I focus on creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and household preferences, and I communicate reliably with updates and photos.
Ratings and reviews
A wonderful first experience for us on Rover! Nancy was attentive and dependable and a great match with our creature. Thanks, Nancy!
Nancy is an ideal sitter. She was attentive to care instructions and comes with experience around fully trained service animals- a big must for me. At the meet and greet she took notes and instantly hit it off with my furry baby. Nancy is must if you want safe, fun and compassionate company for your pet. I appreciated the high level professionalism and occasional photo updates. Would highly recommend.
Nancy cared for our 13-year-old chihuahua Charli for a week while we were on vacation. Charli has a minor heart condition and needs medication daily, so it was important that she was in caring and conscientious hands. Nancy couldn’t have been a better choice! She stayed in our home with Charli and sent us regular, thoughtful updates via text. We could tell from the photos that Charli was happy and very comfortable with her new friend. And we also had the peace of mind that our home was also being taken care of. We would absolutely recommend Nancy without hesitation!
Nancy clearly loves dogs; she is responsible and dependable, best of all I have no problem trusting her with a key to my home. She’s my first choice for an overnight stay!
Nancy is a great caregiver for your animal! She is kind and thoughtful. My dog loves seeing her and I appreciate knowing he’s getting a walk and taking care of business while I’m at work. She’s a lifesaver and I appreciate having her around!
Nancy walks my pomeranian Gustav in the morning. Often she brings her dog Coco and let's them play. She knows how to train Gustav and I learn from watching her. She is quite experienced with training dogs and is always happy to help me learn what to do. She is kind and dependable and trustworthy. I'm sure that she would be a good fit for anyone who needs help with their dogs.

Schedule
I currently offer pet sitting on a selective basis so I can provide focused, dependable care and maintain consistent routines for each pet. I require a meet and greet initial assessment for you to meet me and for me to assess your dog. Best fit will be with dogs who enjoy the company of my dog Coco (a Shih Tzu Dauchshund mix) but evening visits, weekends, vacation coverage, and overnight care are fine for dogs that perfer human company. I keep my service area manageable to ensure reliable communication, punctual visits, and attentive care for every animal.
