Lover of ALL dogs and cats :)

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats of every kind for the last 9 years. However, I have grown up with an assortment of animals all my life. My family used to have dogs, cats, turtles, bunnies, hamsters, and reptiles. Over the years, family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, and cuddle their pets. I hope I can provide the same level of comfort to you and your fur family.

Murphy was a wonderful in-home dog sitter for my little cavalier spaniel, who prefers constant companionship. She went over and above, caring for Gracie and my home. Was great about keeping me updated and sent lots of pictures. She even took Gracie (with my advanced persmission) on a coffee shop date., which she loves Will definitely hire Murphey again in the future!

Murphy was a wonderful in-home sitter! She took amazing care of my energetic pup, handled everything super responsibly and left my house clean and cared-for. I would definitely hire her again.

Safety, trust & environment

My top priority is to ensure the safety and wellbeing of pets in a client's home. I start by securing the home and checking for any potential hazards. Throughout the stay, I follow the owner's instructions on feeding, keeping bowls clean, walking, etc … In addition, I provide attention and care, and communicate with the owner about any unique needs or medical care. Trust and responsibility are essential for quality care and happy, healthy pets.

Information Murphy D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog needs special accommodations with walks, feeding, medication, rest time, etc … I am also open to work on any training you and your pup are pursing so the training you have put in with your fur babies are persevered.

A typical day

Fun activities can range from exploring a near by park, playing games such as fetch, walking around exploring all the sounds and smells my neighbor has to offer, resting on the couch with cuddles, and much more! Depending on your dogs activity level I am up to accommodate their needs in a fun interactive way both mentally and physically.
