Pet care experience

Hybrid WFH Pet Lover-Attentive Care

Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember! Growing up in a home full of different pets, I learned early on how to care for, respect, and communicate with animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve been actively caring for pets for over 15 years, including raising dogs from early puppyhood and helping train them in basic obedience and daily routines. Today, I bring that lifetime of hands-on experience to every pet I care for. Whether your dog needs structured puppy guidance, energetic exercise, or just a calm companion to lounge next to, I adapt my approach to fit their unique personality and your preferred routine. Lifetime of Experience: Over 15 years of hands-on pet care, including puppy raising, house-training, and basic obedience. Hybrid Work Schedule: I work from home a couple of days a week, offering frequent potty breaks, steady companionship, and flexible daytime walks. Versatile & Adaptable: Comfortable caring for multi-pet households, active dogs, shy or sensitive rescues, and birds or small animals. Clear & Frequent Communication: You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing! I send regular photo updates and detailed check-ins during every visit. I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own family’s animals. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member - reach out to schedule a meet-and-greet!

Rebecca took excellent care of my pup. She was extremely communicative, and I really appreciated all the sweet updates she sent throughout my travels. In every photo, I could tell Lew was happy, comfortable, and enjoying his own little weekend getaway. ☺️ Thank you, Rebecca, and see you again soon!

Rebecca was the sweetest host to my dog, Nox. First of all, I put in a request with her on a day she didn’t have available and she responded right away and accommodated me last minute. Secondly, her communication was excellent. This is so important to me because I worry constantly when I have to leave my dog in someone else’s care and I don’t like to bother anyone by requesting lots of updates, pictures, etc. Without me even having to ask, she sent pictures of their walks together, and even told me when he ate his food (another thing I worry about because he doesn’t eat when he’s nervous). She genuinely cares about animals and even has a beautiful bird of her own. We love Rebecca and will absolutely book her again!

Rebecca was great watching Caymus! Friendly, trustworthy, communicative and took the best care of our boy. She managed his schedule perfectly, took him on long walks and gave him plenty of love. 10/10 would recommend!

I was super extremely nervous to leave my dog and go for vacation, I prayed that I can find the right place for him so I can enjoy my very needed vacation, I found Rebeca here and thank God I really felt so comfortable from the first 5 min I met her, she is kind sweet and most importantly she cares, I just left him 2 min at her place to get first picture of him enjoying his 1st walk with her, you can tell she is an animal lover, she went above and beyond to make sure Ginger is happy and comfortable, now I know that I can enjoy more time off knowing he will be with someone who will treat him like a family♥️Rebeca I can’t thank you enough you are a treasure ♥️

Schedule

Because I work on a hybrid schedule, I offer a great balance of dedicated home time and flexible coverage. Here is exactly what that looks like for your pet: On Work-From-Home Days Constant Companionship: Your pet won't be left alone for long stretches. I work right alongside them, providing a quiet, comfortable environment where they can relax, snooze, or hang out by my desk. Flexible Potty Breaks & Mid-Day Walks: Instead of waiting hours for a single drop-in, your dog gets regular mid-day bathroom breaks every 2 to 3 hours, plus an afternoon walk to stretch their legs and burn off energy. Ideal for Special Needs: This schedule is perfect for puppies in house-training, senior dogs needing frequent outdoor trips, or anxious pets who thrive on having a human present throughout the day. On Office Days & Weekends Structured & Reliable Routines: On days I head into the office, I maintain clear, dependable morning, evening, and mid-day drop-in or walk schedules (if needed) so your pet’s routine stays completely uninterrupted. Weekend Availability: My weekends are fully open for longer walks, extended sitting, and dedicated quality time.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal with the highest level of care. Pet-Safe & Secure Home: My living space is completely pet-proofed, quiet, and secure, ensuring a calm, hazard-free environment for relaxing or working alongside me on WFH days. Neighborhood & Walk Safety: When out on walks, I stick to safe, clean routes, maintain full awareness of surrounding dogs and traffic, and keep all dogs securely leashed at all times. Health & Routine Adherence: Strict adherence to your existing household rules, dietary guidelines, and feeding schedules to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. Meet & Greets: I always offer an initial Meet & Greet prior to any booking to ensure we are a perfect fit, discuss any specific behavioral traits or medical needs, and make sure your pet feels 100% comfortable. Clear Emergency Protocol: In the rare event of an issue or medical need, I will communicate with you immediately and have quick access to local emergency veterinary services.

A typical day

On my work-from-home days, your pet will enjoy a cozy environment with regular outdoor breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention while I work. On office days, I maintain structured morning and evening routines to ensure they stay happy, exercised, and on their normal schedule.

We’ll also confirm your home rules (crate/furniture policies) and emergency vet contacts so I can keep their schedule perfectly seamless and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable while in my care!
