Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong Dog Lover & Dog Mom
I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and grew up with dogs, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I currently have a three-year-old Goldendoodle of my own, and I also foster dogs and cats and volunteer with local animal rescues. Through fostering, I’ve cared for animals with different personalities, ages, energy levels, and needs, and understand the importance of patience and helping each pet feel safe and comfortable. I’m an avid walker and love being outside, so dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy. I have a calm, patient demeanor and am attentive to each dog’s individual personality, energy level, and routine. I’m comfortable with young, energetic dogs as well as pets who may be shy, nervous, or simply need a little extra patience and attention. As a pet owner and foster myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animal. I’ll treat your pet the way I’d want someone to treat mine: with lots of love, attention, patience, and care. I’m responsible, communicative, and dependable, and your pet’s safety and happiness will always come first. You can also expect plenty of updates and photos along the way!

Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for someone’s pet. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and do my best to keep pets on their normal routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and any specific household rules or preferences. I’m very attentive on walks and when entering or leaving the home, and I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure. I have a calm and patient approach and give each pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me. My experience fostering dogs, cats, and newborn kittens has taught me how different every animal can be, especially when they are shy, nervous, energetic, or adjusting to someone new. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m also extremely respectful of their space and privacy. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing, and I’ll treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
Ratings and reviews
Rebecca was THE BEST pet sitter for my dog. She cared for him like he was her pet, and was super empathetic to his anxiety of being left alone. She was extremely professional and kept me constantly in the loop. She was super adaptable and was willing to add late night visits to accommodate my pup better. She even let my pup hang out with her dog, and I know he loved getting to hang out with another dog. I can’t recommend her enough!!
Takes such amazing care of my very young puppy! Great communication and definitely gives peace of mind during long work days.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the day. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and can often accommodate last-minute requests or schedule changes. I love having the flexibility to spend time with animals during my day and am here and ready to help whenever you and your pet need me!
