0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Availability

I work full time from home with a flexible schedule so I am open for drop ins, walks and house sitting. I also can accept last minute bookings. When in your home I would love to do whatever that is that makes them most comfortable in their usual routine (walks, dog park, fetch, tug of war, tummy rubs, or just some quiet company).

Information Robin T. would like to know about your pet

I am confident I can care for you dog/s no matter their personality or needs. Together we can come up with a plan for them to be safe, comfortable and cared for.

A typical day

A typical day varies based on your dog and their preferences. Examples: - 30 minute walk would include around your neighborhood getting ample exercise but also the opportunity for some good sniffs and to enjoy the fresh air. - 30 minute drop in includes potty breaks, feeding if needed, playtime and of course plenty of pets and snuggles. - Basic house sitting includes staying overnight with your pup so they have company and comfort on their own home, along with daytime care every 3-4 hours while you’re away for potty breaks, playtime, meals and snuggles.

Loving & Reliable Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Some of my earliest memories involve our family dogs, which is why I understand firsthand that pets are truly family members. My sweet girl, Libby, recently crossed the rainbow bridge after 16 wonderful years together. I had the privilege of caring for her through every stage of life, from an energetic puppy to a beloved senior. While I’m not quite ready to welcome another dog of my own, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours as if they were part of my family. In addition to being a devoted dog owner for the past 16 years, I volunteered with a local dog rescue, where I gained experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable administering medications, assisting with feeding, and providing the extra patience and attention that some pets may need. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

Robin is every pet parent’s dream! As a fellow dog lover and previous dog owner (RIP Libby 😢), Robin knows exactly what it takes to make fur babies happy. She knows all the right scratch spots for my Nova, and loves taking my beagle Bagel on long walks filled with all the sniffs and smells he could want. If you need a loving, punctual, and trustworthy sitter - Robin is for you!
