Pet care experience

Your peace of mind is top of mind!

I’ve been around animals my entire life and have about 15 years of hands-on pet care experience, including lots of boarding over the years. I’m comfortable with everything from easygoing companions to pets who need a little more patience and attention—including senior dogs, oral medications, cones, persistent licking/skin issues, and some less-than-perfect habits. I’ve cared for Labs, Dachshunds, Corgis, Pugs, Blue Heelers, German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Huskies, Belgian Malinois, Dobermans, Pit Bulls, and plenty of lovable mixed breeds, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I also have experience caring for cats, including hairless cats. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I pay attention to their routines, quirks, comfort, and all the little things that make them them. And I genuinely love notes—the more, the better! Tell me their routine, their weird habits, what they love, what they hate, where they insist on sleeping, and anything else you think I should know. There’s no such thing as too much information when it comes to making your pet feel comfortable and keeping their routine as normal as possible while you’re away.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I’m home full time, so pet care fits very naturally into my day. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I have plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, potty breaks, meals, medications, and whatever routine they’re used to at home. I’m happy to work around their normal schedule as much as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep a clean, calm, pet-friendly home with no children, resident pets, or smoking, which makes for a quieter, lower-stress environment for visiting pets. Pet areas and bedding are thoroughly cleaned between guests using products formulated for animal-care environments. I also run a powerful air purifier and keep the house at a comfortable 74°F. Pets are welcome in the common areas and on our shaded patio.
