Pet care experience

Any and all animals!

Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter! With over 10 years of pet care experience and a lifelong love for animals, I bring a wealth of knowledge and dedication to every furry friend I encounter. Growing up surrounded by pets, including 2 dogs, 3 cats, and a tortoise (quite the zoo growing up!), I have developed a deep understanding of the unique needs and behaviors of all animals. From caring for energetic puppies to providing gentle attention for senior dogs, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every furry companion. As an avid runner, I'm thrilled to offer tailored exercise routines, including invigorating runs to keep your dog active and engaged. My background also includes volunteering at a veterinary clinic, providing me with valuable insights into pet health and emergency care. When you choose me as your pet sitter, you're not just getting a caregiver – you're gaining a compassionate companion who will treat your pet like family!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and providing a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether it's in my own home or yours. I ensure a secure environment by closely monitoring pets, using crates when necessary, and following any specific instructions provided by pet parents. Administering medications is something I handle with care and precision, ensuring that pets receive their medications on time and in the correct dosage. Playtime is a crucial part of pet care, and I make sure to engage with dogs in stimulating activities to keep them happy and entertained. I understand that each pet has unique needs and preferences, and I'm always open to learning and adapting to accommodate those needs. Clear communication with pet parents is key, and I strive to maintain trust by providing updates and addressing any concerns promptly. Your pet's well-being is my utmost priority, and I'm committed to creating a safe, loving, and enjoyable experience for them.

I just finished graduate school and I am available most weekdays, allowing ample time for walks, playtime, and cuddles. I am free all day on weekends, providing flexibility for extended care and leisurely activities with your pet. Whether it's a morning stroll before classes or a weekend adventure, I prioritize creating a balanced and enriching experience for your furry companion. With clear communication and a genuine passion for animals, I strive to ensure that your pet receives the attention and care they deserve while you're away.
