Highlights
Pet care experience
Couple of dog lovers
This is a joint account with my girlfriend Julia and I. We both love being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I grew up raising a German Shepherd and, more recently, a shitzu and Maltese! Julia grew up raising a Toy poodle. We’re reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are in good hands. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, we make sure every pet gets patient, personalized care and plenty of attention. As a medical student, I’m highly responsible, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure, and I bring that same level of care and dependability to looking after pets. We’ll treat your pets like they’re our own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment
Creating a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for pets is my top priority. I always follow owners’ instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any behavioral preferences or restrictions. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I approach each animal with patience and attentiveness. I also believe communication is important, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos while they’re away.
