holistic products, including treats, first aid ointments, and toothpaste. Additionally, I have worked as an assistant at a dog training company, where I gained valuable experience in training, boarding, and grooming. As a devoted dog mom to a wonderful Belgian Malinois who passed away last July, I truly understand the desire to provide the very best for your pet. I look forward to supporting you and your furry companions!

House Sitting • Sep 14, 2026

MJ watched our anxious elderly Morkie for a week in September 2026. We joke that he is an emotional support dog, in the sense that he requires our emotional support, so we were worried that he would be a nervous wreck if we left him with a sitter. MJ was an excellent communicator and seemed very gentle and patient with him during her visit, so we decided to trust her to take care of him. She sent daily updates and photos, never giving us any reason to be concerned while we enjoyed our vacation. When we returned and MJ brought him back, he was fine, and he had a normal breakfast, morning walk, and nap. So we think that's a five star review from him, since he was just his normal self after a week with MJ.

Exceptional care! MJ took excellent care of our Bernedoodle puppy, she sent us updates and pictures throughout and our pup, Elvie, truly loved her time with MJ. Elvie has an abundance of energy and MJ kept her active and stimulated, she also brought over a snuffle mat which was such a hit we went out and bought one right away. Would 100% recommend MJ for your dogwalking or dogsitting needs.

MJ was fantastic and exactly what I was looking for. Organized, punctual, knowledgeable, kind, and my dog absolutely loved her. Would definitely recommend MJ to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker or sitter.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about MJ! She watched my sweet guy Rothko while I was traveling internationally and I was completely at ease knowing that my pup was in great care. Each day I received pictures and an end of day overview detailing all their fun walks, enrichment activities, eating report, and play time. Rothko looked like he was genuinely enjoying himself the whole time. Not only did she do a fantastic job taking care of my pup, but she also left the house sparkling! Linens were cleaned, things were spotless, and everything was in its usual place (tough to do since I’m unbelievably OCD about that kind of thing). I will absolutely be booking again with MJ in the future!

MJ, with only a one day notice provided excellent house sitting services for my 2 year old German Shorthaired Pointer. Sherman is also a large and strong GSP and MJ handled him with such delicate and professional care. MJ went above and beyond to provide training, and improved Shermans leash aggression. I just can't say enough about how grateful I am that Rover has such quality people like MJ. I feel like I found my Rover. Can't wait to book again.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for your pets in their home by ensuring I follow food portions, enough water throughout the day. Of course, impliment play time and exercise through walking or basic training. And most importantly give them lots of love and comfort while the pet parent is away.

A typical day

I enjoy activities that are mentally and physically stimulating to the dog. Take our time in the sun, looking for a nice park or a patch of green grass so they can sniff all they want and potty happily

Communication is essential when caring for pets. It’s important for me to understand each dog’s temperament, any anxiety triggers they may have, and their behavior towards other dogs and humans. This information allows me to provide the best care tailored to their individual needs.
