Highlights
Pet care experience
Comfortable With All Kinds of Pets!
Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters throughout my life and have personally adopted 6 dogs, 5 rats, 1 cat, and even a chinchilla—each one bringing joy and unforgettable memories. Currently, I share my home with my sweet pup, Xena. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I have strong knowledge of dog training, behavior, and wellness, and I’m comfortable caring for dogs with medical needs or special quirks. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or structured care, your dog will be in loving, capable hands with me.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Pakuna did a great job taking care of my 4 cats, each with their own individual idiosyncrasies, personalities and abilities to get along with one another. She also gave medications to one of the cats on schedule and with no issues. She quickly learned how to manage them (provided treats were well used) and made sure they were happy and healthy. The photos she provided after each of her visits helped me see that they were being well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to request her again to take care of my cat crew.
Fantastic! Pakuna was amazing. We will absolutely ask her to watch our Luna next time we leave town.
She is the best
She is the best ever! I am using her weekly.
Pakuna was wonderful and took great care of our kitties. They don’t have complicated meds but they require special care and she was friendly in our meet and greet, took great notes, followed instructions, and sent great pictures and notes throughout the visit. Highly recommend Pakuna for your pet care.
Pakuna took great care of our dog! Our dog was happy and healthy when we picked her up after boarding. She got lots of walks and lots of attention. Our dog has tons of health issues and restrictions, but Pakuna handled everything perfectly. She is thorough and pays attention to dog behavior very well. She will be our first choice for boarding from now on 😊

Schedule
I currently work full time but I live very close to my work so I am home at lunch time to check on things and give a potty break. I have no long commute or traffic to worry about. On the weekends, I stay in the area or take pups out for hikes!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Boarding: To introduce, your pup will have an entire room gated off with a baby gate to acclimate to the new environment. Then, your pup will be welcomed to explore the home.
Pets
A typical day
For boarding: I do NOT have a fenced yard but I have plenty of access to grassy areas where we can hang out on a longer leash. Your dog will have a minimum of 3 bathroom breaks/walks per day, ~20 minutes each and 1 long (45-60 min) walk per day. We love walking the trails at local parks. If your dog likes going for car rides, they will be joining us too! (weather-dependent, of course)
