Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and I love making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. For the past five years, family and friends have trusted me to care for both their dogs and cats, including overnight stays. I recently spent 10 days house sitting for a family friend while caring for their 100+ pound Goldendoodle. We went on multiple walks each day, enjoyed plenty of playtime, stayed on a consistent potty schedule, and, of course, got lots of cuddles in. I know how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. At home, I have a 14-year-old cat who means the absolute world to me. Caring for her over the years has given me firsthand experience with the love, patience, and attention pets deserve every single day. I’m currently a senior pre-med student at the University of Maryland, so being dependable, organized, and attentive comes naturally to me. I have reliable transportation and would love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were part of my own family.
