Pet care fits seamlessly into my life since I work completely remote and have the flexibility to set my own hours. I live in a super pet friendly neighborhood with more than 5 dog parks within a 0.5 mile radius and a beautiful river walkway across the street from me. I’m available for pet sitting whenever needed, whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or boarding. I love being able to plan my schedule around caring for pets, making sure they get all the attention and care they need while their owners are away!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a safe, comfortable space with plenty of room to relax and play. I keep their routine as close to normal as possible, with regular feeding times, walks, and lots of play and cuddle time. I also give them personal attention to help them feel at ease while they’re away from home. For pet care at my client’s home, I stick to the pet’s usual routine and ensure they’re comfortable in their own environment. I make sure their needs are met—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I also keep homes tidy and secure, giving clients peace of mind while they’re away.

Information Pooja B. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know your pet’s routine, personality, and preferences ahead of time. This includes their feeding schedule, any medications, favorite activities, and comfort items. Let me know if they have any fears, like thunderstorms or loud noises, or specific triggers, like other animals or certain environments. Understanding their health history, including any allergies or past injuries, also helps me provide the best care. The more I know, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home!

A typical day

When I watch pets, it’s all about making their time with me fun and enriching! For dogs, I love going on adventurous walks, playing fetch, or tug-of-war For cats, I bring out their inner hunter with feather wands, laser pointers, and puzzle toys, or just spend time cuddling and chatting if they’re more laid-back. Every pet gets personalized attention to ensure they’re entertained, happy, and feeling loved!

10/10 would leave our pup with Pooja again! She is very experienced with dog sitting, and it was clear our dog had a great time. Pooja was easy to communicate with throughout our time away, regularly providing us photo/video updates. Thank you Pooja!

Pooja was so great with our pup chai! She sent us constant photos and updates throughout the day and took chai out on walks and playtime multiple times. Chai was totally tuckered out! Will definitely leave chai at her place again :)
