Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted pet caregiver, happy pets!
I absolutely love pets! I adore anything with paws. At a party, I always seek out the resident dog or cat to say hello. I carry a leash, cat carrier, food, and water in my car, just in case I encounter a dog or cat in need. Pet sitting isn’t merely a “side gig” for me. I have professional experience in pet care and dedicated numerous hours volunteering with local rescues and shelters. I have professional experience in pet care and dedicated numerous hours volunteering with local rescues and shelters. I ask numerous questions; although they may seem redundant, my experience has taught me which ones reveal vital details you may consider routine, while also respecting your guidelines. Whether you’re away due to vacation, work, or other reasons, my aim is to truly understand your pet's needs and your comfort levels when leaving them, including communication frequency and pictures. I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats, administering oral, transdermal, and injection medications.

Schedule
As an experienced pet sitter, I ensure happy pets by dedicating ample time daily. Working from home enables customized care and companionship, prioritizing their well-being in my routine.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I’m extremely safety conscious and use backup measures to make sure that your pets are kept away from harm. * I have 2 front doors and 2 back doors so there’s so there’s always a closed door so your dog can’t accidentally escape. * I leash up/remove leashes while inside so that your dog can't run free in a split second. * In addition to always having a secure grip, I also use a large carabiner to keep your dog leashed safely to my crossbody dog walking bag.

A typical day
I follow the pace of your dog. Is your dog all business while on a walk? Fantastic- I welcome the exercise! Does your dog prefer to stroll and sniff? Sounds great! I always appreciate the opportunity to enjoy a leisurely stroll. If ball time in your backyard is a better fit, just let me know!

- I would like to know as many details as possible before visiting/walking your pets. * When and how much your pet gets fed.

If so, how long and do you keep a specific schedule? A treat at a certain time or before/after a certain activity? Crating? * How does your dog react to other dogs, people, bicycles, cats, squirrels, etc. while on a walk? * Does your dog know commands? How well does your dog walk on leash; loose leash, pulls, etc.? * Is your dog food motivated? * What are their favorite toys? * Are there any current or recent health or behavioral issues?
