Highlights
Pet care experience
I love all dogs big and small!
I volunteer at the Dekalb County Animal Services every week, I am very comfortable around all dogs. My formal training from the animal shelter sets me apart because I understand the importance of safety, and I have the skills to work with dogs of all behavior levels. I post videos of the shelter dogs on my TikTok page (SitStayScroll) to help get them adopted. I grew up with dogs and I have one rescue of my own. I have been pet-sitting for neighbors and friends since I could ride a bike. I love to to look after your furry friend!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Services offered will include: - Boarding at my home: Can't wait to spoil your dog! My dog is super pet-friendly, I have a fenced in yard, and a Doggy Door so that your furry friend can spend as much time outside as they would like. I have extra dog bowls for food/water, and plenty of dog toys. - Drop-in Visits at client's home: I am available to stop by to play with your dog, take them outside, cuddle with them, and keep them company. I keep a fanny pack full of treats and doggy bags with me at all times. - Doggy Day Care: Similar to the boarding, this would be done at my home. Great opportunity for higher energy dogs as my dog and I would be happy to play with your furry friend all day to get some of that energy out - Dog Walking: I understand the importance of being reliable, on time, and communicative. I have experience with dogs that do not have the best leash manners; I am not afraid to walk a strong dog. I treat every pet like it is my own & I love to spoil them. I have a fenced in yard, and one friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. I can crate the dogs if needed. Because I will be home with them all day I can adjust care to a dog's needs. I will share regular updates on your pet for any of the services. I know it's important to know how your best pal is doing!
Pets
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy, active, and engaged! Depending on their personality and energy level, we'll enjoy walks, playtime, treats, games of fetch, and plenty of cuddles and attention. Also happy to spend quiet time watching a movie with pets who prefer relaxing. I just want to ensure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you are way. I'm happy to tailor the routine to your dog to make sure they get all the exercise, enrichment, and affection they need!
